+class DebugDemoPlugin(sudo.Plugin):
+ """
+ An example sudo plugin demonstrating the debugging capabilities.
+
+ You can install it as an extra IO plugin for example by adding the
+ following line to sudo.conf:
+ Plugin python_io python_plugin.so \
+ ModulePath=<path>/example_debugging.py \
+ ClassName=DebugDemoPlugin
+
+ To see the plugin's debug output, use the following line in sudo.conf:
+ Debug python_plugin.so \
+ /var/log/sudo_python_debug plugin@trace,c_calls@trace
+ ^ ^-- the options for the logging
+ ^----- the output will be placed here
+
+ The options for the logging is in format of multiple "subsystem@level"
+ separated by commas (",").
+ The most interesting subsystems are:
+ plugin Shows each call of sudo.debug API in the log
+ - py_calls Logs whenever a C function calls into the python module.
+ (For example calling this __init__ function.)
+ c_calls Logs whenever python calls into a C sudo API function
+
+ You can also specify "all" as subsystem name to get the debug messages of
+ all subsystems.
+
+ Other subsystems available:
+ internal logs internal functions of the python language wrapper
+ sudo_cb logs when sudo calls into its plugin API
+ load logs python plugin loading / unloading
+
+ Log levels
+ crit sudo.DEBUG.CRIT --> only critical messages
+ err sudo.DEBUG.ERROR
+ warn sudo.DEBUG.WARN
+ notice sudo.DEBUG.NOTICE
+ diag sudo.DEBUG.DIAG
+ info sudo.DEBUG.INFO
+ trace sudo.DEBUG.TRACE
+ debug sudo.DEBUG.DEBUG --> very extreme verbose debugging
+
+ See the sudo.conf manual for more details ("man sudo.conf").
+

+ # Specifying "plugin@info" debug option will show this message
+ # (or any more verbose level)

+ "this INFO level debug message")
+
+ # You can also use python log system, because sudo sets its log handler
+ # on the root logger.
+ # Note that the level of python logging is separate than the one set in
+ # sudo.conf. If using the python logger, each will have effect.

+ # Dec 5 15:19:19 sudo[123040] My demo purpose plugin shows this ERROR level debug message
+
+ # Specify: "c_calls@diag" debug option to show this call and its
+ # arguments. If you specify info debug level instead ("c_calls@info"),
+ # you will also see the python function and line from which you called
+ # the 'options_as_dict' function.
