NAME

DADA::App::LogSearch - Simple Searching of PlainText Logs for Dada Mail

VERSION

Refer to the version of Dada Mail that this module comes in.

SYNOPSIS

 my $query     = 'find me'; 
 my $searcher  = DADA::App::LogSearch->new; 
 
 my $results   = $searcher->search({
        -query => $query,
        -files => ['/home/account/dada_files/logs/dada_usage.txt'], 
 
 });

DESCRIPTION

This module provides a very simple interface to find a term in a list of files that you supply.

SUBROUTINES/METHODS

new

Takes no arguments. Returns a DADA::App::LogSearch object.

search

Takes two arguments - both are required. They are:

-query

Its value should be a string.

This is the search term you're looking for. If you're search term has a space in it, for example, search term, this module will search for both search and term seperately.

-files

Its value should be an array ref

This is the list of files you'd like to search in. Use absolute paths to these files, ala:

 my $results   = $searcher->search({
        -query => $query,
        -files => [
                   '/home/account/dada_files/logs/dada_usage.txt',
                   '/home/account/dada_files/logs/errors.txt'
                 ], 
  
 });

This method will return a hashref. The key of the hashref is the name of the log file that you gave. Each value of the hashref is an arrayfref that holds the lines that match your query.

html_highlight_line

Takes two arguments - both are required -

They are:

-query

Its value should be a string.

This is the search term you're looking for.
-line

Its value is a string - basically, one of the results that the LogSearch object brings back.

Example

Here's an example of how this object can be used:

  use DADA::App::LogSearch
  my $query     = 'find me'; 
  
  my $searcher  = DADA::App::LogSearch->new; 
 
  my $results   = $searcher->search({
        -query => $query,
        -files => [
                   '/home/account/dada_files/logs/dada_usage.txt',
                   '/home/account/dada_files/logs/errors.txt'
                 ], 
 
 }); 
 
 for my $file_name(keys %$results){ 
     if($results->{$file_name}->[0]){ 
         print '<h1>' . $file_name . '</h1>'; 
         for my $l(@{$results->{$file_name}}){ 
             print '<p>' . $searcher->html_highlight_line({-query =>  $query, -line => $l }) . '</p>';               
          }
      }
  }
