My own log

[Acruax]

Hello, I need to make my own log file:

date - time
commands
date - time
commands

When I start new working session in terminal it must append new 'date - time' line to log file. Each command must be written to log file.

Can you help me with this?

Probably not the best forum for this ;)

Try using "script".


script mylog.log

I guess you could add this to .bashrc to run when opening a shell, and use the -a option to append instead of replacing.

and configure logrotate to rotate/compress the log.

It is a task for Lab at the university. I need to use ~/.bashrc file. I think that I can use this string in the ~/.bashrc to start session in log file: date +%D >> mylog.log

After this I think I need to catch every command and append it to the mylog.log. But how can I catch commands after I type Enter?

I have tried to use "script" but I need to log only commands without output.

write your own shell.
