The tipidee-logaggregate program

tipidee-logaggregate is a very ad-hoc, quick-and-dirty log aggregator for tipidee.

     tipidee-logaggregate [ -4 | -6 ]

• tipidee-logaggregate reads a series of log entries on its stdin.
• It aggregates the logs, and prints what it finds to stdout. For every client IP that hit the server, it prints that IP, followed by all the URLs that the client requested.

tipidee-logaggregate was written for a very specific situation and is only provided as a convenience. No effort has been made to try and make it generic, so it expects a precise log format:

• The log directive in /etc/tipidee.conf must contain at least the following: log start ip request resource
• The log lines must start with a TAI64N label. This is achieved by running s6-log as the logging program with the t directive.

If these conditions are not met, tipidee-logaggregate will not work properly.

cat *.s current | tipidee-logaggregate > result

0

Success.

100

Bad usage.

111

System call failed. This usually signals an issue with the underlying operating system.

-4

Expect IPv4 addresses. Use this option when reading logs from a server listening to an IPv4 address.

-6

Expect IPv6 addresses. Use this option when reading logs from a server listening to an IPv6 address.

• If you feed tipidee-logaggregate logs starting from a random moment in time when tipideed has already been serving, some warnings are normal and expected. They correspond to the already-connected clients that tipidee-logaggregate cannot identify. Unless they repeat for a large number of lines, these warnings are harmless.
