How to parse docker logs output / tail output through goaccess? When I do:
docker container logs mycontainer > logs
and then goaccess -f logs it works perfectly, but if I do docker logs --tail all mycontainer | goaccess - it doesn't work :( but in the manual you can do this via tailing command: https://goaccess.io/man
tail -f access.log | goaccess -
Pls help :( I think the problem is that the native tailing differs from docker's?
What do you mean by "it doesn't work"? I got an error suggesting that the log format wasn't correct:
Fatal error has occurred
Error occured at: src/goaccess.c - set_curses - 1394
No time format was found on your conf file.
When I edited /etc/goaccess.conf (i.e. uncommented/selected time-format, date-format and log-format) the docker logs mycontainer | goaccess - command works as expected.
As an aside, for my nginx proxy inside my docker container, I had to set my log_format as follows:
log-format %v %h %^ %^ [%d:%t %^] "%r" %s %b "%R" "%u"
