Yeah, my idea was to allow the user to build the type of filter they wanted and underneath the hood it would make a SQL query to the DB grabbing that stuff and generating the RSS. I'm not sure how sophisticated my first attempt would be, but I might make a small release and see what people think and if they find it useful, add some of the additional things. The whole reason behind me wanting to do this is I think while a web front end to syslog is great, it still requires someone to look at it. I for one use RSS frequently and always have an aggregator application open on one of my screens so it is easy for me to look over and take notice of things I actually care about, based on the filter/ruleset I defined for my feed.
One could take this concept even further and extend the php-syslog-ng interface to allow users to create rules and event handlers that would be executed by the syslog-ng daemon itself. -----Original Message----- From: Claus Lund [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 07, 2006 10:43 AM To: Freeman, Michael Subject: Re: [Php-syslog-ng-support] Log2rss support? An RSS feed may be useful in some situations ... but I don't know how well it would work/useful it would be in very "chatty environments"? Maybe if you can do some filtering on what you subscribe to then it could be used for alerting on certain situations that you want to make sure you catch. -Claus On 7/6/06, Freeman, Michael <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Is anyone else besides myself interested in getting RSS feeds from > php-syslog-ng?
