get complete line from log.txt file

kurtfury

ok here is what i m tring to do .
i have a log of all the players on my server .

log(log.txt) is setup like this :
[2006.03.28 15:30:17] 8ff254ece4e6fc234764f346d4c9f772 "{BLOODLINES}" "65.189.199.46" PBB
[2006.03.28 15:30:18] 3cb8a488c3a6fa40945bd8b602ba1af8 "Hitch123" "69.215.245.26" ACI
[2006.03.28 15:30:18] 0cd7d651358be15a4ff48d76967c34ea "killer_dutch" "60.225.54.20" PBS
[2006.03.28 15:30:18] acd1c95414693448e42053206d6eb83f "killerkostya" "67.189.74.18" PBB

there are over 50 entrys .
i want to use this form :

 <div align="center">Name or GUID Here:</FONT><br>
  <input name="search" type="text" size="15" />
  <input name="submit" type="submit" value="Search" />

to echo a complete line.
the only information that i will be able to look for is the (guid) the 32 number string after the date stamp.

example :
using the log.txt in this post
If i entered this in my search form (8ff254ece4e6fc234764f346d4c9f772).
it would echo that whole line as :[2006.03.28 15:30:17] 8ff254ece4e6fc234764f346d4c9f772 "{BLOODLINES}" "65.189.199.46" PBB

if anyone can help me out i would much appreciate it .

THIS IS WHAT I HAVE SO FAR BUT IT WILL NOT WORK!

<?php

if( isset($_POST["submit"]) && !empty($_POST["submit"]) ){

 if(isset($_POST["search_string"]) && !empty($_POST["search_string"]) ) {

   $form_str = $_POST["search_string"];

   $file_contents = file_get_contents('log.txt');

   $file_contents_str = explode("\n", $file_contents);


   for($i=1; $i<count($file_contents_str);$i++) {

 if($file_contents_str[$i] == $form_str) {

   //  echo $file_contents_str[$i]; 
 echo $file_contents; 

 }

   }

 }
 else {

   echo "<b>Please enter a guid.</b><br><br>";

 }

}

?>

<form name="myform" method="POST" action="<? echo 'test.php'?>">
Search String : <input type="text" name="search_string" value="<?=isset($_POST['search_string'])?$_POST['search_string']:''?>"/>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Find guide then print whole line">
</form>

Like always, There's More Than One Way To Do It. What's best is often controversial.

Have you considered using a regular expression to parse each log file GUID and match it to the search input field?

On a match the entire line is available for output.

kurtfury

I have had success echoing the guid (32 numbers) .
but i can not seem to get the complete line to echo .

bradgrafelman

$keyword = $_POST['search_string'];

$file = file('log.txt');

foreach($file as $line)
     if(strpos($line, $keyword) !== FALSE)
          echo $line;

Note that this is case-sensitive. If you want to make it case-insensitive, use [man]strtoupper/man on $keyword for the second parameter of the [man]strpos/man function.

What am i doing wrong ?

~~MY CODE~~

<?php

$keyword = $_POST['search_string']; 

$file = fopen('log.txt', "r"); 
$i = explode(" ", $keyword);

          echo $line;





 else {

   echo "<b>Please enter a guid.</b><br><br>";

 }



?>

<form name="myform" method="POST" action="<? echo 'test.php'?>">
Search String : <input type="text" name="search_string" value="<?=isset($_POST['search_string'])?$_POST['search_string']:''?>">

</form>
</body>
</html>

bradgrafelman

$file = fopen('log.txt', "r");

[man]fopen[/man] is not the function I used, since I wanted each line in an array. I used [man]file/man.

$file = file('log.txt', "r"); 

foreach($file as $line)
     if(strpos($line, $keyword) !== FALSE) {
          $found[] = $line;
     }

if(!isset($found)) {
	echo 'Please enter a GUID.';
} else {
	foreach($found as $line) {
		echo $line . "<br>\n";
		// if you want to use explode() and parse the data, this would be the place to do it.
	}
}

Also note that using strpos() on the entire line isn't just checking for the keyword in the GUID, but also in the other columns as well. If you only want to search in the GUID, you'll have to use explode() as you had in your code snippet inside the foreach() statement.

I changed to : $file = file('log.txt');

Still not working ?

bradgrafelman

Works fine for me - copied and pasted your code.

http://brad.njoe.com/kurtfury/test.php

kurtfury

this is crazy ? works fine on you link , but mine will not work?
http://www.tombstonesquad.com/myscript/test12.php

can you post your code in full so i can see what i have messed up ?

bradgrafelman

Even better, I'll attach it. But... it's the same code you posted. I copied and pasted...

I dont know ? why would it not work on mine ?
all other php functions have always worked fine ?

could it be my version of php ?
what version you using ?

bradgrafelman

Did you try uploading that file from my .zip onto your server and testing it?

I'm using the (latest, I think?) version - PHP 4.4.2 with Zend.

Though... this script doesn't use ANY advanced function at all. In fact, I'd venture a guess as to say that the functions used in this small script haven't been touched by a major revision in quite some time.

kurtfury

ya i uploaded it here:
See if it works for you . http://65.191.218.107:85/clan/myscript/my.php
also could you post your log.txt

im using php V. 5.2

perhaps some function im using is out dated ?

kurtfury

weird it was just a issue with my php version the newer php 5.2 will not except that code , havent figured out why yet.

But thank you for all your help .

lol all this time working on this little script to find that my php is pos .

lol thanks for the help

kurtfury

installed 4.2 works great!

bradgrafelman

Interesting issue. Maybe line endings were screwed up? I haven't the slightest clue.
