Lstash is a gem and command line utility to count or grep log messages in a certain time frame from a Logstash Elasticsearch server.
Or install it yourself as:
gem install lstash
$ lstash
Commands:
lstash count QUERY # count number of log messages matching the QUERY
lstash grep QUERY # grep log messages from Logstash
lstash help [COMMAND] # Describe available commands or one specific command
Usage:
lstash count QUERY
Description:
Count log messages matching the QUERY from Logstash and output this count to stdout. QUERY can use Apache Lucene query
parser syntax.
Example to count the number of HAProxy log messages in yesterdays month.
lstash count 'program:haproxy' --from firstday --to today --anchor yesterday
Usage:
lstash grep QUERY
Description:
Grep log messages matching the QUERY from Logstash in ascending timestamp order and output to stdout. QUERY can use Apache Lucene query parser syntax.
Example to grep HAProxy log messages from the beginning of this month upto now
lstash grep 'program:haproxy' --from firstday --to now
Options:
-f, [--from=start of time range] # date/time, 'now', 'today', 'yesterday', or 'firstday'
-t, [--to=end of time range] # date/time, 'now', 'today', 'yesterday', or 'firstday'
-a, [--anchor=anchor date/time] # used as reference date for firstday
-e, [--es-url=Elasticsearch endpoint for Logstash] # or ES_URL environment variable
All times will be relative to the timezone of the machine on which you are running lstash.
By default lstash
will connnect to Elasticsearch on your localhost as https://localhost:9200
. To connect
to a different server you can set the ES_URL
environment variable. URL scheme http
and port 9200
are default
and may be omitted.
Example
export ES_URL=log.mydomain.com
lstash count program:haproxy
Or
lstash count program:haproxy --es-url log.mydomain.com
Count the number of haproxy log messages matching QUERY from Aug 1 at midnight (0:00 am) upto (not including) Aug 2 at midnight (0:00 am).
lstash count program:haproxy --from "Aug 1" --to "Aug 2"
Grep all haproxy log messages using for one day (Aug 24 1 0:00 am upto and including Aug 2 23:59).
lstash grep program:haproxy --from "Aug 1" --to "Aug 2"
Assuming today is Sep 1 2014. Count all haproxy log messages in the previous month.
lstash count program:haproxy --anchor yesterday --from firstday --to today -d
