Getting started

go get github.com/devops-works/slowql

Basic usage

In a nutshell, you can use it as follows:

package main

import (
    "fmt"

    "github.com/devops-works/slowql"
)

func main() {
    // Imagine that fd is an io.Reader of your slow query logs file...

    // Create the parser
    p := slowql.NewParser(slowql.MySQL, fd)

    // Get the next query from the log
    q, err := p.GetNext()
	  if err != nil {
		    panic(err)
	  }

    // Do your stuff, for example:
    fmt.Printf("at %d, %s did the request: %s\n", q.Time, q.User, q.Query)

    fp, err := q.Fingerprint()
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
    fmt.Printf("the query fingerprint is: %s\n", fp)

    srv := p.GetServerMeta()
    fmt.Printf("the SQL server listens to port %d", srv.Port)
}

Performance

Running the example given in cmd/ without any fmt.Printf against a 292MB slow query logs from a MySQL database provides the following output:

parsed 278077 queries in 8.099622786s

which is approx. 34760 queries/second (Intel i5-8250U (8) @ 3.400GHz).

Associated tools

With this package we created some tools:

• slowql-replayer: replay and benchmark queries from a slow query log
• slowql-digest: digest and analyze slow query logs. Similar to pt-query-digest, but faster. 🙃

Notes

Tested databases

Not all kind of slow query logs have been tested yet:

• MySQL
• MariaDB
• Percona-db
• Percona-cluster (pxc)
