Request-log-analyzer 1.5 release cycle

Version 1.5.1

• Fixed a crasher bug in the HTML output of traffic reports.

Version 1.5.0

• Added file format autodetection: in most cases, providing the --format parameter is no longer needed to select the correct file format. However, it is still possible to explicitly set the format if autodetection fails.
• Added a MySQL slow query log parser (--format mysql).
  Thanks Bart Zonneveld for contributing this functionality.
• Mail host now configurable. Use --mailhost <server> to specify this
• Added specs to test mailing functionality using a mock SMTP server (mailtrap)

Request-log-analyzer 1.4 release cycle

Version 1.4.2

• Added correct content-type to emails sent via the --mail option.

Version 1.4.1

• Fixed --mail command line option which was broken since version 1.4.0.
• Added Scout & Munin plugin integration tests

Version 1.4.0

• Initial version of request-log-analyzer API.
• Added standard deviation to duration and traffic reports.
• Added --report-amount <n> to define the number of entries in the table in the report. Use all to specify that all entries should be included. The default value is 20
• Added --report-sort <sortings> options to specify how the resulting duration and traffic tables should be sorted. You can specify multiple sort fields using a comma separated list, which results in multiple tables. Supported sortings are sum, mean, stddev and hits. The default value is sum,mean.
• Restructured the Rails request log parser to be more flexible about what lines to parse, using the --rails-format <lines> command line switch.
  • --rails-format minimal will only parse processing and completed lines.
  • --rails-format production will parse exceptions and cache hits besides the minimal lines.
  • --rails-format development will also parse SQL queries and template renderings
  • --rails-format all will parse every known line type.
  • --rails-format minimal,failure will parse the minimal lines and exceptions. Use a comma-separated list like this. to define your own line set.
• Significantly improved the test coverage of the Rails log format.

Request-log-analyzer 1.3 release cycle

Version 1.3.7

• Fixed a crasher bug when parsing compressed files.
• Speed optimizations by enabling teaser checks for lines.

Version 1.3.6

• Speed optimizations to improve parsing performance of frequently called methods, i.e. Tracker#should_update, Request#convert_value, Request#convert_timestamp, Request#convert_traffic and Request#convert_duration.
• Tweaked all file formats for increased performance
• Cleaned up and simplified some old code.

Version 1.3.5

• Added statistics about data traffic for the file formats that contain this information (Apache, Amazon S3, Rack)
• Added support for Rack CommonLogger logs (--format rack).
• Added “agent” and “referer” Apache log format constants.
• Improved request duration parsing (%D directive) from Apache access log files.
• Fixed a bug in the database inserter that caused tables to be created with wrong fields.

Version 1.3.4

Version 1.3.2

• Tweaking to increase performance significantly.

Version 1.3.1

• E-mail option to automatically send you reports: add --mail my@address.com to your command line.
• Allow other database connections than SQLite3 by passing a connection string to the --database command line option. Examples:
  • SQLite3 file database: --database filename.db (as before)
  • Connection URI: --database postgresql://rla:rla@localhost/requests
  • ODBC-style: --database adapter=mysql;username=root;host=localhost;database=requests
  • Memory database: --database adapter=sqlite3;database=:memory:
• Keep the previous database by default, pass the --reset-database option to clear the database before parsing.
• Added an IRB console to inspect a request database just like Rails’s script/console. Run with
  request-log-analyzer console -d <connection string>
• Fixed some require paths that were causing problems.
