Syslog daemon and named pipes

[mblaschke]

Currently i'm writing a go-syslogd to get following features:

• syslog handling of /dev/log
• creation of named pipes to provide applications a possibility to write to a "logfile" which instead writes to a daemon instead into a file (some daemons have splitted master and childrens)

Would be nice to have this solution in a supervisord (like systemd). At the moment we're using the original supervisord.

Are you planing to implement something like that? Would be easy in golang and maybe i can help if you want this feature implemented in your supervisord.

i think such kind of feature will be cool. currently i need to specify something like /proc/1/fd/1 as log file to save logs to supervisord stdout ( because i'm running it in docker ). It will be great to have some kind of "stdout" output stream and add prefix ( for example program name) so i'll be able to know log issuer.
