Search Terms HTTPD Log Macro

=search_terms() is a script macro to report search terms in the HTTPD log file.

search_terms(site, s)
 
	init
		status =piktstatus
		level =piktlevel
		task "Report new search terms"
		input logfile "=httpd_logdir/access_log_(site)"
		filter "=httpd_cgibin_root/webstats.pl -f -(s) -sl |
                        =httpd_cgibin_root/searchterms.pl | =sort | =uniq -c | =sort +0n"
	rule
		output mail $inlin

webstats.pl is a Perl script (not shown) to filter HTTPD log files and output certain types of information in various formats.

You might invoke the =search_terms() macro in your alarms.cfg for more than one website log file thusly:

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
 
SearchTermsEMC
 
        =search_terms(emc, e)
 
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
 
SearchTermsPIKT
 
        =search_terms(pikt, p)
 
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Output from the SearchTermsEMC script might look like, for example:

INFO:
    SearchTermsEMC
        Report new search terms
              1  early+music+chicago
              1  robert+osterlund+early+music
              1  portative+organ+kit
              1  rameau s+gavotte+and+violin
              ...

And output from the SearchTermsPIKT script might look like, for example:

INFO:
    SearchTermsPIKT
        Report new search terms

              1   +path+macros
              1  define+undefine
              1  elif+ ifdef+ elsedef+ endif
              1  if+define
              1  load+average +threshold
              1  postfix access
              ...
