Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

What is Logagent

Logagent is a modern, open-source, light-weight log shipper. It is like Filebeat and Logstash in one, without the JVM memory footprint. It comes with out of the box and extensible log parsing, on-disk buffering, secure transport, and bulk indexing to Elasticsearch, Sematext Logs, and other destinations. Its low memory footprint and low CPU overhead make it suitable for deploying on edge nodes and devices, while its ability to parse and structure logs makes it a great Logstash alternative.

Docker

Details about the the Logagent Docker image are described in the Docker Hub Readme

Installation

1) Install Node.js

Official Node.js downloads and instructions. E.g. for Debian/Ubuntu:

curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_10.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
Install Logagent with npm
sudo npm i -g @sematext/logagent

2) Run logagent command line tool

logagent --help

3) Example: Index your log files in Elasticsearch

logagent -e http://localhost:9200 -i logs -g ‘/var/log/**/*.log’

4) Optional: Install service & config

Install service for Logagent using systemd, upstart, launchd To quickly create a config file for indexing into Elasticsearch without having to edit it run something like this:

sudo logagent-setup -u http://localhost:9200 -i INDEX_NAME -g '/var/log/**/*.log'
# Logsene US: use -u https://logsene-receiver.sematext.com and your Logsene App Token as index name.
# Logsene EU: use -u https://logsene-receiver.eu.sematext.com and your Logsene App Token as index name.

Configuration

To configure different inputs, different event processing, or different outputs (e.g. your own Elasticsearch) edit /etc/sematext/logagent.conf, e.g.:

output:
  logsene:
    module: elasticsearch
    url: http://elasticsearch-server:9200
    index: logs

Then restart the service with sudo service logagent restart. Troubleshooting & Logs Logagent’s own logs:

  • Upstart: /var/log/upstart/logagent.log
  • Systemd: journalctl -u logagent
  • Launchd: /Library/Logs/logagent.log

Location of service scripts:

  • Upstart: /etc/init/logagent.conf
  • Systemd: /etc/systemd/system/logagent.service
  • Launchd: /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.sematext.logagent.plist

Start/stop service:

  • Upstart: service logagent stop/start
  • Systemd: systemctl stop/start logagent
  • Launchd: launchctl start/stop com.sematext.logagent
