Ask HN: What is a simple tool for parsing and analyzing log files?
4 by thojest | 2 comments on Hacker News.
Hi there, I have a small app (frontend, backend, database) with <100 users. I would like to use my log files to analyze basic metrics, like for example - number of requests - number of comments created - number of shared links per unit of time. All of this runs on one single server, no big infrastructure, no big data. I am unable to find a SIMPLE tool to collect my logs in some way, parse them, and visualize them in histograms for example. I know there exist ELK stack, Splunk, Graylog and many others, but all these solutions are much too complex. Especially I do not want to spend weeks setting this up correctly. Further more, most of these solutions need an extra server for aggregating the logdata in some timeseries db. I would be very happy if you know about any opensource tool which can do this job.
