Persistent storage of statistics? #2

Closed mattgphoto closed 5 years ago

mattgphoto commented 5 years ago

Hey Greg, sorry to bug you again :-) Was curious, do you happen to have Btree set up with this at all? Persistence of statistics would be the last possible thing I could think of.

Right now once the logs rotate, all statistics are gone in goaccess.

I think this is the solution, but not sure how to... dockerize that: https://goaccess.io/faq#installation "How to use the on-disk database instead of keeping everything in memory?"

Hi Matt,

Persistent storage support is a good idea. Looks like GoAccess requires being built with a flag for btree to utilize the Tokyo Cabinet's on-disk B+ Tree package.

As far as I can tell there's no configuration available for switching types of storage at runtime, so I'm thinking of creating another tag for the container w/ the name btree.

Let me take a look at some of this and get back to you with the results.

You are a machine, sir! I'll be happy to go over them and help test if you need any help!

Got around to doing some work with this. It appears there may be some unfortunate limitations while using Docker in combination with the btree functionality. Got a docker build going with tokyocabinet included, but getting an error early on in the launch process of GoAccess. https://github.com/allinurl/goaccess/issues/708

Looks like we may be out of luck until GoAccess gets an update or we find an alternative piece of software.

No worries at all. I completely understand and I really appreciate your help!
