Hi! |

|

I'm pleased to announce the first public release of Wasabi, a custom log |
4 |
monitoring tool. |
5 |
|
6 |
This is an official Gentoo hosted project initially developed for Gentoo |
7 |
infrastructure servers. |

Here's an extract from the README: |

- What's wasabi? |

Wasabi is a log monitoring program, designed to watch a log file for lines |
21 |
matching user defined regular expression and report on the matches. The regular |
22 |
expressions are assigned to queues which have an alert interval and a list of |
23 |
mail recipients. |
24 |
|
25 |
Queues can be set to send a notification as soon as there is a log line assigned |
26 |
to it, or to send periodic reports. |
27 |
|
28 |
Additionally uninteresting fields in the log messages (such as PID numbers) can |
29 |
be masked with the standard regular expressions grouping operators ( ). This |
30 |
allows cleaner and more readable reports. All reports are separated by hostname |
31 |
and all messages are condensed when possible. |
32 |
|
33 |
The program reads a configuration file (wasabi.conf) and then forks a deamon for |
34 |
monitoring the specified log file. |
35 |
|
36 |
Please read the example wasabi.conf and wasabi.8 man page for usage |
37 |
instructions. |
