AWS Kinesis Firehose Apache Log to JSON Processor

A Node.JS processor that converts Apache logs in combined log format into JSON. These files can be sent to AWS Elasticsearch.

Getting started

Before you begin, you will need to rename the resources.yml.sample file at the top-level directory of this project to resources.yml. This is a simple YAML file that includes the log groups, log streams, and S3 buckets that you want to allow the deployed AWS Lambda function to access.

Install

Dependencies

The following dependencies will need to be installed first to build this package:

After dependencies have been installed, run the following from a bash terminal:

npm install

Usage

sls deploy --stage=dev

This will deploy an AWS Lambda function into the us-east-1 region. You will then need to include the ARN for that AWS Lambda in your Kinesis Firehose configuration by enabling data transformation and pointing it at the Lambda function.

Acknowledgements

I would like to thank @uw-it-edm and the work done on the kinesis-firehose-apachelog-to-json repository which was the starting point for this project. Much of the code from this original repository was borrowed and refactored.
