class MCollective::RPC::Audit

Auditing of requests is done only for SimpleRPC requests, you provide a plugin in the MCollective::Audit::* namespace which the SimpleRPC framework calls for each message

We provide a simple one that logs to a logfile in the class MCollective::Audit::Logfile you can create your own:

Create a class in plugins/mcollective/audit/<yourplugin>.rb

You must inherit from MCollective::RPC::Audit which will take care of registering you with the plugin system.

Your plugin must provide audit_request(request, connection) the request parameter will be an instance of MCollective::RPC::Request

To enable auditing you should set:

rpcaudit = 1 rpcauditprovider = Logfile

in the config file this will enable logging using the MCollective::Audit::Logile class

The Audit class acts as a base for audit plugins and takes care of registering them with the plugin manager
