Create a log stream

First, we'll need to create a log stream. This is a one time operation, and we recommend storing log entries with same schema in a single log stream. So, for example, you can use one log stream per application (given that all logs from that application have the same schema).

package main

import (
"fmt"
"io/ioutil"
"net/http"
)

func main() {
// TODO: Replace the url with your Parseable URL and stream name
url := "https://<parseable-url>/api/v1/logstream/<stream-name>"
method := "PUT"

client := &http.Client{}
req, err := http.NewRequest(method, url, nil)

if err != nil {
fmt.Println(err)
return
}

// TODO: Replace the basic auth credentials with your Parseable credentials
req.Header.Add("Authorization", "Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4=")

res, err := client.Do(req)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println(err)
return
}
defer res.Body.Close()

body, err := ioutil.ReadAll(res.Body)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println(err)
return
}
fmt.Println(string(body))
}

Send logs to the log stream

After log stream is created, you can start sending logs to the log stream using HTTP POST requests.

package main

import (
"fmt"
"io/ioutil"
"net/http"
"strings"
)

func main() {

// TODO: Replace the url with your Parseable URL and stream name
url := "https://<parseable-url>/api/v1/logstream/<stream-name>"
method := "POST"

payload := strings.NewReader(`[{
"id": "434a5f5e-2f5f-11ed-a261-asdasdafgdfd",
"datetime": "24/Jun/2022:14:12:15 +0000",
"host": "153.10.110.81",
"user-identifier": "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:64.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/64.0",
"method": "PUT",
"status": 500,
"referrer": "http://www.google.com/"
}]`)

client := &http.Client{}
req, err := http.NewRequest(method, url, payload)

if err != nil {
fmt.Println(err)
return
}
// INFO: Use X-P-META-<key>:<value> to add custom metadata to the log event
req.Header.Add("X-P-META-Host", "192.168.1.3")
// INFO: Use X-P-TAG-<key>:<value> to add tags to the log event
req.Header.Add("X-P-TAG-Language", "golang")
// TODO: Replace the basic auth credentials with your Parseable credentials
req.Header.Add("Authorization", "Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4=")
req.Header.Add("Content-Type", "application/json")

res, err := client.Do(req)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println(err)
return
}
defer res.Body.Close()

body, err := ioutil.ReadAll(res.Body)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println(err)
return
}
fmt.Println(string(body))
}

Querying a log stream

Once you have started sending logs to a log stream, you can query the logs using standard SQL.

package main

import (
"fmt"
"io/ioutil"
"net/http"
"strings"
)

func main() {
// TODO: Replace the url with your Parseable URL
url := "https://<parseable-url>/api/v1/query"
method := "POST"

payload := strings.NewReader(`{
// TODO: Replace the stream name with your log stream name
"query": "select * from <stream-name>",
// TODO: Replace the time range with your desired time range
"startTime": "2022-09-10T08:20:00+00:00",
"endTime": "2022-09-10T08:20:31+00:00"
}
`)

client := &http.Client{}
req, err := http.NewRequest(method, url, payload)

if err != nil {
fmt.Println(err)
return
}

// TODO: Replace the basic auth credentials with your Parseable credentials
req.Header.Add("Authorization", "Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4=")
req.Header.Add("Content-Type", "application/json")

res, err := client.Do(req)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println(err)
return
}
defer res.Body.Close()

body, err := ioutil.ReadAll(res.Body)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println(err)
return
}
fmt.Println(string(body))
}
