Write your own regex

Just to show you how you can easily write your own configuration file.

First,

go to http://localhost/PimpMyLog/inc/test.php. You should have this error message :

Then touch the requested file :

cd inc
touch test.REMOVE_UPPERCASE.php

Then reload the page.

Copy :

1. some logs
   
2. the regex
   
3. the match array
   
4. the types array

In this article, I have copied these values :

RegEx

|^((\S*) )*(\S*) (\S*) (\S*) \[(.*)\] "(\S*) (.*) (\S*)" ([0-9]*) (.*)( "(.*)" "(.*)"( [0-9]*/([0-9]*))*)*$|U

Match

{
    "Date"    : 6,
    "IP"      : 3,
    "CMD"     : 7,
    "URL"     : 8,
    "Code"    : 10,
    "Size"    : 11,
    "Referer" : 13,
    "UA"      : 14,
    "User"    : 5,
    "\u03bcs" : 16
}

Types

{
    "Date"    : "date:H:i:s",
    "IP"      : "ip:geo",
    "URL"     : "txt",
    "Code"    : "badge:http",
    "Size"    : "numeral:0b",
    "Referer" : "link",
    "UA"      : "ua:{os.name} {os.version} | {browser.name} {browser.version}\/100",
    "\u03bcs" : "numeral:0,0"
}

Then when I click on the blue Test button, Pimp My Log parses logs and displays each log with found values. For example, the first log has been parsed and here is the result :

#1 66.249.76.225 - - [07/May/2014:10:18:04 +0200] "GET /index.php/torrini HTTP/1.1" 200 14177 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Googlebot/2.1; +http://www.google.com/bot.html)"
   Date   : 10:18:04
   IP     : 66.249.76.225
   CMD    : GET
   URL    : /index.php/torrini
   Code   : 200
   Size   : 14177
   Referer: -
   UA     : Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Googlebot/2.1; +http://www.google.com/bot.html)
   User   : -
   μs    :

Feel free now to modify the regex, the match array and the types array to fit your needs. When you are done, click on the green Copy to clipboard button to copy the result ready to be parsed in your config.user.json file.
