grok

A simple library to parse grok patterns with Go.

Installation

Make sure you have a working Go environment.

go get github.com/vjeantet/grok

Use in your project

import "github.com/vjeantet/grok"

Usage

Available patterns and custom ones

By default this grok package contains only patterns you can see in patterns/grok-patterns file.

When you want to add a custom pattern, use the grok.AddPattern(nameOfPattern, pattern), see the example folder for an example of usage. You also can load your custom patterns from a file (or folder) using grok.AddPatternsFromPath(path), or PatterndDir configuration.

Parse all or only named captures

g, _ := grok.New()
values, _  := g.Parse("%{COMMONAPACHELOG}", `127.0.0.1 - - [23/Apr/2014:22:58:32 +0200] "GET /index.php HTTP/1.1" 404 207`)

g, _ = grok.NewWithConfig(&grok.Config{NamedCapturesOnly: true})
values2, _ := g.Parse("%{COMMONAPACHELOG}", `127.0.0.1 - - [23/Apr/2014:22:58:32 +0200] "GET /index.php HTTP/1.1" 404 207`)

values is a map with all captured groups values2 contains only named captures

Examples

package main

import (
	"fmt"

	"github.com/vjeantet/grok"
)

func main() {
	g, _ := grok.New()
	values, _ := g.Parse("%{COMMONAPACHELOG}", `127.0.0.1 - - [23/Apr/2014:22:58:32 +0200] "GET /index.php HTTP/1.1" 404 207`)

	for k, v := range values {
		fmt.Printf("%+15s: %s\n", k, v)
	}
}

output:
