Example of Log Table

Installing the Machbase package provides a tutorial that creates a log table, populates the generated table with the log data, and displays the log data.

You can find it in the path below.

[machbase@localhost tutorials]$ cd $MACHBASE_HOME/tutorials
[machbase@localhost tutorials]$ ls -l
total 0

Create Log Table

The log data to be input is a file in the following csv format.

[machbase@localhost csvload]$ cd $MACHBASE_HOME/tutorials/csvload
[machbase@localhost csvload]$ more sample_data.csv

Check each field value of log data and create a table. You can create it in machsql using ‘CREATE TABLE’ syntax.

CREATE TABLE SAMPLE_TABLE
(
    srcip        IPV4,
    srcport      INTEGER,
    dstip        IPV4,
    dstport      INTEGER,
    protocol     SHORT,
    eventlog     VARCHAR(1204),
    eventcode    SHORT,
    eventsize    LONG
);

Alternatively, you can create a table creation script file and run machsql on the OS command line.

[machbase@localhost csvload]$ machsql -s localhost -u sys -p manager -f create_sample_table.sql

Log Data Insert

Since the log data is a csv format file, you can load it using csvimport.

The first field in the log file is the date, which specifies the option to enter this value into the _arrival_time column.

[machbase@localhost csvload]$ csvimport -t sample_table -d sample_data.csv -a -F "_arrival_time YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS"
