Monitor date wise log using regular expression

[innovator]

I want to monitor below log file in zabbix

/var/log/syslog-ng/local/2017-07-24/localhost/ALL

In syslog-ng log files will create in every day with date wise folder like below path.

/var/log/syslog-ng/local/2017-07-24/localhost/

I need to know how to specify date wise folder path in zabbix key.

While Zabbix logrt[] item can handle log rotation between file names matching a regexp in a folder, it requires exact path (folder) name.

One workaround - how about creating a symbolic link with a fixed name (for using in log[] or logrt[] item) to the actual folder with today's log files ? And recreating the link at midnight with cron script ?
