Introduction to Linux Info Logger

Linux Info Logger is a powerful tool designed to help system administrators and developers efficiently monitor and log various pieces of information about their Linux systems. With dozens of useful APIs, Linux Info Logger provides an extensive suite of functionalities that can be easily integrated into your applications.

API Examples

1. System Uptime

This API retrieves the system’s uptime information.

  
    #!/bin/bash
    uptime_info=$(linux-info-logger --uptime)
    echo "System Uptime: $uptime_info"
  

2. CPU Usage

This API provides the current CPU usage of the system.

  
    #!/bin/bash
    cpu_usage=$(linux-info-logger --cpu-usage)
    echo "CPU Usage: $cpu_usage"
  

3. Memory Usage

This API returns the current memory usage statistics.

  
    #!/bin/bash
    memory_usage=$(linux-info-logger --memory-usage)
    echo "Memory Usage: $memory_usage"
  

4. Disk Space

Retrieve information on disk space usage for your system.

  
    #!/bin/bash
    disk_space=$(linux-info-logger --disk-space)
    echo "Disk Space: $disk_space"
  

5. Network Statistics

This API provides detailed network statistics.

  
    #!/bin/bash
    network_stats=$(linux-info-logger --network-stats)
    echo "Network Statistics: $network_stats"
  

6. Log System Events

Log important system events with this API.

  
    #!/bin/bash
    event_message="User login detected"
    linux-info-logger --log-event="$event_message"
    echo "Event Logged: $event_message"
  

Example Application Using Linux Info Logger APIs

Below is an example application that uses the Linux Info Logger APIs to monitor system status and log important events.

  
    #!/bin/bash
    echo "Starting System Monitoring..."

    # Log system startup
    linux-info-logger --log-event="System monitoring started"

    # Get and log system uptime
    uptime_info=$(linux-info-logger --uptime)
    linux-info-logger --log-event="System Uptime: $uptime_info"

    # Get and log CPU usage
    cpu_usage=$(linux-info-logger --cpu-usage)
    linux-info-logger --log-event="CPU Usage: $cpu_usage"

    # Get and log memory usage
    memory_usage=$(linux-info-logger --memory-usage)
    linux-info-logger --log-event="Memory Usage: $memory_usage"

    # Get and log disk space usage
    disk_space=$(linux-info-logger --disk-space)
    linux-info-logger --log-event="Disk Space: $disk_space"

    # Get and log network statistics
    network_stats=$(linux-info-logger --network-stats)
    linux-info-logger --log-event="Network Statistics: $network_stats"

    echo "System Monitoring Completed."
  

Integrating Linux Info Logger into your systems can improve your ability to diagnose issues, monitor performance, and ensure system reliability.
