LogsFilter

Application helps analyze logs. It is also a good example how QAbstractTableModel

Use

1. Create configuration file, which contains

• startEntryRegExp - regular expression for detecting line containing timestamp
• timeFormat - format use to convert string to date-time
• timeCaptureIndex - capture index of regular expression startEntryRegExp which will provide date-time
• tagCaptureIndex - capture index of tag column
• logTextCaptureIndex - capture index of content of logs entry

{
    "startEntryRegExp"    : "(\\d+-\\d+-\\d+ \\d+:\\d{2}:\\d{2}.\\d{3}) \\[(\\w+)\\]\\s*(.*)",
    "timeFormat"          : "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.zzz",
    "timeCaptureIndex"    : 1,
    "tagCaptureIndex"     : 2,
    "logTextCaptureIndex" : 3
}

2. Load it to application
3. Load logs which suppose to be analyzed
4. Select time zone of logs to show time in local time
5. Provide filter pattern: literal or regular expression
