For programmers to need to analyze syslog of RFC3164 or RFC5424 by python,this tested source code is useful.
Output is python dictionary format as followings:
- RFC3164
[{‘datetime’: ‘Oct 28 11:46:20’}, {‘hostname’: ‘swata-VF-AD4S’}, {‘message’: ‘systemd[1]: NetworkManager-dispatcher.service: Succeeded.’}], [{‘datetime’: ‘Oct 28 11:47:35’}, {‘hostname’: ‘swata-VF-AD4S’}, {‘message’: ‘kernel: [ 2565.200606] perf: interrupt took too long (4946 > 4943), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 40250’}]
- RFC5424
[{‘priority’: ’34’}, {‘version’: ‘1’}, {‘datetime’: ‘2021-08-16T22:10:01.000Z’}, {‘hostname’: ‘mymachine’}, {‘message’: ‘myapplication 2017 ID11 BOMmyapplication has started’}]
