The syslog platform allows you to deliver notifications from Home Assistant to the local syslog.
|
|
|
|
To enable syslog notifications in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
notify:
|
|
name: NOTIFIER_NAME
|
|
platform: syslog
|
|
facility: SYSLOG_FACILITY
|
|
option: SYSLOG_LOG_OPTION
|
|
priority: SYSLOG_PRIORITY
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Setting the optional parameter `name` allows multiple notifiers to be created.
|
|
The default value is `notify`. The notifier will bind to the service
|
|
`notify.NOTIFIER_NAME`.
|
|
|
|
The table contains values to use in your `configuration.yaml` file.
