This is a simple java application that parses access logs, saves them into a database and searches the log for ip addresses that meet specified criteria.

Features:

• Parse Log files and save them into database
• Search saved log file for ip addresses that meet given criteria

Project uses maven as build system. You can easily build the project by executing following maven command:

mvn clean pakcage

Then after the project has been built you can execute it with simple java jar command:

java -jar target/parser.jar [options]

Options are key value pairs separated by space:

• Start Date

  Argument: startDate
  Type: DateTime
  Format: yyyy-MM-dd.HH:mm:ss
  Required: true
  Example: --startDate=2017-01-01.00:00:00

  start date of the database search. Must be provided in yyyy.MM.dd.HH:mm:ss format

• Duration

  Argument: duration
  Type: Enum
  Format: Hourly | Daily
  Required: true
  Example: --duration=daily

  Duration determines range that will be searched in database. Duration can have two values HOURLY or DAILY. Hourly will define time range of one hour from startDate argument while Daily will define range of one day from startDate argument.

• Threshold

  Argument: threshold
  Type: int
  format: number
  Required: true
  Example: --threshold=500

  number of the requests in given range that will trigger restriction.

• Access Log

  Argument: accesslog
  Type: file
  Format: String
  Required: false
  Example: --accesslog=data/access.log

  Location of the log file that will be parsed and inserted into the database. Log File must be a csv file following format:
  date (yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS) | ip address | http method | http response | http client

Example without accesslog:

java -jar target/parser.jar --startDate=2017-01-01.00:00:00 --duration=daily --threshold=500

Example with accesslog:

java -jar target/parser.jar --startDate=2017-01-01.15:00:00 --duration=hourly --threshold=200 --accesslog=data/access.log

note: accesslog will be processed first in order to populate the database for search

Example with -cp parameter:

java -cp target/parser.jar com.ef.Parser --startDate=2017-01-01.00:00:00 --duration=daily --threshold=200 --accesslog=data/access.log

Unit tests are located inside src/test directory. Tests are automatically run during package and install phase. If you need to manually run just unit tests you can do so by executing:

mvn test

Integration tests are found in src/it directory suffixed with IT.java. These tests will not be run during package but will be run during install phase of maven lifecycle, tests can also be run manually with the following command:

mvn verify

note: This will also trigger Unit Tests

Data folder contains utility files that can help with app development:

• access.log - example log file that has proper format required by the app
• docker-database.sh - executable shell script that will bootstrap mysql:8.0 server with proper database and database access
• test-instructions.txt - original instructions for the project
• solution.sql - Solution of the sql questions. These scripts can also be found in src/main/resources/com/ef/repository/AccessLogRepository.xml

• Spring Boot 2 - dependency injection and bootstrapping framework
• MyBatis - Database access layer
• Project Reactor - Reactive streams
• Liquibase - Database versioning
• JCommander - for parsing cli arguments
• Maven - for packaging and testing application
