- <title>Description</title>
-
- <para><function>sd_journal_open()</function> opens
- the log journal for reading. It will find all journal
- files automatically and interleave them automatically
- when reading. As first argument it takes a pointer to
- a <varname>sd_journal</varname> pointer, which on
- success will contain a journal context object. The
- second argument is a flags field, which may consist of
- the following flags ORed together:
- <constant>SD_JOURNAL_LOCAL_ONLY</constant> makes sure
- only journal files generated on the local machine will
- be opened. <constant>SD_JOURNAL_RUNTIME_ONLY</constant>
- makes sure only volatile journal files will be opened,
- excluding those which are stored on persistent
- storage. <constant>SD_JOURNAL_SYSTEM</constant>
- will cause journal files of system services and the
- kernel (in opposition to user session processes) to
- be opened. <constant>SD_JOURNAL_CURRENT_USER</constant>
- will cause journal files of the current user to be
- opened. If neither <constant>SD_JOURNAL_SYSTEM</constant>
- nor <constant>SD_JOURNAL_CURRENT_USER</constant> are
- specified, all journal file types will be opened.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_journal_open_directory()</function>
- is similar to <function>sd_journal_open()</function>
- but takes an absolute directory path as argument. All
- journal files in this directory will be opened and
- interleaved automatically. This call also takes a
- flags argument, but it must be passed as 0 as no flags
- are currently understood for this call.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_journal_open_files()</function>
- is similar to <function>sd_journal_open()</function>
- but takes a <constant>NULL</constant>-terminated list
- of file paths to open. All files will be opened and
- interleaved automatically. This call also takes a
- flags argument, but it must be passed as 0 as no flags
- are currently understood for this call. Please note
- that in the case of a live journal, this function is only
- useful for debugging, because individual journal files
- can be rotated at any moment, and the opening of
- specific files is inherently racy.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_journal_open_container()</function>
- is similar to <function>sd_journal_open()</function>
- but opens the journal files of a running
- OS container. The specified machine name refers to a
- container that is registered with
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-machined</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
-
- <para><varname>sd_journal</varname> objects cannot be
- used in the child after a fork. Functions which take a
- journal object as an argument
- (<function>sd_journal_next()</function> and others)
- will return <constant>-ECHILD</constant> after a fork.
- </para>
-
- <para><function>sd_journal_close()</function> will
- close the journal context allocated with
- <function>sd_journal_open()</function> or
- <function>sd_journal_open_directory()</function> and
- free its resources.</para>
-
- <para>When opening the journal only journal files
- accessible to the calling user will be opened. If
- journal files are not accessible to the caller, this
- will be silently ignored.</para>
-
- <para>See
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_next</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- for an example of how to iterate through the journal
- after opening it with
- <function>sd_journal_open()</function>.</para>
-
- <para>A journal context object returned by
- <function>sd_journal_open()</function> references a
- specific journal entry as <emphasis>current</emphasis> entry,
- similar to a file seek index in a classic file system
- file, but without absolute positions. It may be
- altered with
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_next</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- and
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_seek_head</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- and related calls. The current entry position may be
- exported in <emphasis>cursor</emphasis> strings, as accessible
- via
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_get_cursor</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. Cursor
- strings may be used to globally identify a specific
- journal entry in a stable way and then later to seek
- to it (or if the specific entry is not available
- locally, to its closest entry in time)
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_seek_cursor</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
