Adiscon LogAnalyzer reading all files from a directory

Hi all,

Adiscon LogAnalyzer  is a very good web interface to read,search,sort you log files. It can read logs from files as well as from databases(such as mysql). While reading from log files, you have to specify log files in config file. Recently I came across a scenario where I have read all log files from a directory. Log files are being dynamically generated and appended(by rsyslog).

For that to work I added following code at end of  config.php file


$CFG['DefaultSourceID'] = 'Source1';


$result=array();
$temp_result=array();

$log_dir="/var/log/sitelogs";

function find_all_files($dir)
{
    $temp_result=array();

    $root = scandir($dir);
    foreach($root as $value)
    {
        $temp_result=array();

        if($value === '.' || $value === '..') {continue;}
        if(is_file("$dir/$value")) {$result[]="$dir/$value";continue;}

        $temp_result=find_all_files("$dir/$value");
        if(is_array($temp_result)&&sizeof($temp_result)>0)
        {
        foreach($temp_result as $value)
        {
            $result[]=$value;
        }
        }
    }
    return $result;
}

$files =find_all_files($log_dir);

$i=1;

foreach($files as $file)
{
$file_source_name=substr($file,strlen($log_dir));


$CFG['Sources']['Source'.$i]['ID'] = 'Source'.$i;
$CFG['Sources']['Source'.$i]['Name'] = $file_source_name;
$CFG['Sources']['Source'.$i]['ViewID'] = 'SYSLOG';
$CFG['Sources']['Source'.$i]['SourceType'] = SOURCE_DISK;
$CFG['Sources']['Source'.$i]['LogLineType'] = 'syslog';
$CFG['Sources']['Source'.$i]['DiskFile'] = $file;

$i=$i+1;
}


Telling in simple way, I enlisted all files in the directory in array and pushed that array into the configuration file. please make sure that your log directory is readable by apache web server.
