62 * match_create_callback
65 * Creates a new `cu_match_t' object which will use the regular expression
66 * `regex' to match lines, see the `match_apply' method below. If the line
67 * matches, the callback passed in `callback' will be called along with the
68 * pointer `user_pointer'.
69 * The string that's passed to the callback depends on the regular expression:
70 * If the regular expression includes a sub-match, i. e. something like
71 * "value=([0-9][0-9]*)"
72 * then only the submatch (the part in the parenthesis) will be passed to the
73 * callback. If there is no submatch, then the entire string is passed to the
76 cu_match_t *match_create_callback (const char *regex,
77 int (*callback) (const char *str,
78 char * const *matches, size_t matches_num, void *user_data),
86 * Creates a new `cu_match_t' with a default callback. The user data for that
87 * default callback will be a `cu_match_value_t' structure, with
88 * `ds_type' copied to the structure. The default callback will handle the
89 * string as containing a number (see strtoll(3) and strtod(3)) and store that
90 * number in the `value' member. How that is done depends on `ds_type':
92 * UTILS_MATCH_DS_TYPE_GAUGE
93 * The function will search for a floating point number in the string and
94 * store it in value.gauge.
95 * UTILS_MATCH_DS_TYPE_COUNTER_SET
96 * The function will search for an integer in the string and store it in
98 * UTILS_MATCH_DS_TYPE_COUNTER_ADD
99 * The function will search for an integer in the string and add it to the
100 * value in value.counter.
101 * UTILS_MATCH_DS_TYPE_COUNTER_INC
102 * The function will not search for anything in the string and increase
103 * value.counter by one.
105 cu_match_t *match_create_simple (const char *regex, int ds_type);
112 * Destroys the object and frees all internal resources.
114 void match_destroy (cu_match_t *obj);
121 * Tries to match the string `str' with the regular expression of `obj'. If
122 * the string matches, calls the callback in `obj' with the (sub-)match.
124 * The user_data pointer passed to `match_create_callback' is NOT freed
125 * automatically. The `cu_match_value_t' structure allocated by
126 * `match_create_callback' is freed automatically.
128 int match_apply (cu_match_t *obj, const char *str);
132 * match_get_user_data
135 * Returns the pointer passed to `match_create_callback' or a pointer to the
136 * `cu_match_value_t' structure allocated by `match_create_simple'.
