Hi, I'm new to Symfony2 and the Dependency Injection Container system and I'm looking for a way to replace the file based logging by a syslog based logging. I'm not sure how to do this "the right way" in Symfony2.
This was quite simple in symfony 1.x: Write a small class that extends sfLogger and implements all necessary steps to syslog the log messages. This class could be added to the application's factories.yml (including all parameters required) and everything was fine. To achieve the same in Symfony2 I'd have to instruct ZendBundle to use Zend\Log\Writer\Syslog instead of Zend\Log\Writer\Stream. Since the configuration parameters of these two classes are incompatible to each other just overwriting the "zend.logger.writer.filesystem" parameter of ZendBundle's logger.xml with "Zend\Log\Writer\Stream" is not sufficient. The logger.xml is only loaded from the fixed ZendBundle/Resources location, so it is not possible to use an application specific logger.xml configuration which adds a new "addWriter" line for syslog based logging to the "zend.logger" service definition. What is the right Symfony2 way to extend the ZendBundle other than patching the bundle itself? Creating a new new bundle "MyZendExtension", inherit from the ZendExtension.php class and extend the MyZendExtension.php class with the additional parameter handling needed for syslogging? But how can I make the "addWriter" lines of the "zend.logger" service configurable in the application so that I can switch between file based and syslog based logging without changing the code? For the moment the old-fashioned symfony 1.x way seems to be more flexible and easier to implement, but surely I'm missing something - I'd be happy about a hint how to approach this :-) Regards, Sven -- If you want to report a vulnerability issue on symfony, please send it to security at symfony-project.com You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "symfony developers" group.
