Using the Lire
Framework

In this part, you'll learn how to leverage the Lire™'s framework for your own log analysis need. The most common use cases are developing a converter for a new log format and developping new reports.

The first chapter Chapter 2, Writing a New DLF Converter explains how to write a converter for a new log format.

The responsibility of the converter is to map the information contained in a log file to the data model of a specific DLF schema. When developping a converter for a log format which doesn't fall in the domain one of the existing DLF schema, you'll need to write a new one. This is the topic of the following chapter Chapter 3, Writing a DLF Schema.

The last chapter of this part Chapter 4, Writing a New Report gives some notes on how to develop new reports.
