Who knows a simple syslog?

Question

linux

Once upon a time, I set up syslog storage in mysql and wrote a primitive client for viewing in C#. Just view the database and filters on all fields. It was very convenient.
Now I work on a linux machine and the old client does not work here, and there is no time to write a new one. Before I start reinventing the wheel - tell me, maybe there is something ready and simple (ELK or graylog in my case is overkill). Ideally, this is a docker container that can be deployed and it will immediately listen to standard syslog messages and show them in some web interface with the ability to filter.

Answer 1

The most primitive syslog is netcat, which runs on a specific port and writes all output to a file. And viewing - there are a lot of tools for this in the console. And you are dockers, separate software ...

Answer 3

I love syslog-ng, but just rsyslog is also good for your purposes.
I filter messages using grep, I didn’t have to add anything.
The terminal graphics are enough for me to see the text.

That's about what I wanted:
1. Server

2. Client
