Tooling for submitting JSON dumps of Puppet reports to ElasticSearch

Project description

Summary

Send puppet reports to ElasticSearch.

Usage

Command

send_report_to_es [-h|--help] <directory>

Options

-h/--help   Show this help text and exit

Parameters

directory   A directory containing JSON reports. The script will
            walk the directory recursively, process all JSON files
            it finds, and submit the report data to ElasticSearch
            in a single bulk transaction.

Configuring

Configuration is read from the file specified in the environment variable PUPPET_ES_CONFIG (defaults to /etc/puppet_es.conf) and uses ConfigParser syntax. A sample configuration file is included as etc/puppet_es.conf.example.

Section: base

``on_error`` (optional) What to do with the report files when we encounter a parse error or an ElasticSearch error. Possible values:

  • delete Delete the file off disk

  • archive Move the file to the directory specified in archive_dir

  • ignore Leave the file as-is (default)

``on_success`` (optional) What to do with the report file after successfully posting to ElasticSearch. Possible values:

  • delete Delete the file off disk

  • archive Move the file to the directory specified in archive_dir

  • ignore Leave the file as-is (default)

``archive_dir`` (conditionally required) The directory to move files into when archive is set for on_error or on_success. Has no effect if neither of those is set to archive, and is required if either is set to archive.

Section: elasticsearch

``host`` (required) The fully qualified domain name for connecting to ElasticSearch over HTTP.

``port`` (required) The port for connecting to ElasticSearch over HTTP.

``index`` (optional) The index name to send data to. This can be a Python formatted string in the Formatter style, with the following available variables:

  • certname the certname the report is from

  • fqdn the fqdn of the node this script is running on

  • isoday the ISO day number for the report

  • isoweek the ISO week number for the report

  • isoyear the ISO year number for the report

  • day the numerical day of the year for the report

  • month the numerical month of the year for the report

  • year the year for the report

Defaults to 'puppet-{isoyear}.{isoweek}'

Section: logging

``level`` (optional) What message level to log. Valid options are those defined by the Python 2.7 logging module. Defaults to WARNING.

``stderr`` (optional) Boolean value about whether to print log messages to stderr. Defaults to false.

``syslog`` (optional) Boolean value about whether to print log messages to syslog. Defaults to true.

``file`` (optional) Filename for a file to write log messages into. Defaults to an empty value, meaning do not log to a file.

Configuring ElasticSearch

An example ElasticSearch template that supports the format this script uses can be found at etc/puppet_template.json.
