Log file module?

jjhorner has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Has anyone written a module or package that contains methods for parsing the different types of standard log files (syslog-messages, syslog-secure, NCSA, W3)?

Or is this something anyone is working on?

I'm not quite ready to write something like this on my own.

Thanks,

Jon

Don't forget Parse::RecDescent, which takes "match this" to a whole new level! -- Randal L. Schwartz, Perl hacker	[reply]

There are 2 that I know of that may fit what you're looking for: SyslogScan designed for parsing syslog messages of various types. Logfile Helps you generate reports from different server logfiles.	[reply]
