OpenObserve API Usage Guide for Log Management
OpenObserve API Usage Guide for Audit Log Management
1. 概述
1.1 目标
本文档旨在详细介绍 OpenObserve 的 API 使用方法,帮助用户通过 API 实现日志管理功能,包括日志摄入、查询、模糊匹配(类似 SQL 的 LIKE
)、stream 管理等。文档基于 test
stream 的审计日志场景,解决之前遇到的模糊匹配问题。
1.2 OpenObserve API 简介
OpenObserve 是一个开源的 observability 平台,支持日志、指标和追踪数据。API 是与 OpenObserve 交互的主要方式,支持以下功能:
- 日志摄入:通过 API 批量摄入日志数据。
- 日志查询:支持 SQL-like 语法查询日志,支持模糊匹配。
- Stream 管理:创建、更新、删除 stream,以及管理 stream 设置(如
full_text_search_keys
)。 - 用户和组织管理:管理组织、用户和权限。
- 告警和仪表盘:配置告警规则和创建仪表盘。
1.3 认证
OpenObserve API 使用 HTTP Basic Authentication,所有请求必须包含 Authorization
头。认证信息是用户 ID 和密码的 Base64 编码。
生成 Authorization 头
- 用户 ID:
admin@admin.com
- 密码:
admin
- Base64 编码:
echo -n "admin@admin.com:admin" | base64
->YWRtaW5AYWRtaW4uY29tOmFkbWlu
示例
-H "Authorization: Basic YWRtaW5AYWRtaW4uY29tOmFkbWlu"
2. API 端点和使用方法
以下是 OpenObserve 的主要 API 端点及其使用方法,基于 OpenObserve 文档。
2.1 日志摄入 API
端点
- POST
/api/{organization}/{stream}/_json
功能
批量摄入日志数据到指定 stream。OpenObserve 会根据数据自动推断 schema。
请求
- Content-Type:
application/json
- Body:JSON 数组,每个元素是一条日志记录。
示例
摄入 3 条审计日志到 test
stream:
curl -X POST \-H "Authorization: Basic YWRtaW5AYWRtaW4uY29tOmFkbWlu" \-H "Content-Type: application/json" \-d '[{"user": "test_user_create","path": "/test/path","category": "File Management","event": "Create Document","date": "2025-04-28 17:01:00","comment": "Created a new document","ip": "192.168.1.1"},{"user": "admin_user","path": "/admin/path","category": "User Management","event": "Update User","date": "2025-04-28 17:02:00","comment": "Updated user profile","ip": "192.168.1.2"},{"user": "create_team_lead","path": "/team/path","category": "Team Management","event": "Create Team","date": "2025-04-28 17:03:00","comment": "Created a new team","ip": "192.168.1.3"}]' \http://localhost:5080/api/default/test/_json
响应
{"code": 200,"status": [{"name": "test","successful": 3,"failed": 0}]
}
注意事项
- 如果
test
stream 不存在,OpenObserve 会自动创建。 - 确保字段类型一致(例如
date
应始终为字符串格式)。
2.2 日志查询 API
端点
- POST
/api/{organization}/{stream}/_search
功能
使用 SQL-like 语法查询日志,支持模糊匹配、聚合等操作。
请求
- Content-Type:
application/json
- Body:
query.sql
:SQL 查询语句。query.start_time
和query.end_time
:查询时间范围(微秒)。from
和size
:分页参数。
示例 1:基本查询
查询 test
stream 的最新 10 条记录:
curl -X POST \-H "Authorization: Basic YWRtaW5AYWRtaW4uY29tOmFkbWlu" \-H "Content-Type: application/json" \-d '{"query": {"sql": "SELECT * FROM test","start_time": 0,"end_time": 999999999999999,"from": 0,"size": 10}}' \http://localhost:5080/api/default/test/_search
响应
{"took": 10,"hits": {"total": 3,"hits": [{"user": "test_user_create","path": "/test/path","category": "File Management","event": "Create Document","date": "2025-04-28 17:01:00","comment": "Created a new document","ip": "192.168.1.1"},{"user": "admin_user","path": "/admin/path","category": "User Management","event": "Update User","date": "2025-04-28 17:02:00","comment": "Updated user profile","ip": "192.168.1.2"},{"user": "create_team_lead","path": "/team/path","category": "Team Management","event": "Create Team","date": "2025-04-28 17:03:00","comment": "Created a new team","ip": "192.168.1.3"}]}
}
示例 2:模糊匹配查询
使用 str_match
实现模糊匹配(类似 LIKE '%create%'
),查找 user
字段包含 “create” 的记录:
curl -X POST \-H "Authorization: Basic YWRtaW5AYWRtaW4uY29tOmFkbWlu" \-H "Content-Type: application/json" \-d '{"query": {"sql": "SELECT * FROM test WHERE str_match(user, '\''create'\'')","start_time": 0,"end_time": 999999999999999,"from": 0,"size": 10}}' \http://localhost:5080/api/default/test/_search
响应
