Fourtrack

A gem for massive, parallel recording of streaming event logs for later replay. You know when you need one.

Usage

To record all of your SQL:

recorder = Fourtrack::Recorder.new(output_path: Rails.root.join('log/sql.jsonlines.gz'), flush_after: 1024)
ActiveSupport::Notifications.subscribe('sql.active_record') do |_, started, finished, id, payload|
  recorder << JSON.dump(payload)
end

and to replay later:

File.open(Rails.root.join('log/sql.jsonlines.gz')) do |f|
  player = Fourtrack::Player.new(f)
  player.each_line do |line|
    puts JSON.load(line)
  end
end
