Two indispensable Tools

Added two modules to my LAMP server.

First is goaccess

$brew install goaccess

Log parsing for apache monitoring. all the right statistics derived from the main httpd log:

/usr/local/var/log/httpd/access_log

Startup this way with the important log format tag:

$goaccess /usr/local/var/log/httpd/access_log --log-format=COMMON

Second tool – very much like Activity monitor, but in terminal – GLANCES

$brew install glances

Then it is simple startup via:

$glances

Running in different shells makes for informative set of information screens.
