Paris, France - October 17th, 2012 DALIBO is proud to announce the release of version 2.1 of pgBadger, the new PostgreSQL log analyzer. pgBadger is built for speed with fully detailed reports from your PostgreSQL log file. It's a single and small Perl script that aims to replace and to outperform the old PHP script pgFouine. ===== pgBadger 2.1 allows more flexibility ===== pgBadger is back with a new release and some long-awaited features: * you can now use a custom log_line_prefix (see below) * you can provide log files compressed with gzip, bzip2 or zip tools * you can use log_duration instead of log_min_duration_statement This new release comes with some bugfixes and many improvements such as : * Huge overhaul of the cvslog format parsing for better performance * New syslog-ng parser * Better handling of empty graphs and tables * Handling of autovacuum launcher messages * Report of configuration changes For the complete list of changes, please checkout the release note on https://github.com/dalibo/pgbadger/blob/master/ChangeLog All pgBadger users should upgrade as soon as possible. ===== How to use the new --prefix parameter ? ===== With pgBadger 2.1, you don't need to modify the log_line_prefix parameter in the postgresql.conf file. Instead you can use the --prefix option to describe your log_line_prefix to pgBadger. For instance, you can run the following command line: perl pgbadger --prefix '%m %u@%d %p %r %a : ' postgresql.log However, if you are using the stderr output, you will need to log at least the timestamp (%t), the PID (%p) and the session/line number (%l). ===== Links & Credits ===== DALIBO would like to thank the developers who submitted patches and the users who reported bugs and feature requests, especially Philip Freeman, Casey Allen Shobe and Vincent Laborie. pgBadger is an open project.
