GoAccess is a powerful open source real-time web log analyzer and interactive viewer that operates in a terminal on *nix systems or via your browser. It delivers lightning-fast and invaluable HTTP statistics for system administrators who need an instant server report.

GoAccess is a fast, terminal-based log analyzer designed to quickly analyze and view web server statistics in real time. It eliminates the need to use your browser, which is particularly useful for performing quick analysis of your access log via SSH or if you prefer working in the terminal.

Features

GoAccess parses the specified web log file and outputs the data to the X terminal. Features include:

  • Completely Real Time
    All panels and metrics are timed to be updated every 200 ms on the terminal output and every second on the HTML output.
  • Minimal Configuration needed
    You can just run it against your access log file, pick the log format and let GoAccess parse the access log and show you the stats.
  • Track Application Response Time
    Track the time taken to serve the request. Extremely useful if you want to track pages that are slowing down your site.
  • Nearly All Web Log Formats
    GoAccess allows any custom log format string. Predefined options include, Apache, Nginx, Amazon S3, Elastic Load Balancing, CloudFront, etc.
  • Incremental Log Processing
    Need data persistence? GoAccess has the ability to process logs incrementally through the on-disk persistence options.
  • Only one dependency
    GoAccess is written in C. To run it, you only need ncurses as a dependency. That's it. It even features its own Web Socket server — http://gwsocket.io/.
  • Visitors
    Determine the amount of hits, visitors, bandwidth, and metrics for slowest running requests by the hour, or date.
  • Metrics per Virtual Host
    Have multiple Virtual Hosts (Server Blocks)? It features a panel that displays which virtual host is consuming most of the web server resources.
  • ASN (Autonomous System Number mapping)
    Great for detecting malicious traffic patterns and block them accordingly.
  • Color Scheme Customizable
    Tailor GoAccess to suit your own color taste/schemes. Either through the terminal, or by simply applying the stylesheet on the HTML output.
  • Support for Large Datasets
    GoAccess features the ability to parse large logs due to its optimized in-memory hash tables. It has very good memory usage and pretty good performance. This storage has support for on-disk persistence as well.
  • Docker Support
    Ability to build GoAccess' Docker image from upstream. You can still fully configure it, by using Volume mapping and editing goaccess.conf. See Docker section below.
