# Logsend

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/ezotrank/logsend.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/ezotrank/logsend)

---
Logsend is high-performance tool for processing logs.

## What is it

This like [Logstash](http://logstash.net) but tiny and written by [Golang](http://golang.org).
Supported outputs:

* [Influxdb](#influxdb)
* [NewRelic](#newrelic)
* [Statsd](#statsd)
* [MySQL](#mysql)

##Instalation

Just download binary by your platform from [GitHub Latest Releases](https://github.com/ezotrank/logsend/releases/latest) and unzip, or use this installer

Install logsend to `/usr/local/bin`

```
curl -L http://logsend.io/get|sudo bash
```
OR to your own directory

```
curl -L http://logsend.io/get|bash -s /tmp
```

##How it can be used

As daemon, watching file in directory:

```
logsend -config=config.json /logs
```

Using PIPE:

```
tail -F /logs/*.log |logsend -config=config.json
```

```
cat /logs/*.log |logsend -config=config.json
```

```
ssh user@host "tail -F /logs/*.log"|logsend -config=config.json
```

Or using PIPE without config.json:

```
tail -F /logs/*.log |logsend -influx-dbname test -influx-host 'hosta:4444' -regex='\d+'
```

Daemonize:

```
logsend -config=config.json /logs 2> error.log &
```

## Configuration

* [Influxdb config.json](#influxdb_config)
* [Influxdb advanced config.json](#influxdb_advanced_config)
* [Statsd config.json](#statsd_config)
* [Full config.json](#full_config)

**Influxdb configuration**

Description:

`"mask": "search.log$"` - match logs in watch-dir directory
`"regexp": "metric dbcount (?P[0-9]+)$",` - regexp for matching line. But we want to store some values from this line and we should use named group with type association, in this case `count_INT` will be perform to field `count` with type `int`. Also supported notation `FLOAT`, `STRING`.
`"name": "keys_count"` - database name in Influxdb

***config.json:***

```
{
"influxdb": {
"host": "host:4444",
"user": "root",
"password": "root",
"database": "logers"
},
"groups": [
{
"mask": "search.log$",
"rules": [
{
"regexp": "metric dbcount (?P[0-9]+)$",
"influxdb": {
"name": "keys_count"
}
}
]
}
]
}
```

**Advanced Influxdb configuration**

Description:

`"udp": true,` - sending packets thought UDP(require that Influxdb supported this option)

`"send_buffer": 8` - messages per one packet. But don't forget, max size of packet should be no more then 1500 Byte

Some times we need added not captured params, and for this purpose we used `extra_fields` key.

```
"extra_fields": [
["service", "search"],
["host", "HOST"]
]
```

`["service", "search"],` - First is column name, second it's value.

`["host", "HOST"]` - HOST it's a special keyword who's returned hostname of machine.

***config.json***

```
{
"influxdb": {
"host": "host:4444",
"user": "root",
"password": "root",
"database": "logers",
"udp": true,
"send_buffer": 8
},
"groups": [
{
"mask": "search.log$",
"rules": [
{
"regexp": "metric dbcount (?P[0-9]+)$",
"influxdb": {
"name": "keys_count",
"extra_fields": [
["service", "search"],
["host", "HOST"]
]
}
}
]
}
]
}
```

**NewRelic configuration**

Description:

- `"host"` - hostname when started logsend
- `"name"` - application name
- `"key"` - api key for NewRelic
- `"duration"` - seconds, how often send report to New Relic
- `"tmpl"` - metric name

}
]
}
]
}

```

**Statsd configuration**

Description:

`["search.prepare_proposal_time", "prepare_proposals"]` - set `prepare_proposals` to `search.prepare_proposal_time` as timing
`"search.prepare_proposals"` - increment by by this metric
`["search.keys_count", "prepare_proposals"]` - set non integer metrics

***config.json***

```
{
"regexp": "PreapreProposals took (?P.+)$",
"statsd": {
"timing": [
["search.prepare_proposal_time", "prepare_proposals"]
],
"increment": [
"search.prepare_proposals"

## Tips

* use flag `-debug` for more info
* use flag `-dry-run` for processing logs but not send to destination
* use flag `-read-whole-log` for reading whole log file and continue reading
* use flag `-read-once` better for use with -read-whole-log, just read whole log and exit
