# vlogsgenerator
Logs generator for [VictoriaLogs](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/).
## How to build vlogsgenerator?
Run `make vlogsgenerator` from the repository root. This builds `bin/vlogsgenerator` binary.
## How run vlogsgenerator?
`vlogsgenerator` generates logs in [JSON line format](https://jsonlines.org/) suitable for the ingestion
via [`/insert/jsonline` endpoint at VictoriaLogs](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/data-ingestion/#json-stream-api).
By default it writes the generated logs into `stdout`. For example, the following command writes generated logs to `stdout`:
```
bin/vlogsgenerator
```
It is possible to redirect the generated logs to file. For example, the following command writes the generated logs to `logs.json` file:
```
bin/vlogsgenerator > logs.json
```
The generated logs at `logs.json` file can be inspected with the following command:
```
head logs.json | jq .
```
Below is an example output:
```json

The `run_id` field uniquely identifies every `vlogsgenerator` invocation.
### How to write logs to VictoriaLogs?
The generated logs can be written directly to VictoriaLogs by passing the address of [`/insert/jsonline` endpoint](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/data-ingestion/#json-stream-api)
to `-addr` command-line flag. For example, the following command writes the generated logs to VictoriaLogs running at `localhost`:
```
bin/vlogsgenerator -addr=http://localhost:9428/insert/jsonline
```
### Configuration
`vlogsgenerator` accepts various command-line flags, which can be used for configuring the number and the shape of the generated logs.
These flags can be inspected by running `vlogsgenerator -help`. Below are the most interesting flags:
* `-start` - starting timestamp for generating logs. Logs are evenly generated on the [`-start` ... `-end`] interval.
* `-end` - ending timestamp for generating logs. Logs are evenly generated on the [`-start` ... `-end`] interval.
* `-activeStreams` - the number of active [log streams](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/keyconcepts/#stream-fields) to generate.
* `-logsPerStream` - the number of log entries to generate per each log stream. Log entries are evenly distributed on the [`-start` ... `-end`] interval.
The total number of generated logs can be calculated as `-activeStreams` * `-logsPerStream`.
For example, the following command generates `1_000_000` log entries on the time range `[2024-01-01 - 2024-02-01]` across `100`
[log streams](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/keyconcepts/#stream-fields), where every logs stream contains `10_000` log entries,
and writes them to `http://localhost:9428/insert/jsonline`:
```
bin/vlogsgenerator \
-start=2024-01-01 -end=2024-02-01 \
-activeStreams=100 \
-logsPerStream=10_000 \
-addr=http://localhost:9428/insert/jsonline
```
### Churn rate
It is possible to generate churn rate for active [log streams](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/keyconcepts/#stream-fields)
by specifying `-totalStreams` command-line flag bigger than `-activeStreams`. For example, the following command generates
logs for `1000` total streams, while the number of active streams equals to `100`. This means that at every time there are logs for `100` streams,
but these streams change over the given [`-start` ... `-end`] time range, so the total number of streams on the given time range becomes `1000`:
```
bin/vlogsgenerator \
-start=2024-01-01 -end=2024-02-01 \
-activeStreams=100 \
-totalStreams=1_000 \
-logsPerStream=10_000 \
-addr=http://localhost:9428/insert/jsonline
```
In this case the total number of generated logs equals to `-totalStreams` * `-logsPerStream` = `10_000_000`.
### Benchmark tuning
By default `vlogsgenerator` generates and writes logs by a single worker. This may limit the maximum data ingestion rate during benchmarks.
The number of workers can be changed via `-workers` command-line flag. For example, the following command generates and writes logs with `16` workers:
```
bin/vlogsgenerator \
-start=2024-01-01 -end=2024-02-01 \
-activeStreams=100 \
-logsPerStream=10_000 \
-addr=http://localhost:9428/insert/jsonline \
-workers=16
```
### Output statistics
Every 10 seconds `vlogsgenerator` writes statistics about the generated logs into `stderr`. The frequency of the generated statistics can be adjusted via `-statInterval` command-line flag.
For example, the following command writes statistics every 2 seconds:
```
bin/vlogsgenerator \
-start=2024-01-01 -end=2024-02-01 \
-activeStreams=100 \
-logsPerStream=10_000 \
-addr=http://localhost:9428/insert/jsonline \
-statInterval=2s
```
