Fork of https://github.com/Beh01der/node-grok
This library is inspired by logstash grok filter but it's not a port of it.
More details about usage and implementation here https://memz.co/parsing-log-files-node-js-regex-grok/
This is a templating library that helps reusing existing regular expressions and constructing new, more complex one. The primary goal was to help parsing and transforming plain text logs into JSON objects (one line => one object) based on provided template.
Install locally: npm install grok-js
.
Following simple snippet
const p = '%{IP:client} \\[%{TIMESTAMP_ISO8601:timestamp}\\] "%{WORD:method} %{URIHOST:site}%{URIPATHPARAM:url}" %{INT:code} %{INT:request} %{INT:response} - %{NUMBER:took} \\[%{DATA:cache}\\] "%{DATA:mtag}" "%{DATA:agent}"';
const str = '203.35.135.165 [2016-03-15T12:42:04+11:00] "GET memz.co/cloud/" 304 962 0 - 0.003 [MISS] "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_10_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/48.0.2564.116 Safari/537.36"';
require('grok-js').loadDefault((err, patterns) => {
if (err) {
console.error(err);
return;
}
const pattern = patterns.createPattern(p);
pattern.parse(str, (err, obj) => {
if (err) {
console.error(err);
return;
}
console.log(obj);
});
});
will transform string

-
loadDefault([loadModules,] callback) - creates new pattern collection including all built-in patterns from
./patterns
folder. By providing loadModules parameter you can limit number of loaded patterns:loadDefault(['grok-patterns'] ,...);
. Callback receives patterns collection filled in with default templates:function(err, patterns)
. -
loadDefaultSync([loadModules]) - creates new default pattern collection and returns it
GrokCollection
. -
new GrokCollection() - creates a new empty pattern collection.
-
GrokCollection.createPattern(expression, [id]) - creates new pattern and adds it to the collection. Find out more about pattern syntax here and about regular expression syntax here
-
GrokCollection.getPattern(id) - returns existing pattern
GrokPattern
-
GrokCollection.load(filePath, callback) - asynchronously loads patterns from file. Callback is
function(err)
. -
GrokCollection.loadSync(filePath) - loads patterns from file and returns number of newly loaded patterns
number
-
GrokPattern.parse(str, callback) - parses string using corresponding pattern. Callback function receives optional error and resulting object result:
function(error, result)
-
GrokPattern.parseSync(str) - parses string using corresponding pattern and returns resulting object
object
