Systemd-cat - Capture System Output | Online Free DevTools by Hexmos

Capture system output with systemd-cat to the systemd journal. Log program output and pipeline streams efficiently for centralized logging. Free online tool, no registration required.

systemd-cat

Connect a pipeline or program’s output streams with the systemd journal. More information: https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-cat.html.

  • Write the output of the specified command to the journal (both output streams are captured):

systemd-cat {{command}}

  • Write the output of a pipeline to the journal (stderr stays connected to the terminal):

{{command}} | systemd-cat

  • Use the specified identifier (default: cat when reading from a pipeline, executable name otherwise):

{{command}} | systemd-cat {{[-t|--identifier]}} {{id}}

  • Use the specified default priority level for all logged messages:

systemd-cat {{[-p|--priority]}} {{emerg|alert|crit|err|warning|notice|info|debug}} {{command}}

  • Use the specified default priority level for the logged messages from the command’s stderr:

systemd-cat --stderr-priority {{emerg|alert|crit|err|warning|notice|info|debug}} {{command}}
