logger:tldr:47ffc
This command is a bash command that involves two commands piped together.
-
echo ${log_entry}
: This part echoes (prints) the value of the${log_entry}
variable. The${log_entry}
is a variable placeholder that should be substituted with an actual value. It could be a string or any other data type. -
|
: This is a pipe operator in bash that redirects the output of the preceding command to the input of the following command. -
logger --tag ${tag}
: This part uses thelogger
command to send logs to the system log. The--tag
flag specifies a tag that identifies the log entry. The${tag}
is a variable placeholder that should be replaced with an actual value.
In summary, the command takes the value stored in the ${log_entry}
variable and passes it as input to the logger
command. The log entry is then logged with the specified tag ${tag}
.
