<title>Description</title>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_journal_add_match()</function> adds
|
||
a match by which to filter the entries of the journal
|
||
file. Matches applied with this call will filter what
|
||
can be iterated through and read from the journal file
|
||
via calls like
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_next</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
and
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_get_data</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. Matches
|
||
are of the form <literal>FIELD=value</literal>, where
|
||
the field part is a short uppercase string consisting
|
||
only of 0-9, A-Z and the underscore. It may not begin
|
||
with two underscores or be the empty string. The value
|
||
part may be any value, including binary. If a match is
|
||
applied, only entries with this field set will be
|
||
iterated. Multiple matches may be active at the same
|
||
time: If they apply to different fields, only entries
|
||
with both fields set like this will be iterated. If
|
||
they apply to the same fields, only entries where the
|
||
field takes one of the specified values will be
|
||
iterated. Well known fields are documented in
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.journal-fields</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>. Whenever
|
||
a new match is added the current entry position is
|
||
reset, and
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_next</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> (or a similar call)
|
||
needs to be called before entries can be read
|
||
again.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_journal_add_disjunction()</function>
|
||
may be used to insert a disjunction (i.e. logical OR)
|
||
in the match list. If this call is invoked, all
|
||
previously added matches since the last invocation of
|
||
<function>sd_journal_add_disjunction()</function> or
|
||
<function>sd_journal_add_conjunction()</function> are
|
||
combined in an OR with all matches added afterwards,
|
||
until
|
||
<function>sd_journal_add_disjunction()</function> or
|
||
<function>sd_journal_add_conjunction()</function> is
|
||
invoked again to begin the next OR or AND
|
||
term. </para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_journal_add_conjunction()</function>
|
||
may be used to insert a conjunction (i.e. logical AND)
|
||
in the match list. If this call is invoked, all
|
||
previously added matches since the last invocation of
|
||
<function>sd_journal_add_conjunction()</function> are
|
||
combined in an AND with all matches added afterwards,
|
||
until
|
||
<function>sd_journal_add_conjunction()</function> is
|
||
invoked again to begin the next AND term. The
|
||
combination of
|
||
<function>sd_journal_add_match()</function>,
|
||
<function>sd_journal_add_disjunction()</function> and
|
||
<function>sd_journal_add_conjunction()</function> may
|
||
be used to build complex search terms, even though
|
||
full logical expressions are not available. Note that
|
||
<function>sd_journal_add_conjunction()</function>
|
||
operates one level 'higher' than
|
||
<function>sd_journal_add_disjunction()</function>. It
|
||
is hence possible to build an expression of AND terms,
|
||
consisting of OR terms, consisting of AND terms,
|
||
consisting of OR terms of matches (the latter OR
|
||
expression is implicitly created for matches with the
|
||
same field name, see above).</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_journal_flush_matches()</function>
|
||
may be used to flush all matches, disjunction and
|
||
conjunction terms again. After this call all filtering
|
||
is removed and all entries in the journal will be
|
||
iterated again.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>Note that filtering via matches only applies to
|
||
the way the journal is read, it has no effect on storage
|
||
on disk.</para>
