Logan-iq: Multi-Log Analysis Tool

An interactive command-line tool for parsing, filtering, summarizing, and exporting log files. Supports multiple log formats with flexible regex patterns and fully customizable user preferences.

⚠️ Installation Notice

Version 1.0.1 contains unintended scripts and should not be used.
Please install v1.0.2 or later for proper functionality and stability.

Features

• Parse logs using default or custom regex patterns
• Interactive and user-friendly CLI interface
• Filter logs by level, date range, keyword or result limit
• Generate summary tables with counts per level or per day
• Export logs in CSV or JSON formats
• Clean, colorful, and easy-to-read terminal output

Install

Package is available on PyPI

  pip install logan-iq
  
  logan-iq interactive

This makes the logan-iq command available in your terminal and then runs the interactive mode.

🖥️ Startup

How it Works

Core flow:

1. Load Config or Defaults:

Loads user preferences from config.json if it exists. CLI arguments always override the config file. If no file is provided and no config exists, the app prompts the user to specify a file.

2. Parse Log File:

Each log line is converted into a structured dictionary with fields like datetime, level, message,and optionally ip or other fields depending on the format.

3. Filter (Optional):

Narrow results by log level, date range, keyword(s) search or limit the number of entries displayed.
NOTE: Keyword search covers message, method, path and status/status_code if they exist in json logs.

4. Analyze or Summarize:

Display logs in a terminal table or generate summary reports.

5. Export (Optional):

Export filtered data to CSV or JSON for further analysis.

Available Formats

You can supply your own regex directly via CLI or in saved configs custom_regex. Or use the Built-in formats:

• simple → generic logs with datetime, level and message

2025-08-28 12:34:56 [INFO] Server started: Listening on port 8080

• apache → Apache access logs (common format)

192.200.2.2 - - [28/Aug/2025:12:34:56 +0000] "GET /index.html HTTP/1.1" 200 512

• nginx → Nginx access logs (combined format, includes referrer & user-agent)

192.100.1.1 - - [28/Aug/2025:12:34:56 +0000] "GET /index.html HTTP/1.1" 200 1024 "http://example.com" "Mozilla/5.0"

• json → JSON formatted logs (one object per line)

{
  "datetime": "2025-08-28 12:34:56",
  "level": "INFO",
  "message": "Server started",
  "method": "GET",
  "status": 200,
  "path": "/api/v1/users"
}

• custom → Any user-defined regex Example (inline via CLI):

  logan-iq analyze --file logs/app.log --format custom --regex "^(?P<ts>\S+) (?P<level>\w+) (?P<msg>.*)$"

Or define in saved configs:

{
  "default_file": "logs/custom_app.log",
  "format": "custom",
  "custom_regex": "^(?P<ts>\\S+) (?P<level>\\w+) (?P<msg>.*)$"
}

Running the CLI

Once installed, commands can be run directly via logan-iq:

• Interactive Mode

    logan-iq interactive
    
    logan-iq>> analyze --file app.log
    logan-iq>> summarize --file app.log --format simple
    
    logan-iq>> filter-logs --search "500 Server Error"
    logan-iq>> filter-logs --level ERROR --start 2025-11-01 --end 2025-11-08
    logan-iq>> export-logs csv --file app.log --output exported_logs/output.csv
    logan-iq>> export-logs json --file app.log --output exported_logs/output.json
    logan-iq>> export-logs json --search "'404 Client Error" --file app.log --output exported_logs/output.json
    
    logan-iq>> config set --default-file app.log --format simple
    logan-iq>> config show
    logan-iq>> config delete --key default_file
    
    logan-iq>> exit

• Analyze Logs

  logan-iq analyze --file/ path/to/logfile.log --format apache

• Custom Regex

  logan-iq analyze --file app.log --format custom --regex "^(?P<ts>\\S+) (?P<msg>.*)$"

• Summarize Log Levels

  logan-iq summarize --file path/to/logfile.log

• Filter Log Levels

  logan-iq filter-logs --file app.log --level ERROR --search "500 Server Error" --start 2025-11-01 --end 2025-11-08

• Export Logs

  logan-iq export-logs --file path/to/logfile.log --output csv

• Shorthand flags

You can also use shorthand flags like:

  -f     # --file 
  -df    # --default-file
  -r     # --custom-regex
  -cr    # --custom-regex (for configs)
  -l     # --level
  -s     # --search
  -lm    # --limit
  -st    # --start
  -e     # --end
  -d     # --day
  -o     # --output
  -k     # --key

Configuration

On installation, a .logan-iq_config.json is created on the user's system in the root directory.

• To show configurations

    logan-iq interactive
    logan-iq>> config show

• To modify configurations

    logan-iq>> config set --default-file logs/access.log --format nginx
    logan-iq>> config set --format custom --custom-regex "^(?P<ts>\\S+) (?P<msg>.*)$"

Example with built-in format:

{
  "default_file": "logs/server_logs.log",
  "format": "nginx"
}

Example with custom format:

{
  "default_file": "logs/app.log",
  "format": "custom",
  "custom_regex": "^(?P<ts>\\S+) (?P<msg>.*)$"
}

• CLI args always override config values.

• If neither CLI args nor config exist, the app prompts for a file.

Deleting configuration entries

You can delete configuration entries using the config delete command.

• Delete a single key:

    logan-iq config delete default_file

• Delete all keys (requires confirmation):

    logan-iq config delete all

If you run the command without either --key or --all you'll receive a helpful message explaining the available options.

Dependencies

• CLI built with Typer
• Pretty tables via Tabulate
• Colored output via PyFiglet
• Unit testing via Pytest
