# log_ingest

A Rust CLI tool for loading log files into a SQLite database for analysis.

## Overview

Parses application logs containing signature messages and loads them into SQLite for querying. Designed to handle large log volumes (10GB+ per day) with batched inserts and efficient parsing.

## Features

- Parse `signature:` messages extracting app info, device details, and feature flags
- Support for both plain `.log` and gzip compressed `.log.gz` files
- File discovery by date range using `YYYY/mm/dd` directory structure
- Batched inserts for performance with large files
- Parallel file processing for multi-day ingestion
- Indexed columns (`session_id`, `version`) for efficient queries
- Extensible parser architecture for adding new message types

## Installation

```bash
cargo build --release
```

## Usage

### Process a single file

```bash
log_ingest --file /path/to/logs.log --output output.db
```

### Process a date range

```bash
log_ingest \
  --from 2026/01/20 \
  --to 2026/01/21 \
  --base-dir /var/log/myapp \
  --filename app.log \
  --output output.db
```

The tool will look for files at `<base-dir>/YYYY/MM/DD/<filename>.gz` or `<base-dir>/YYYY/MM/DD/<filename>` for each day in the range.

### Parallel processing

When processing multiple files, parsing runs in parallel by default using all available CPU cores. A single writer thread handles database inserts to avoid SQLite contention.

```bash
# Use all CPU cores (default)
log_ingest --from 2026/01/01 --to 2026/01/31 ...

# Limit to 4 threads
log_ingest --threads 4 --from 2026/01/01 --to 2026/01/31 ...

# Sequential processing (disable parallelism)
log_ingest --threads 1 --from 2026/01/01 --to 2026/01/31 ...
```

### Options

| Option | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| `--file <PATH>` | Single log file to process |
| `--from <DATE>` | Start date (YYYY/mm/dd) |
| `--to <DATE>` | End date (YYYY/mm/dd) |
| `--base-dir <PATH>` | Base directory containing log files |
| `--filename <NAME>` | Log filename (e.g., `app.log`) |
| `-o, --output <PATH>` | Output SQLite database path |
| `--batch-size <N>` | Batch size for inserts (default: 10000) |
| `--threads <N>` | Number of parallel threads (0 = all cores, 1 = sequential) |

## Database Schema

The schema uses normalized lookup tables to minimize disk usage for large datasets.

```sql
-- Lookup tables for low-cardinality text columns
CREATE TABLE apps (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT NOT NULL UNIQUE);
CREATE TABLE versions (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT NOT NULL UNIQUE);
CREATE TABLE models (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT NOT NULL UNIQUE);
CREATE TABLE devices (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT NOT NULL UNIQUE);
CREATE TABLE os_versions (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT NOT NULL UNIQUE);
CREATE TABLE app_names (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT NOT NULL UNIQUE);

-- Main table with foreign keys and millisecond timestamp
CREATE TABLE signature_entries (
    id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
    session_id TEXT NOT NULL,
    timestamp_ms INTEGER NOT NULL,  -- Unix epoch milliseconds
    app_id INTEGER NOT NULL REFERENCES apps(id),
    version_id INTEGER NOT NULL REFERENCES versions(id),
    offline_login_usage INTEGER,
    is_password_autofill_enabled INTEGER,
    camera_roll_usage INTEGER,
    os_id INTEGER REFERENCES os_versions(id),
    app_name_id INTEGER REFERENCES app_names(id),
    touch_id INTEGER,
    is_offline_login_enabled INTEGER,
    model_id INTEGER REFERENCES models(id),
    device_id INTEGER REFERENCES devices(id),
    password_autofill_usage INTEGER
);

CREATE INDEX idx_session_id ON signature_entries(session_id);
CREATE INDEX idx_timestamp ON signature_entries(timestamp_ms);
CREATE INDEX idx_version ON signature_entries(version_id);
```

## Example Queries

```sql
-- Percentage of users with password autofill enabled
SELECT
    ROUND(100.0 * SUM(is_password_autofill_enabled) / COUNT(*), 2) as pct
FROM signature_entries;

-- Count by app version
SELECT v.name as version, COUNT(*) as cnt
FROM signature_entries se
JOIN versions v ON se.version_id = v.id
GROUP BY v.name
ORDER BY cnt DESC;

-- Device breakdown
SELECT d.name as device, COUNT(*) as cnt
FROM signature_entries se
JOIN devices d ON se.device_id = d.id
GROUP BY d.name;

-- Convert timestamp_ms to readable datetime
SELECT
    datetime(timestamp_ms / 1000, 'unixepoch') as timestamp,
    session_id
FROM signature_entries
LIMIT 10;
```

## Development

```bash
# Build
cargo build

cargo clippy
```

## Cross-Compilation

To build a Linux x86_64 binary from macOS:

1. Install [cargo-zigbuild](https://github.com/rust-cross/cargo-zigbuild) and [Zig](https://ziglang.org/):
   ```bash
   cargo install cargo-zigbuild
   brew install zig
   ```

2. Add the Linux target:
   ```bash
   rustup target add x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
   ```

3. Build:
   ```bash
   cargo zigbuild --release --target x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
   ```

The binary will be at `target/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/release/log_ingest`.
