Apache web log analyzer

I have been working in this code for a course lab, I supposed to read a log from an Apache server, however, every time I try to run the code I get this error message
rb:96: syntax error, unexpected end, expecting end-of-input

it might be I have too much "end"s or I’m missing one, but I can find it, also if you find something wrong in the code please let me know. I really want to learn Ruby

# Apache2 log analyzer to count unique ips and number of queries

# This script is used to find the unique ips in an apache2 access.log

Your analyze method has a end too many.

I believe the end on line 53 should not be there and that the analyze method should read:

def analyze(file_name)
    # Regex to match a single octet of an IPv4 address
    octet = /\d{,2}|1\d{2}|2[0-4]\d|25[0-5]/
    # Since an IPv4 address is made of four octets we will string them together
    # to match a full IPv4 address
    ip_regex = /^#{octet}\.#{octet}\.#{octet}\.#{octet}/
    # Regex to match an alphanumeric url ending with .html
    url_regex = /[a-zA-Z0-9]+.html/

    # TODO: Read in the file line by line using a loop
    # TODO: Match the various regex (IP Address, URL, Secret URL, and 404 Error)
    # and pass them to the count_hits function to be counted
    File.readlines('/var/log/apache2/access.log').each do |line|
      ip = line.scan(ip_regex).first
      url = line.scan(url_regex).first.to_s
      if url == ["secret.html"]
        secret = true
        secret = url("secret")
        error = line("404")
      end
      if line.include? "404"
        error = true
      end    
      count_hits(ip, url, secret, error)
    end
    print_hits
  end

Sometimes it helps just to align thing properly.


Sidenote: You’ll get another error, seeing as you are missing an end at the very end of the file.

Moreover, this

if __FILE__ == $PROGRAM_NAME
  main
end

is very pythonic and not very idiomatic Ruby. You have nothing that runs when required in this file, so it can safely be required and then other modules can themselves run main if they wish to. (It might be a case of taste)
