logrotate Cookbook

Build Status

Manages the logrotate package and provides a definition to manage
application specific logrotate configuration.

Requirements

Platforms

Should work on any platform that includes a 'logrotate' package and
writes logrotate configuration to /etc/logrotate.d. Tested on Ubuntu
and Centos.

Chef

  • Chef 12.5+

Cookbooks

  • none

Recipes

global

Generates and controls a global /etc/logrotate.conf file that will
include additional files generated by the logrotate_app definition
(see below). The contents of the configuration file is controlled
through node attributes under node['logrotate']['global']. The
default attributes are based on the configuration from the Ubuntu
logrotate package.

To define a valueless directive (e.g. compress, copy) simply add
an attribute named for the directive with a truthy value:

node['logrotate']['global']['compress'] = 'any value here'

Note that defining a valueless directive with a falsey value will not
make it false, but will remove it:

# Removes a defaulted 'compress' directive; does not add a 'nocompress' directive.
node.override['logrotate']['global']['compress'] = false

To fully override a booleanish directive like compress, you should
probably remove the positive form and add the negative form:

node.override['logrotate']['global']['compress'] = false
node.override['logrotate']['global']['nocompress'] = true

The same is true of frequency directives; to be certain the frequency
directive you want is included in the global configuration, you should
override the ones you don't want as false:

%w[ daily weekly yearly ].each do |freq|
  node.override['logrotate']['global'][freq] = false
end
node.override['logrotate']['global']['monthly'] = true

To define a parameter with a value (e.g. create, mail) add an
attribute with the desired value:

node['logrotate']['global']['create'] = '0644 root adm'

To define a path stanza in the global configuration (generally
unneeded because of the logrotate_app definition) just add an
attribute with the path as the name and a hash containing directives
and parameters as described above:

node['logrotate']['global']['/var/log/wtmp'] = {
  'missingok' => true,
  'monthly'   => true,
  'create'    => '0660 root utmp',
  'rotate'    => 1
}

firstaction, prerotate, postrotate, and lastaction scripts can
be defined either as arrays of the lines to put in the script or
multiline strings:

node['logrotate']['global']['/var/log/foo/*.log'] = {
  'missingok'  => true,
  'monthly'    => true,
  'create'     => '0660 root adm',
  'rotate'     => 1,
  'prerotate'  => ['service foo start_rotate', 'logger started foo service log rotation'],
  'postrotate' => <<-EOF
    service foo end_rotate
    logger completed foo service log rotation
  EOF
}

Resources

logrotate_app

This resource can be used to drop off customized logrotate config
files on a per application basis.

The resource takes the following properties:

  • path: specifies a single path (string) or multiple paths (array)
    that should have logrotation stanzas created in the config file. No
    default, this must be specified.

  • cookbook: The cookbook that continues the template for
    logrotate_app config definitions. By default this is logrotate.
    Users can provide their own template by setting this attribute to
    point at a different cookbook.

  • template_name: sets the template source, default is
    "logrotate.erb".

  • template_mode: the mode to create the logrotate template with
    (default: "0644")

  • template_owner: the owner of the logrotate template (default:
    "root")

  • template_group: the group of the logrotate template (default:
    "root")

  • frequency: sets the frequency for rotation. Default value is
    'weekly'. Valid values are: hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, yearly,
    see the logrotate man page for more information. Note that usually
    logrotate is configured to be run by cron daily. You have to change
    this configuration and run logrotate hourly to be able to really
    rotate logs hourly. Hourly rotation requires logrotate v3.8.5 or
    higher.

  • options: Any logrotate configuration option that doesn't specify a
    value. See the logrotate(8) manual page of v3.9.2 or earlier for
    details.

In addition to these properties, any logrotate option that takes a
parameter can be used as a logrotate_app property. For example, to set
the rotate option you can use a resource declaration such as:

logrotate_app 'tomcat-myapp' do
  path      '/var/log/tomcat/myapp.log'
  frequency 'daily'
  rotate    30
  create    '644 root adm'
end

See the logrotate(8) manual page of v3.9.2 or earlier for the list of
available options.

Usage

The default recipe will ensure logrotate is always up to date.

To create application specific logrotate configs, use the
logrotate_app definition. For example, to rotate logs for a tomcat
application named myapp that writes its log file to
/var/log/tomcat/myapp.log:

logrotate_app 'tomcat-myapp' do
  path      '/var/log/tomcat/myapp.log'
  frequency 'daily'
  rotate    30
  create    '644 root adm'
end

To rotate multiple logfile paths, specify the path as an array:

logrotate_app 'tomcat-myapp' do
  path      ['/var/log/tomcat/myapp.log', '/opt/local/tomcat/catalina.out']
  frequency 'daily'
  create    '644 root adm'
  rotate    7
end

To specify which logrotate options, specify the options as an array:

logrotate_app 'tomcat-myapp' do
  path      '/var/log/tomcat/myapp.log'
  options   ['missingok', 'delaycompress', 'notifempty']
  frequency 'daily'
  rotate    30
  create    '644 root adm'
end
