This gem implements the syslog protocol in pure ruby. The Syslog module that uses the openlog(3) syscall can only have a single facility open. SyslogRuby allows you to have as many loggers as you want.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'syslog_ruby'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install syslog_ruby
The syslog_ruby gem also implements a pure ruby version of the Syslog module:
require 'syslog_compat'
To use the pure ruby version
tcp = SyslogRuby::Logger.new('ruby', :LOCAL3, uri: 'tcp://127.0.0.1:514')
udp = SyslogRuby::Logger.new('ruby', :LOCAL4, uri: 'udp://127.0.0.1:514')
local = SyslogRuby::Logger.new('ruby', :LOCAL5, uri: '/dev/log')
local.info "a message"
