README

Parse your Apache/Nginx/Varnish/HAProxy logs into PHP objects to programatically handle the data.

Install

composer require kassner/log-parser:~2.2

Usage

$parser = new \Kassner\LogParser\LogParser();
$lines = file('/var/log/apache2/access.log', FILE_IGNORE_NEW_LINES | FILE_SKIP_EMPTY_LINES);
foreach ($lines as $line) {
    $entry = $parser->parse($line);
}

The $entry object will hold all data parsed. If the line does not match the defined format, a \Kassner\LogParser\FormatException will be thrown.

object(Kassner\LogParser\SimpleLogEntry)#4 (8) {
  ["host"]=>
  string(14) "193.191.216.76"
  ["logname"]=>
  string(1) "-"
  ["user"]=>
  string(8) "www-data"
  ["stamp"]=>
  int(1390794676)
  ["time"]=>
  string(26) "27/Jan/2014:04:51:16 +0100"
  ["request"]=>
  string(53) "GET /wp-content/uploads/2013/11/whatever.jpg HTTP/1.1"
  ["status"]=>
  string(3) "200"
  ["responseBytes"]=>
  string(5) "58678"
}

Customizations

Log format

You may customize the log format (by default it matches the Apache common log format)

# default Nginx format:
$parser->setFormat('%h %l %u %t "%r" %>s %O "%{Referer}i" \"%{User-Agent}i"');

Supported format strings

Here is the full list of log format strings supported by Apache, and whether they are supported by the library :

Beware: You should really read the notes when using a option that is marked with a X on the Supported? column.

Entry object

Before 2.0.0 it was possible to overwrite the entry object returned by overwriting the createEntry method. With strict types, this is no longer possible, so instead you have to use the newly created interfaces.

First, create two new classes, your entry object and a factory that is responsible of creating it:

class MyEntry implements \Kassner\LogParser\LogEntryInterface
{
}

class MyEntryFactory implements \Kassner\LogParser\LogEntryFactoryInterface
{
    public function create(array $data): \Kassner\LogParser\LogEntryInterface
    {
        // @TODO implement your code here to return a instance of MyEntry
    }
}

And then provide the factory as the second argument to the LogParser constructor:

$factory = new MyEntryFactory();
$parser = new \Kassner\LogParser\LogParser(null, $factory);
$entry = $parser->parse('193.191.216.76 - www-data [27/Jan/2014:04:51:16 +0100] "GET /wp-content/uploads/2013/11/whatever.jpg HTTP/1.1" 200 58678');

$entry will be an instance of MyEntry.
