SyslogScan::Usage -- encapsulates the total volumes of mail broadcast, sent, and received through sendmail by a single user or group.
SyslogScan::Volume -- encapsulates a number of messages along with a total number of bytes
# $summary is a SyslogScan::Summary object
use SyslogScan::Usage; my $usage = $$summary{'john_doe@foo.com'}; $usage -> dump();
use SyslogScan::Volume; my $broadcastVolume = $usage -> getBroadcastVolume(); my $sendVolume = $usage -> getSendVolume(); my $receiveVolume = $usage -> getReceiveVolume();
print "John Doe sent $$sendVolume[0] messages with $$sendVolume[1] bytes\n";
Volume of messages received has the obvious meaning. Volume of messages sent and volume of messages broadcast require more explanation.
If I send out a message which has three recipients, then for the purposes of the SyslogScan modules, I am broadcasting the message once, but I am sending it three times.
Creates a new, empty Usage object.
# $usage1 is 4 messages of 100 bytes Received # $usage2 is 1 message of 35 bytes Received my $usageTotal = $usage1 -> deepCopy(); # $usageTotal is 4 messages of 100 bytes Received $usageTotal -> addUsage($usage2); # $usageTotal is 5 messages of 135 bytes Received
Note that because we used deepCopy, $usage1 is still 4 messages of 100 bytes.
my $usage = new SyslogScan::Usage(); $usage -> registerSend(512); $usage -> registerSend(34); $usage -> registerBroadcast(34); # $usage is now 2 messages, 546 bytes Sent, # and 1 message, 34 bytes Broadcast
Returns deep copy of the applicable SyslogScan::Volume objects.
Returns deep copy of the whole SyslogScan::Usage object.
Returns a string containing (Message,Bytes) pairs for Broadcast, Send, and Receive volumes.
Creates a new Volume object of 0 messages, 0 bytes.
Creates a new Volume object with the same number of messages and bytes as the current Volume object.
addVolume() adds the volume of a second Volume object onto the volume of the current Volume object.
addSize() adds on one message of the given size.
use SyslogScan::Volume; my $volume1 = new SyslogScan::Volume(); $volume1 -> addSize(512); my $volume2 = $volume1 -> deepCopy(); # $volume2 is 1 message, 512 bytes $volume2 -> addSize(31); # $volume2 is 2 messages, 543 bytes $volume2 -> addVolume($volume1); # $volume2 is 3 messages, 1055 bytes $volume2 -> addVolume($volume2); # $volume2 is 6 messages, 2110 bytes
Gets the number of messages and the total number of bytes, respectively.
Returns the string "getMessageCount(),getByteCount()"
A Volume is simply a two-element array of ($messages, $bytes).
$$volume[0] is the number of messages $$volume[1] is the number of bytes
