Logging by Agent/'bot

[thedaver]

Is it possible to key on known 'bots, spiders, and IPs to have their web activity logged into file XYZ while "regular" or "unclassified" traffic is routed to file ABC?

I'd rather not post-process my logs to make the separation.

Don't have a problem logging the same content into either log, just want to fork intelligently. Does this require changing the logging agent via a pipe?

Appreciated in advance!

SetEnvIf User-Agent "botname" is-bot
CustomLog bot_access_log common env=is-bot
CustomLog access_log common env=!is-bot

I don't recall the syntax for the botname. Regex is supported, but I don't know if you have to allow for the entire bot name or if you could just put in "Googlebot
