linux tail动态关注error,Linux之tail命令实时收集[纠正误解]

tail [OPTION]... [FILE]...

-c, --bytes=K            output the last K bytes; alternatively, use -c +K

to output bytes starting with the Kth of each file

-f, --follow[={name|descriptor}]

output appended data as the file grows;

-f, --follow, and --follow=descriptor are

equivalent

-F                       same as --follow=name --retry

-n, --lines=K            output the last K lines, instead of the last 10;

or use -n +K to output lines starting with the Kth

--max-unchanged-stats=N

with --follow=name, reopen a FILE which has not

changed size after N (default 5) iterations

to see if it has been unlinked or renamed

(this is the usual case of rotated log files).

With inotify, this option is rarely useful.

--pid=PID            with -f, terminate after process ID, PID dies

-q, --quiet, --silent    never output headers giving file names

--retry              keep trying to open a file even when it is or

becomes inaccessible; useful when following by

name, i.e., with --follow=name

-s, --sleep-interval=N   with -f, sleep for approximately N seconds

(default 1.0) between iterations.

With inotify and --pid=P, check process P at

least once every N seconds.

-v, --verbose            always output headers giving file names

--help     display this help and exit

--version  output version information and exit

其中, 使用tail -F -n +K logfile, 可以很好地收集日志数据. 是以前理解错误! 纠正, 纠正!

在日志切换时会打印错误信息:

im e

tail: `/home/hadoop/test.log' has become inaccessible: No such file or directory

tail: `/home/hadoop/test.log' has appeared;  following end of new file

this is a new file

其中第1句可以使用--retry去掉, 第2句则暂不确定.最好就是阅读非"tail:"打头的行才记入日志.

测试代码:

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException, InterruptedException {

ProcessBuilder pb = new ProcessBuilder("bash");

pb.redirectErrorStream(true);

final Process p = pb.start();

PrintStream stdin = new PrintStream(p.getOutputStream());

// stdin.println("source /etc/profile");

stdin.println("tail -F -q --retry  ~/test.log");

stdin.close();

Thread t = new Thread(new Runnable() {

public void run() {

StringWriter buf = new StringWriter();

PrintWriter pbuf = new PrintWriter(buf);

// Scanner stdout = new Scanner(p.getInputStream());

BufferedReader stdout = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));

String line = null;

while (true) {

try {

line = stdout.readLine();

if (line == null) {

return;

}

System.out.println(line);

} catch (IOException e) {

// TODO Auto-generated catch block

e.printStackTrace();

}

}

}

});

t.setDaemon(true);

t.start();

p.waitFor();

System.out.println(p.exitValue());

System.out.println("done...");

}
