2013-04-17python-systemd: Reader return special fields and _Reader changesSteven Hiscocks
Changes to _Reader make it match closer to C API, by removing `get_next` and `get_previous`. A `get_all` method added, which returns dictionary of fields using C API SD_JOURNAL_FOREACH_DATA macro, which can be used in conjunction with `next`. _Reader `get`, `next`, `get_{realtime,monotonic,cursor}` and new `previous` methods are made private. This is so the traversal and getting of journal fields can be made transparent in the python interface. Reader now solely implements `get_next` and `get_previous`, returning a standard dictionary (future: other mapping types?) with all standard and special fields through the converters. This makes the output the same as journalctl json/export format output. Iterator methods also moved to Reader, as they do not function as intend with changes to _Reader. These changes also mean that more optimised journal interfaces can be made more easily from _Reader, by avoiding getting of unrequired fields by using the `_get` method, and avoiding field conversions.

2013-03-21systemd-python: allow retrieval of single fieldsZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
This can give huge efficiency gains, e.g. if only MESSAGE is required and all other fields can be ignored.
2013-03-21systemd-python: cleanup up usec_t handlingZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
The behaviour wrt. seconds vs. microseconds was inconsistent. Now _Reader always uses native units (us), while Reader always uses seconds and accepts both floats and ints. This way the conversion is always done in the Python layer, and the lower level API allows access to the journal API without the potentially lossy conversion between double and uint64_t.
2013-03-19systemd-python: add journal.get_catalog()Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
This one wraps sd_journal_get_catalog_from_message_id. Thanks to Python namespacing, we can stick to a shorter name.

2013-03-07systemd-python: refuse path and flags together in __init__Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
It's better to explictly check, instead of just documenting it. The return value from init is changed from 1 to -1 on error. Python seems to ignore 1 every second time. Looks like a bug in Python, but the return value doesn't seem to be documented anywhere, and -1 works as expected... so let's just use that.
2013-03-07systemd-python: split .seek() into .seek_head() and .seek_tail()Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
This way python code follows the original interface more closely. Also, .seek(0, journal.SEEK_END) was just to much to type.
2013-03-07systemd-python: catch only ValueErrors in conversion codeZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
First of all, 'try: ... except: ...' (with no exception specified) is always a no-no, since it catches all BaseExceptions, which includes ^C and other stuff which should almost never be caught. Now the conversion is stricter, and only one conversion is attempted, and only a ValueEror is caught. It seems reasonable to catch ValueErrors, since the entries in the journal are not verified, and any erroneous application might log a field which cannot be converted. The consumer of events must only check if a field is an instance of bytes and can otherwise assume that the conversion was performed correctly. Order of arguments in Reader.__init__ has been changed to match order in _Reader.__init__. Conversions have been updated to work under Python 2 and 3.
2013-02-28python-systemd: rename Journal to ReaderZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
It seems inevitable that we'll also grow a writing interface, and then it'll be cumbersome to have a "Journal" for reading, and a "Writer" for writing.
2013-02-28systemd-python: return both parts of sd_journal_get_monotonic_usecZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
In Python 3, a named tuple is used. In Python 2, a simple tuple is used. In either case, the pair is (timestamp, bootid).
2013-02-28python-systemd: check all errors and use automatic cleanupZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
__REALTIME_TIMESTAMP and __MONOTONIC_TIMESTAMP return ints. It doesn't make sense to convert to string, just to convert back to a number later on. Also try to follow systemd rules for indentation.

2012-11-13python: add journal backend for the logging frameworkMarti Raudsepp
Supports Python versions 2.6 through 3.3 (tested on 2.7 and 3.2). See JournalHandler docstring for usage details. [zj: - use send() instead of using sendv() directly - do exception handling like in the logging module - bumped min version to python2.6, since the module does not work with python2.5 anyway ]
