Project description
Tail files, and do things with them.
Installation
Run pip install erudite or if it’s your thing: easy_install erudite. You’ll need to also get argparse if you’re using a Python less than 2.7.
This might work on Python 3+, but I haven’t tested it.
Examples
Send first words of your zsh history to [StatHat](http://www.stathat.com) (currently the default):
erudite –parser=zsh_history –logger=StatHatLogger –stathat-key=test@example.com ~/.zsh_history
If you just want to play around, and see what you can do:
erudite –parser=zsh_history –logger=PrintingLogger ~/.zsh_history
Developing
Parsers (used to parse lines) are in erudite/parsers.py, and loggers (used to do things with parsed lines) are in erudite/loggers.py.
Contributing
It would be totally awesome to have many many more options in this script. I’m totally open to contributions. But there are a few things that will help me:
- Your fork should have a topic branch with your feature, requesting to pull against develop
- Please don’t add any requirements for loggers to setup.py - catch ImportError and exit gracefully. (see StatHatLogger for an example)
- If you’re adding a parser, it would be awesome if you could attach some sample input.
- Just for fun, you might want to run pylint against your changes.
- If you’re changing default settings, it’s totally cool. Just ask me first.
- You should add yourself to Authors in the README.
In particular, here are some things/ideas that would be great to have:
- Parser for [bash](http://www.gnu.org/software/bash/) history
- Parser for database logs
- Logger for [redis][1]/[mongo][2]/whatever nosql store you want to use
- Logger for [StatsD](https://github.com/etsy/statsd)
- And if you’re feeling particularly ambitious: tests
