Hi folks, I managed to get liblognorm v2, initial version, almost ready before I depart. There are still some rough edges, but if someone is adventurous enough, I think it is safe to try it out. You need to build both liblognorm and rsyslog from source to use it.
I have pushed my personal liblognorm repo today to the official repo. It currently resides in the "v2-experimental" branch. I also managed to write some (hopefully pretty decent...) doc on the new system. The generated form is not yet online, but you can find it here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rsyslog/liblognorm/v2-experimental/doc/configuration.rst You can generate if from the source easily if you do ./configure --enable-docs you need to have sphinx (e.g. phython-sphinx package on many distros) installed to do so. There is some limited v2 compatiblity doc here that didn't yet make it into the doc set: https://github.com/rsyslog/liblognorm/blob/v2-experimental/compatibility-v2 If you have time and interest, please feel free to try out the new version. It will probably go into September's rsyslog release. The current version has the new core engine. In September, I'll add more generic parsers and possibly a set of canned user-defined cases for common types (this is now much easier, I guess even easier than with grok, but at least as easy ;)). Nevertheless, the new engine is already much more capable than the old one is. Take a look at the testbench tests, for example this one: https://github.com/rsyslog/liblognorm/blob/v2-experimental/tests/repeat_alternative_nested.sh Note that I will be out of office from tomorrow on until mid august. During some time of that period I will be in very rural areas without any connectivity at all. So don't expect me to respond before mid august. Nevertheless, I'll reply to any bug and other reports as soon as I can, probably end of August, and it would be great to have some feedback. I'll try to finish the dot graph generator interface tomorrow, as this is nice when testing. Not sure if I manage that, though. Thanks for your continued support!
