stream 登录 udp

Question

I have problem sending loggging stream over udp to targeted third part machine that collects log streams.

I've got just couple of lines of init to appear on remote console. The encoding over the udp should be UTF-8, too.

## setup_loggin function body
handler=logging.StreamHandler()
handler.setFormatter(formatter)
socketHandler=logging.handlers.SysLogHandler(address(SYSLOG_IP, 514))
socketHandler.setFormatter(formatter)
logger = logging.getLogger(name)
if not logger.handlers:
    logger.setLevel(log_level)
    logger.addHandler(handler)
    logger.addHandler(socketHandler)
return logger

The remote server gets just begining of the logging at end results. Probably because it expects UDP to receive "UTF-8", and than parses it through.

Is there a way to change logging encoding to "UTF-8" using SysLogHandler or any other loggin handler.?

Problem solved. Third party syslog was parsing based on RFC3164

The MSG part has two fields known as the TAG field and the CONTENT field. So, formatter would be something like

formatter_syslog = logging.Formatter(fmt='foo: %(levelname)s - %(module)s.%(funcName)s - %(message)s')
