<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
|
||||
previously added matches are combined in an OR with
|
||||
all matches added afterwards, until
|
||||
<function>sd_journal_add_disjunction()</function> is
|
||||
invoked again to begin the next OR term. The
|
||||
combination of
|
||||
<function>sd_journal_add_match()</function> and
|
||||
<function>sd_journal_add_disjunction()</function> may
|
||||
be used to build complex search terms, even though
|
||||
full logical expressions are not available.</para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para><function>sd_journal_flush_matches()</function>
|
||||
may be used to flush all matches and disjunction terms
|
||||
again. After this call all filtering is removed and
|
||||
all entries in the journal will be iterated
|
||||
again.</para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>Note that filtering via matches only applies to
|
||||
way the journal is read, it has no effect on storage
|
||||
on disk.</para>
