Nginx access.log have to be formatted with this format:
log_format main_ext
'$remote_addr $http_host $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" '
'$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" '
'"$http_user_agent" "$http_x_forwarded_for" '
'rt=$request_time ua="$upstream_addr" '
'us="$upstream_status" ut="$upstream_response_time" '
'ul="$upstream_response_length" '
'cs=$upstream_cache_status';
Install with pip:
pip install nginx2es
- Stable log record ID (hostname + file inode number + timestamp + file
position). It makes possible to import log file more than once (adding some
additional processing to
nginx2es
, or dropping a daily index containing only a half of records, etc) without creating a duplicate records. - Parse query params and split request uri path components to separate fields for complex log filtering / aggregations.
- Optional use of the GeoIP database (requires the
geoip
module and theGeoIPCity.dat
database file) - addscity
andregion_name
fields. - Correctly parse log records containing information about multiple upstream responses.
- The
tail -F
-like mode implemented with inotify.
