Improve module documentation and doc cleanup.
This adds lots of config module documentation in a standard format.
It will greatly improve the content at readthedocs.
Additionally:
* Add a 'doc' env to tox.ini
* Changed default highlight language for sphinx conf from python to yaml
most examples in documentation are yaml configs
* Updated datasource examples to highlight sh code properly

The rsyslog config directory to +write config files to may be specified in ``config_dir``, which defaults to +``/etc/rsyslog.d``. + +A list of configurations for for rsyslog can be specified under the ``configs`` +key in the ``rsyslog`` config. Each entry in ``configs`` is either a string or +a dictionary. Each config entry contains a configuration string and a file to +write it to. For config entries that are a dictionary, ``filename`` sets the +target filename and ``content`` specifies the config string to write. For +config entries that are only a string, the string is used as the config string +to write. If the filename to write the config to is not specified, the value of +the ``config_filename`` key is used. A file with the selected filename will +be written inside the directory specified by ``config_dir``. + +The command to use to reload the rsyslog service after the config has been +updated can be specified in ``service_reload_command``. If this is set to +``auto``, then an appropriate command for the distro will be used. This is the +default behavior. To manually set the command, use a list of command args (e.g. +``[systemctl, restart, rsyslog]``). + +Configuration for remote servers can be specified in ``configs``, but for +convenience it can be specified as key value pairs in ``remotes``. Each key +is the name for an rsyslog remote entry. Each value holds the contents of the +remote config for rsyslog. The config consists of the following parts: + + - filter for log messages (defaults to ``*.*``) + - optional leading ``@`` or ``@@``, indicating udp and tcp respectively + (defaults to ``@``, for udp) + - ipv4 or ipv6 hostname or address. ipv6 addresses must be in ``[::1]`` + format, (e.g. ``@[fd00::1]:514``) + - optional port number (defaults to ``514``) + +This module will provide sane defaults for any part of the remote entry that is +not specified, so in most cases remote hosts can be specified just using +``<name>: <address>``. + +For backwards compatibility, this module still supports legacy names for the +config entries. Legacy to new mappings are as follows: + + - ``rsyslog`` -> ``rsyslog/configs`` + - ``rsyslog_filename`` -> ``rsyslog/config_filename`` + - ``rsyslog_dir`` -> ``rsyslog/config_dir`` + +.. note:: + The legacy config format does not support specifying + ``service_reload_command``. + +**Internal name:** ``cc_rsyslog`` + +**Module frequency:** per instance + +**Supported distros:** all + +**Config keys**:: + + rsyslog: + config_dir: config_dir + config_filename: config_filename + configs: + - "*.* @@192.158.1.1" + - content: "*.* @@192.0.2.1:10514" + filename: 01-example.conf + - content: | + *.* @@syslogd.example.com + remotes: + maas: "192.168.1.1" + juju: "10.0.4.1" + service_reload_command: [your, syslog, restart, command] + +**Legacy config keys**:: + + rsyslog: + - "*.* @@192.158.1.1" + rsyslog_dir: /etc/rsyslog-config.d/ + rsyslog_filename: 99-local.conf """ +# Old rsyslog documentation, kept for reference: +# +# rsyslog module allows configuration of syslog logging via rsyslog +# Configuration is done under the cloud-config top level 'rsyslog'. +# +# Under 'rsyslog' you can define: +# - configs: [default=[]] +# this is a list. entries in it are a string or a dictionary. +# each entry has 2 parts: +# * content +# * filename +# if the entry is a string, then it is assigned to 'content'. +# for each entry, content is written to the provided filename. +# if filename is not provided, its default is read from 'config_filename' +# +# Content here can be any valid rsyslog configuration.
