<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_journal_add_match()</function> adds
|
|
|
|
|
a match by which to filter the entries of the journal
|
|
|
|
|
file. Matches applied with this call will filter what
|
|
|
|
|
can be iterated through and read from the journal file
|
|
|
|
|
via calls like
|
|
|
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_next</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
|
|
|
and
|
|
|
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_get_data</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. Matches
|
|
|
|
|
are of the form <literal>FIELD=value</literal>, where
|
|
|
|
|
the field part is a short uppercase string consisting
|
|
|
|
|
only of 0-9, A-Z and the underscore. It may not begin
|
|
|
|
|
with two underscores or be the empty string. The value
|
|
|
|
|
part may be any value, including binary. If a match is
|
|
|
|
|
applied only entries with this field set will be
|
|
|
|
|
iterated. Multiple matches may be active at the same
|
|
|
|
|
time: if they apply to different fields only entries
|
|
|
|
|
with both fields set like this will be iterated, if
|
|
|
|
|
they apply to the same fields only entries where the
|
|
|
|
|
field takes one of the specified values will be
|
|
|
|
|
iterated. Well known fields are documented in
|
|
|
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.journal-fields</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>. Whenever
|
|
|
|
|
a new match is added the current entry position is
|
|
|
|
|
reset, and
|
|
|
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_next</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> (or a similar call)
|
|
|
|
|
needs to be called before entries can be read
|
|
|
|
|
again.</para>

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_journal_add_disjunction()</function>
|
|
|
|
|
may be used to insert a disjunction (i.e. logical OR)
|
|
|
|
|
in the match list. If this call is invoked all
|
2013-04-18 01:11:44 +00:00
|
|
|
|
previously added matches since the last invocation of
|
|
|
|
|
<function>sd_journal_add_disjunction()</function> or
|
|
|
|
|
<function>sd_journal_add_conjunction()</function> are
|
|
|
|
|
combined in an OR with all matches added afterwards,
|
|
|

until
|
|
|
|
|
<function>sd_journal_add_disjunction()</function> or
|
|
|
|
|
<function>sd_journal_add_conjunction()</function> is
|
|
|
|
|
invoked again to begin the next OR or AND
|
|
|
|
|
term. </para>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_journal_add_conjunction()</function>
|
|
|
|
|
may be used to insert a conjunction (i.e. logical AND)
|
|
|
|
|
in the match list. If this call is invoked all
|
|
|
|
|
previously added matches since the last invocation of
|
|
|
|
|
<function>sd_journal_add_conjunction()</function> are
|
|
|
|
|
combined in an AND with all matches added afterwards,
|
|
|
|
|
until
|
|
|
|
|
<function>sd_journal_add_conjunction()</function> is
|
|
|
|
|
invoked again to begin the next AND term. The
|
2012-07-13 20:18:17 +00:00
|
|
|
|
combination of
|
2013-04-18 01:11:44 +00:00
|
|
|
|
<function>sd_journal_add_match()</function>,
|
|
|
|
|
<function>sd_journal_add_disjunction()</function> and
|
|
|
|
|
<function>sd_journal_add_conjunction()</function> may
|
2012-07-13 20:18:17 +00:00
|
|
|
|
be used to build complex search terms, even though
|
2013-04-18 01:11:44 +00:00
|
|
|
|
full logical expressions are not available. Note that
|
|
|
|
|
<function>sd_journal_add_conjunction()</function>
|
|
|
|
|
operates one level 'higher' than
|
|
|
|
|
<function>sd_journal_add_disjunction()</function>. It
|
|
|
|
|
is hence possible to build an expression of AND terms,
|
|
|
|
|
consisting of OR terms, consisting of AND terms,
|
|
|
|
|
consisting of OR terms of matches (the latter OR
|
|
|
|
|
expression is implicitly created for matches with the
|
|
|
|
|
same field name, see above).</para>

<para><function>sd_journal_flush_matches()</function>

may be used to flush all matches, disjunction and
|
|
|
|
|
conjunction terms again. After this call all filtering
|
|
|
|
|
is removed and all entries in the journal will be
|
|
|
|
|
iterated again.</para>
