qsdt calculates the elapsed time between two related log messages.

<H2>SYNOPSIS</H2>
qsdt [-t <regex>] -i <regex> -s <regex> -e <regex> [-v] [<path>]
<A NAME="lbAD"> </A>
<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
qsdt is a simple tool to search two different messages in a log file and calculates the elapsed time between these lines. The two log messages need a common identifier such an unique request id (UNIQUE_ID), a thread id, or a transaction code.
<A NAME="lbAE"> </A>
<H2>OPTIONS</H2>
<DL COMPACT>
<DT>-t <regex> <DD>
Defines a pattern (regular expression) matching the log line's timestamp. The pattern must include two sub-expressions, one matching hours, minutes and seconds the other matching the milliseconds. Default pattern is ([0-9]{2}:[0-9]{2}:[0-9]{2})[.,]([0-9]{3})
<DT>-i <regex> <DD>
Pattern (regular expression) matching the identifier which the two messages have in common. The sub-expression defines the part which needs to be extracted from the matching string. Note: You can also use the start (-s) and end (-e) pattern to define the sub-expression matching this identifier.
<DT>-s <regex> <DD>
Defines the pattern (regular expression or literal string) identifying the first (start) of the two messages.
<DT>-e <regex> <DD>
Defines the pattern (regular expression or literal string) identifying the second (end) of the two messages.
<DT>-v <DD>
Verbose mode.
<DT><path> <DD>
Defines the input file to process. qsdt reads from from standard input if this parameter is omitted.
</DL>
<A NAME="lbAF"> </A>
<H2>EXAMPLE</H2>
Sample command line arguments:
<P>
<BR> -i ' ([a-z0-9]+) [A-Z]+ ' -s 'Received Request' -e 'Received Response'
<P>
<BR> matching those sample log messages:
<BR> 2018-03-12 16:34:08.653 threadid23 INFO Received Request
<BR> 2018-03-13 16:35:09.891 threadid23 DEBUG MessageHandler Received Response
<P>
<A NAME="lbAG"> </A>
<H2>NOTE</H2>
The four patterns (t,i,s,e) are concatenated into two search patterns:
<BR> first (start): [t (HH:MM:SS)(SSS) ].*[i (id) ].*[s ]
<BR> second (end): [t (HH:MM:SS)(SSS) ].*[i (id) ].*[e ]
<P>
And the three sub-expression are used to extract the timestamp and the unique identifier that the start and end message have in common. This means that you could specify the sub-expression for the unique identifier in the start (-s) or end (-e) pattern alternatively, e.g. in case the identifier is at the end of the log line.
