A framework for processing web server log files

==== lars

lars is a small Python_ framework for working with httpd logs (from a variety of common servers like Apache, nginx, and IIS). The primary purpose is to provide a set of conversions to ease loading such logs into relational databases, but numerous other possibilities can be realized with a little imagination. Which is to say: lars is not a web log analyzer. However, it is a toolkit that makes it quite easy to construct your own analyzer.
