Hi guys,
I was trying to get my head around on how to provide multiple s6-log ‘watches’ for a single supervised process. Imagine I have a single process which generates multiple kind of logs, for example, nginx, or even better mysql, which could generate three types of logs: general, error and slow-query. Piping all of them to the same destination in order to be eatable by s6-log, will converge typologies into one log processing chain. Is it possible, somehow, create a multiplexer in order to know the source and then redirect to whatever destination I consider suitable? I came across with a solution: general -> /dev/mypipe1 (prepend “g:”) --\ /-- if g s6-log /generalpath error -> /dev/mypipe2 (prepend “e:”) ---|— /dev/stdout -|--- if e s6-log /errorpath slow-quey -> /dev/mypipe3 (prepend “sq:”) --/ \-- if sq s6-log /slow-query But probably a better solution could be achieved and you already know how to solve this kind of problems. Is there any “best pattern” for this? Thanks in advance,
