Questions tagged [goaccess]

GoAccess is an open source real-time web log analyzer and interactive viewer that runs in a terminal in *nix systems. It provides fast and valuable HTTP statistics for system administrators that require a visual server report on the fly.

GoAccess allows any custom log format string. Predefined options include, but not limited to:

  • Amazon CloudFront (Download Distribution).
  • Apache/Nginx
  • Common/Combined + Virtual hosts
  • W3C format (IIS)

GoAccess is being able to quickly analyze and view web server statistics in real time without having to generate an HTML report (great if you want to do a quick analysis of your access log via SSH).

Although it is possible to generate an HTML, JSON, CSV report, by default it outputs to a terminal.
