logger

Add messages to syslog (/var/log/syslog). More information: https://manned.org/logger.

• Log a message to syslog:
   
  logger {{message}}
   
• Take input from stdin and log to syslog:
   
  echo {{log_entry}} | logger
   
• Send the output to a remote syslog server running at a given port. Default port is 514:
   
  echo {{log_entry}} | logger --server {{hostname}} --port {{port}}
   
• Use a specific tag for every line logged. Default is the name of logged in user:
   
  echo {{log_entry}} | logger --tag {{tag}}
   
• Log messages with a given priority. Default is user.notice. See man logger for all priority options:
   
  echo {{log_entry}} | logger --priority {{user.warning}}
