Description: 
        OVERVIEW
        
        Graphite Log Feeder (GLF) is a generic tool that can parse Grinder
        log files, extract meaningful data, and forward it to Graphite for
        visualizing.  In theory it will be simple to support many log types:
        Apache, Scribe, etc.  However today the only log parser implementation
        is for Grinder logs.
        
        There is a similar tool -- Logster -- which also feeds log data
        to Graphite.  However, Logster only supports realtime log analysis,
        making it impossible to feed it a log from a few days (or more) in
        the past.
        
        
        
        INSTALLATION
        
        GLF is installed via pip.
        
        pip install graphite_log_feeder
        
        Once pip has installed glf, you will need to generate a
        sample config file, and edit it to be suitable for your
        environment.
        
        graphite_log_feeder.py -e
        
        
        There must be a running installation of Graphite on your
        network for GLF to forward data to.  See the Graphite web site for
        details on setting up and configuring Graphite
        
        http://graphite.wikidot.com/
        
        
        
        USAGE
        
        (after adjusting the values in your sample config file to be
        appropriate for your environment)
        
        graphite_log_feeder.py  <config_file>
        
        
        
        
        ADDITIONAL RESOURCES
        
        Java/JMX counters and application-level metrics can be fed to
        Graphite using the JMXTrans tool:
        
        http://code.google.com/p/jmxtrans/
        
        OS-level metrics (CPU, mem, etc.) can be fed to Graphite via
        quickstatd or collectd (with graphite plugin)
