I am trying to read a binary log file to extract system counters.
These counters will then be used to generate web-based graphs using
the chart-director api in python. For extracting the counters I
planning to write a program in C to read and give the output as lists
for use by chart-director. If possible i would like to do the parsing
of data only once in C on the log file and pass the processed output
for direct use by python.
I have thought about having to populate a database first but will
prefer to avoid having another intermediate datastore (apart from the
log file).
As you might guess I was typing my response before reading the above. So
you answered my question.
NOW: why not read and parse the log file in Python?
