LogFilter

Description

LogFilter is a simple Perl module to filter log files. It reads a keywords file and an exclude file, and then prints lines from the log file that match any of the keywords and do not match any of the exclude phrases.

Usage

Here is a basic usage example:

            

              
              
use LogFilter;
my $filter = LogFilter->new('keywords.txt', 'exclude.txt', '/var/log/syslog');
$filter->filter();
            
          

In this example, keywords.txt is a file with one keyword per line. These are the phrases that we are interested in. exclude.txt is similar, but it contains phrases that we want to exclude from the output. /var/log/syslog is the log file that we want to filter.
