SD_JOURNAL_STREAM_FD(3)      sd_journal_stream_fd      SD_JOURNAL_STREAM_FD(3)

NAME
       sd_journal_stream_fd - Create log stream file descriptor to the journal

SYNOPSIS
       #include <systemd/sd-journal.h>

       int sd_journal_stream_fd(const char* identifier, int priority,
                                int level_prefix);

DESCRIPTION
       sd_journal_stream_fd() may be used to create a log stream file
       descriptor. Log messages written to this file descriptor as simple
       newline-separated text strings are written to the journal. This file
       descriptor can be used internally by applications or be made standard
       output or standard error of other processes executed.

       sd_journal_stream_fd() takes a short program identifier string as first
       argument, which will be written to the journal as _SYSLOG_IDENTIFIER=
       field for each log entry (see systemd.journal-fields(7) for more
       information). The second argument shall be the default priority level
       for all messages. The priority level is one of LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT,
       LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR, LOG_WARNING, LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG, as
       defined in syslog.h, see syslog(3) for details. The third argument is a
       boolean: if true kernel-style log priority level prefixes (such as
       SD_WARNING) are interpreted, see sd-daemon(3) for more information.

       It is recommended that applications log UTF-8 messages only with this
       API, but this is not enforced.

RETURN VALUE
       The call returns a valid write-only file descriptor on success or a
       negative errno-style error code.

NOTES
       The sd_journal_stream_fd() interface is available as a shared library,
       which can be compiled and linked to with the libsystemd pkg-config(1)
       file.

EXAMPLES
       Creating a log stream suitable for fprintf(3):

           #include <syslog.h>
           #include <stdio.h>
           #include <string.h>
           #include <unistd.h>
           #include <systemd/sd-journal.h>
           #include <systemd/sd-daemon.h>

           int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
                   int fd;
                   FILE *log;
                   fd = sd_journal_stream_fd("test", LOG_INFO, 1);
                   if (fd < 0) {
                           fprintf(stderr, "Failed to create stream fd: %s\n", strerror(-fd));
                           return 1;
                   }
                   log = fdopen(fd, "w");
                   if (!log) {
                           fprintf(stderr, "Failed to create file object: %m\n");
                           close(fd);
                           return 1;
                   }
                   fprintf(log, "Hello World!\n");
                   fprintf(log, SD_WARNING "This is a warning!\n");
                   fclose(log);
                   return 0;
           }
