Fritz!box logs analyzer

A set of tools that aim to parse and analyze logs from a Fritz!Box routers.

Currently there is just a single application developed that combines logs from files into a structured (and compressed) database which can be reused for some real analysis, which is only yet to be done.

Obtaining logs

To load the current logs from your fritz!box router you can use a simple python module like fritzconnection. Here's a one-liner for it (on linux):

% python -c "from fritzconnection import FritzConnection; \
             from getpass import getpass; \
             conn = FritzConnection(password=getpass()); \
             logs = conn.call_action('DeviceInfo:1', 'GetDeviceLog'); \
             print(logs['NewDeviceLog'])" > logs.txt

It will ask you for your password (i.e. the one you enter to access the router via web browser) and save all available logs to the 'logs.txt' file.

Parsing the logs

To append a log to a database (or to create a new database) run the following command:

$ fritzbox_logs_analyzer --db-path ~/fritz-box-logs/combined.db logs.db \
                         --logs ~/fritz-box-logs/2017-11-13_20.57.txt \
                         --compression-level 9

Or with cargo run if you are working with the sources:

$ cargo run -- --db-path ~/fritz-box-logs/combined.db logs.db \
               --logs ~/fritz-box-logs/2017-11-13_20.57.txt \
               --compression-level 9
