… log files
What changes are you trying to make? (e.g. Adding or removing code, refactoring existing code, adding reports)
Added functionality to the project setup Bash script to organize log files into server, user, and event directories. Scrubbed personal data identifying IP addresses and logged remaining file names in an inventory file.
What did you learn from the changes you have made?
Good introduction/refresher of Git processes.
Was there another approach you were thinking about making? If so, what approach(es) were you thinking of?
Creation of the inventory.txt file could have been done with "ls -R ./data/processed > inventory.txt", which would have distinguished which files were in which subdirectory. From the wording of the assignment, I decided this was undesirable.
Were there any challenges? If so, what issue(s) did you face? How did you overcome it?
No challenges.
How were these changes tested?
It was noticed that each of the log types had 50 files, excluding the IP address user files. Some lines were tested in the terminal before running through the script. The final output was checked for the completed script.
Directories were visually checked that files were included iff they were named appropriately. To confirm the number of files, the command
" ls newproject/data/processed/<log_type>_logs/ -1 | wc -l"
was run for each directory to list the files, one per line, and count the number of lines.
