Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : angle-grinder Version : 0.12.0 Upstream Author : Russel Cohen * URL : https://github.com/rcoh/angle-grinder/ * License : MIT Programming Lang: Rust Description : Slice and dice logs on the command line
Angle-grinder allows you to parse, aggregate, sum, average, min/max, percentile, and sort your data. You can see it, live-updating, in your terminal. Angle grinder is designed for when, for whatever reason, you don't have your data in graphite/honeycomb/kibana/sumologic/splunk/etc. but still want to be able to do sophisticated analytics. Angle grinder can process well above 1M rows per second (simple pipelines as high as 5M), so it's usable for fairly meaty aggregation. The results will live update in your terminal as data is processed. Angle grinder is a bare bones functional programming language coupled with a pretty terminal UI. Angle-grinder can parse logfmt, json and arbitrary messages, through regular expressions. ---- In Debian, there are a few similar tools, apart from the traditional "grep, sed, cut, awk, perl" pipelines... jq is an obvious candidate, but it doesn't have angle-grinder's easier language and similarity with splunk queries. angle-grinder is also similar to visidata, but the latter is more aimed at spreadsheets than logs. Finally, I found out about angle-grinder while reading the lnav documentation, also present in Debian, which similarly parses log files but relies on sqlite for querying. I don't have time to package this and hope some rust(y) person would have time to handle it. :)