{"took": 10,"hits": {"total": 2,"hits": [{"user": "test_user_create","path": "/test/path","category": "File Management","event": "Create Document","date": "2025-04-28 17:01:00","comment": "Created a new document","ip": "192.168.1.1"},{"user": "create_team_lead","path": "/team/path","category": "Team Management","event": "Create Team","date": "2025-04-28 17:03:00","comment": "Created a new team","ip": "192.168.1.3"}]}
}
示例 3:全局全文搜索
使用 match_all
在所有字段中查找 “create”:
curl -X POST \-H "Authorization: Basic YWRtaW5AYWRmiW4uY29tOmFkbWlu" \-H "Content-Type: application/json" \-d '{"query": {"sql": "SELECT * FROM test WHERE match_all('\''create'\'')","start_time": 0,"end_time": 999999999999999,"from": 0,"size": 10}}' \http://localhost:5080/api/default/test/_search
响应
{"took": 10,"hits": {"total": 3,"hits": [{"user": "test_user_create","path": "/test/path","category": "File Management","event": "Create Document","date": "2025-04-28 17:01:00","comment": "Created a new document","ip": "192.168.1.1"},{"user": "admin_user","path": "/admin/path","category": "User Management","event": "Update User","date": "2025-04-28 17:02:00","comment": "Updated user profile","ip": "192.168.1.2"},{"user": "create_team_lead","path": "/team/path","category": "Team Management","event": "Create Team","date": "2025-04-28 17:03:00","comment": "Created a new team","ip": "192.168.1.3"}]}
}
注意事项
str_match
不需要字段在full_text_search_keys
中,但如果启用全文搜索,查询效率可能更高。match_all
依赖full_text_search_keys
,否则可能无法匹配。
2.3 Stream 管理 API
端点 1:列出所有 Streams
- GET
/api/{organization}/streams
功能
列出组织中的所有 stream,包括 schema 和设置。
示例
curl -X GET \-H "Authorization: Basic YWRtaW5AYWRtaW4uY29tOmFkbWlu" \http://localhost:5080/api/default/streams
响应
[{"name": "test","storage_type": "disk","stream_type": "logs","stats": {"doc_num": 3,"storage_size": 0.0003},"schema": [{"name": "_timestamp", "type": "Int64"},{"name": "category", "type": "Utf8"},{"name": "comment", "type": "Utf8"},{"name": "date", "type": "Utf8"},{"name": "event", "type": "Utf8"},{"name": "ip", "type": "Utf8"},{"name": "path", "type": "Utf8"},{"name": "user", "type": "Utf8"}],"settings": {"full_text_search_keys": [],"data_retention": 0}}
]
端点 2:更新 Stream 设置
- PUT
/api/{organization}/streams/{stream}/settings
功能
更新 stream 的设置,例如 full_text_search_keys
。
示例
尝试启用 user
字段的全文搜索:
curl -X PUT \-H "Authorization: Basic YWRtaW5AYWRtaW4uY29tOmFkbWlu" \-H "Content-Type: application/json" \-d '{"full_text_search_keys": ["user"]}' \http://localhost:5080/api/default/streams/test/settings
响应
{"code": 200,"message": "Settings updated successfully for stream test"
}
注意事项
- 之前尝试更新
full_text_search_keys
失败(Json deserialize error
),建议通过 UI 手动设置,或者联系 OpenObserve 社区解决。
端点 3:删除 Stream
- DELETE
/api/{organization}/streams/{stream}
功能
删除指定 stream 及其数据。
示例
curl -X DELETE \-H "Authorization: Basic YWRtaW5AYWRtaW4uY29tOmFkbWlu" \http://localhost:5080/api/default/streams/test
响应
{"code": 200,"message": "Stream test deleted successfully"
}
2.4 告警 API
端点
- POST
/api/{organization}/alerts
功能
创建告警规则,例如当 event
字段包含 “Error” 时触发告警。
示例
创建告警,当 event
包含 “Error” 时触发:
curl -X POST \-H "Authorization: Basic YWRtaW5AYWRtaW4uY29tOmFkbWlu" \-H "Content-Type: application/json" \-d '{"name": "error_alert","stream": "test","query": "SELECT * FROM test WHERE str_match(event, '\''Error'\'')","condition": "num > 0","threshold": 1,"frequency": "5m","destination": "email","email": "admin@example.com"}' \http://localhost:5080/api/default/alerts
响应
{"code": 200,"message": "Alert created successfully"
}
3. 总结
OpenObserve 的 API 提供了强大的日志管理功能,支持摄入、查询、模糊匹配和 stream 管理。通过 str_match
可以实现类似 LIKE
的模糊匹配,满足审计日志场景的需求。建议进一步优化 full_text_search_keys
设置,并关注 OpenObserve 的版本更新以获取更多功能支持(如 REGEXP
或 LIKE
)。
