This is a simple docker container log scanner written in Python, I was trying to filter out real views from bots on my music discovery tools. It uses the docker python library – pip install docker should grab it.

a quick python script for accessing + searching Docker log files

I used it to try and sort real visitors from fake ones

import docker
client = docker.from_env()
containerlist = client.containers.list()
ignorelist = []
getlist = ['bestof', 'favicon', '/database', 'GET / ', '/update' ]
#getlist = ['GET /bestof']
for containername in containerlist:
    if containername.name not in ignorelist:
        print(containername.name)
        logs = containername.logs().decode().split('\n')
        #print(logs)
        for containerlogs in logs:
            if any(word in containerlogs for word in getlist):
                newstr = containerlogs.split('"')
                if len(newstr) is 9:
                    #print(newstr)
                    ua = newstr[5][0:200]
                    ip = newstr[7]
                    ref = newstr[3]
                    visited = newstr[1]
                    if ip == '-':
                        ip = newstr[0].split(' ')[0]
                    print(f'possible non-bot visitor: {ip} visited {visited}, related: {ref}, {ua}')

WordPress code blocks don’t work with python, but you can still copy and paste. (edit: now they do~) Here are some example results:
