File Rotate Directory
tgdesrochers
I am attempting to use `xm_ifileop` to rotate some logfiles I am collecting with nxlog. I can see that rotation works as expected if I specify the file path but can I use the same logic to rotate all files in directory.
Example:
`/var/log/osquery/` on linux/mac and `C:\ProgramData\osquery\log` on windows has 3 files in it that start with `osdqueryd.` and I want to watch those and rotate them if they get over 3M. I have tried on windows and Mac to use a `*` in the file path to specify the directory:
`define OSQLOGFILE C:\\ProgramData\\osquery\\log\\osqueryd.\*`
but that doesn't rotate the log. If I specify each file by name then it works as expected but then I need 3 xm_fileop sections.
Is there an easy way to tell nxlog to rotate all files matching a pattern?
Here is my logic so far:
```
Module xm_fileop
# Check the log file size every hour and rotate if larger than 3 MB
Every 1 hour
Exec if (file_exists('%OSQLOGFILE%') and (file_size('%OSQLOGFILE%') >= 1M)) file_cycle('%OSQLOGFILE%', 4);
```
