fifo-cronolog ------------- This is a little tool that connects a named pipe/FIFO into the stdin of `cronolog`. This is useful for cases where the logging destination cannot be specified as a program. It was originally written to do logging from Squid, but later re-used for Nginx & other tools. Cronolog's canonical example, in an Apache configuration ``` TransferLog "|/www/sbin/cronolog /www/logs/%Y/%m/%d/access.log" ``` Is converted into: 1. Fifo-cronolog as (via your init system, so it gets restarted): ``` fifo-cronolog /run/apache-access.pid /run/apache-access.fifo /www/logs/%Y/%m/%d/access.log ``` 2. Apache configuration: ``` TransferLog "/run/apache-access.fifo" ```
