Practical to write code in webapp that can return metadata from
current access log?
I'm considering writing a secondary diagnostics service for my CXF REST app running in Tomcat (TomEE) that can return some information about the number of calls to the main service in a particular time period. Is there an API I can use in Java that will give me access to the current access log information? I know that I could always hack something together with a fully qualified path to the file and manual code to parse it, but it seems like this is something that would have been done before, so perhaps there's an easier to use API for this.

Like this?
https://tomcat.apache.org/presentations.html
See "Monitoring Apache Tomcat with JMX", slides 24-31.
Do you have a single servlet serving these requests? Or do you need
something finer-grained than at the "servlet" or even URL-pattern level?

Hi David,
As they are sophisticated, diagnostic services are usually given by dedicated solution and not ad-hoc development. I known licensed solutions (app dynamics and there should exists other competitors Here is a quora discussion about open source competitors : https://www.quora.com/Application-Performance-Management-Is-there-an-open-source-competitor-to-AppDynamics
As you mention « information about the number of calls to the main service », these informations can also be offered by API management solutions. There’s a number of open source competitors for this orientation.
Kind regards,
Pascal
