- ChatLog viewer
Hi folks,
for some reason i created a website to view the dedicated chat log.
you can search for date and time, and you will get the player chat lines of the choosen time range.
i know there is a chat log function in xaseco, but the dedicated log it anyway.
now it's easy to spot check what happend on busy servers. or in case of complains, checking the truth.
i tried it with log file size ~250mb without any problem.
there is a configuration to ignore PM's and admin commands in case you want to use the page for public.
if you run more than one servers from same folder, the page will be able to search all servers.
copy all files to your web server.
just give the server login, server name and path to dedicated log folder.

actually, i have an idea of something i would need/use, and then i try to create it. and if i think it's good enough, i share it.
even if there only a few ppl downloading my tools, guess not all of them using it.

well, not so many ppl would need it.
offtopic in my own thread^^

Re: [PHP]Website Chat Log Viewer
Hello
Nice Tool it works fine
But two things:
1. My logfiles are not all in the same Dir.
i have a DIR like this:
TM
-->server1
---->logs
-->server2
---->logs
Is it possible that i can wright for every Server an own path in the script?
2. Everybody who have the URL can call this Page. I think it is better that you make a Passwortrequest in Front of that.

I knew that question would come.^^scg-flighthigh wrote:1. My logfiles are not all in the same Dir.

Basicly yes, but not with this script.

i'm also hosting servers. So my intention was to seperate different server folders, cause in my system a diff folder means another clan/group/user. I didn't want to have ALL servers in one page. Only the servers of one folder, which is one clan/group usually.
For you that means you have to make that page two times. one for each server. Or you save space and marge your servers. Havin the same group of servers in one folder also makes it easy to share tracks (eg RCP)

I know that. Due to i make all that scripts for myself first, i don't need seperate pw security for the pages. I use .htaccess security which is (imo) better and faster done than a script internal pw security. And i don't like having the password saved as cleartext.2. Everybody who have the URL can call this Page. I think it is better that you make a Passwortrequest in Front of that.
I know there are also ways to save a hash in db or txt file, but as i said. .htacces is faster done^^.
and also second idea was to have plublic access to this page, in case u disabled admin and pm.
so also here no change in near future sry.
but i am thinking about a bundle page which combine all my scripts in one. this i would make with pw security. but not planned yet.

Re: [PHP]Website Chat Log Viewer
Thanks for your explanations.
.htaccess is a way.
My intent was, that i want too look into the Chat because i search for Donation. Is it possible that i make there a Filterfunktion like this "/donation". Thats only what interested for me.

Re: [PHP]Website Chat Log Viewer
understood. i'll think about adding a filter. but it might be a good way to use "ctrl+f" and search the page you got.scg-flighthigh wrote:Thanks for your explanations.

first i wanted to add that filter, than i thought with the normal search function (windows ctrfl+f) i can filter in any way.
you see, i try not to to things which can be done in another was much faster/better/easier.

Re: [PHP]Website Chat Log Viewer
Nice script once again nouse. Thanks for sharing. I will install it today. And scg-flighthigh, you can simply keep the link leading to the "chatlog" page for yourself without password protections, htaccess etc etc. More simple ^^

Re: [PHP]Website Chat Log Viewer
Wow... all these webscripts, I'm starting to lose track of them...
Have you considered releasing them all in one package with a single login page and a main page to navigate through them all? They might even work great adapted into RemoteCP plugins...
Anyways, keep up the good work!

Re: [PHP]Website Chat Log Viewer
I have a small feature request: include track changes in the log (i.e. track changed [Track] >> [Another Track]), possibly toggle-able with a check box at the top of the viewer. I like to scan through the chatlog to get feedback about tracks on my server, but I currently am forced to look back in the actual log text file to see the name of the track.

Re: [PHP]Website Chat Log Viewer
i have problem
I put my server log file to my web server
and set path but it says "no log file here".
How i must name this log file?
eg: if my log is http://mof.pri.ee/chatlog/Gamelog.serverlogin.txt
Then i must put path /chatlog/ and server login must be: serverlogin?
