wtop is like "top" for your web server. How many searches or sign-ups are happening per second? What is the response time histogram for your static files? wtop shows you at a glance.
logrep is a powerful command-line program for ad-hoc analysis and filtering. Spot-check page performance, errors, aggregate statistics, etc.
Spot-check page performance, errors, aggregate statistics, etc:
$ logrep -o 'status,count(*),avg(msec),min(msec),max(msec)' access.log 200 4196 244.58 3 589 302 5 79.75 17 42 404 1 9.00 9 9 304 798 158.76 0 694
See how robot traffic rises and falls by day:
$ logrep --robots-only --output \
    'botname,month,day,count(*),avg(msec),dev(msec)' --sort '30:1,2,3:asc'

This library currently requires compatibility with:
- 2.6
 - 2.7
 
However, additional versions are tested automatically:
This will put logrep and wtop in your executable path, and drop the default wtop.cfg into a location appropriate to the installation (platform appropriate path separaters are used). It searches for the config in the following order:
- VirtualEnv + /etc/wtop.cfg
 - PYTHONUSERBASE + /etc/wtop.cfg
 - USER_BASE + /etc/wtop.cfg
 - Python Lib + /etc/wtop.cfg
 - /etc/wtop.cfg
 
Invoke logrep -d to see which location it used.
wtop/logrep require Python version 2.6 or greater.
wtop can be installed from PyPI via pip like so:
sudo pip install wtop
The wtop source can be downloaded from the GitHub releases.
This is a Python source distribution. Install it like so:
sudo python setup.py install
See Install - wtop wiki.
Change directory into repository (into same directory as where this README resides).
Install virtual environment:
mkvirtualenv -a . -r tests/requirements.txt wtop_test
If installing requirements errors, update pip:
pip install --upgrade pip
Install requirements:
pip install -r tests/requirements.txt
Run pytest:
py.test
To test against alternate Python versions, it may be useful to create virtual
environments with an interpreter other than the one with which virtualenv
was installed, e.g. for non-default python3:
mkvirtualenv -a $(pwd) -p $(which python3) -r tests/requirements.txt wtop_test3
