The program takes a log as an argument (webserver.log) and outputs a list of webpages with the most page views and unique views (same ip address), which are sorted in descending order.
Project is created with:
- Ruby version: 2.6.6
- Visual Studio Code version: 1.58.2
- Windows OS: Windows_NT x64 10.0.19043
To run this project, download and install Ruby from RubyInstaller (https://rubyinstaller.org/downloads/)
The Gemfile has been populated with the relevant gems (rubocop, rspec, and pry)
To install the gems run the following in the terminal:
bundle install
rspec --init
To test the program, in the terminal, navigate to the project directory and run:
rspec spec
In the terminal, navigate to the project directory lib folder and run (webserver.log is included in the repository)
ruby lib/parser.rb webserver.log
The result should be:
- Further tests should be implemented. RSpec is relatively new to me and hence less time was available writing tests for the program. Improvements could be made around TDD.
- One Rubocop offence remains outstanding, which relates to the '/log_parser.spec.rb' file having too many lines [27/25] (see below). If I had more time, I would have addressed the final rubocop offence.
