Introduction

This page is to capture the goaccess setup.

Configuration

Well it is not too completed

apt install goacess

To configure you should create a .goaccessrc as this allows you to use zcat more easily. I gave a sample - oo matron - to copilot and they gave me

time-format %T
date-format %d/%b/%Y
log-format %h %^ %^ [%d:%t %^] "%r" %s %b "%R" "%u"

Now we can do unprompted

goaccess /var/logs/nginx/www.example.com.log

Pressing o seems to expand the data and do dns resolution. Because we have already specified out formats we can use zcat

zcat -f /var/log/nginx/www.example.com.log.2.gz | goaccess

That's it
