Split path and take certain value by its position [2] and insert it into field

[nitzanm (nitzan)]

hi...
I need to extract from a path certain value by position...

example:
let's say I split this following path into array using '\' as split char
E:\OUM82\APP\Logs\UploadManager_20062019.log
I get:
[0]=E:
[1]=OUM82
[2]=APP
[3]=logs
[4]=UploadManager_20062019.log
so,
I'm always want to take whatever in [2]
how do I implement it?

"log" => {
        "offset" => 18109,
          "file" => {
            "path" => "E:\\OUM82\\TI_QA_82\\TI_DS_FILES\\ORACLE_LOGS\\ORACLE_DEMO-ORACLE-OCTIINFA_107_30_05_2019 - Copy.
log"
        }
    },
               "host" => {
                "name" => "OctQa",
                  "os" => {
              "family" => "windows",
              "kernel" => "10.0.14393.2969 (rs1_release.190503-1820)",
               "build" => "14393.2969",
            "platform" => "windows",
                "name" => "Windows Server 2016 Datacenter",
             "version" => "10.0"
        },
            "hostname" => "OctQa",
        "architecture" => "x86_64",
                  "id" => "67d6abee-cd05-4497-a3b8-eaacbf4403dc"
    },
              "input" => {
        "type" => "log"
    },
           "loglevel" => "INFO",
      "sourceMessage" => "[1] ExtractorLogger Octopai.Desktop.Extractors.OracleExtractor SaveMetaDataQueryResult - Done
executing delete on table: TI.SHD_DB_UI_OBJECT_DETAILS for conectionID: 107 . result: Successful"
}

i need to do something like this with ruby?

 filter {
 ruby {
                code => 
                        filename = event['path'].split('/').last
                  
        }

}

please help.

I tried this following grok...
but I still getting _grokparsefailure

  grok {
                  match => { path => "%{GREEDYDATA:pathDriveSign}\\%{GREEDYDATA:RootFolder}\\%{GREEDYDATA:customerFolder}" }
               }

any idea?

here new "stdout"

@nitzanm

how do I implement it?

You cannot do it with mutate+split (which is what I would normally suggest) due to this issue, which affects regexps, single quoted string, and double quoted strings.

It is possible using grok if you enable config.support_escapes on logstash.yml... Believe it or not

grok { match => { "path" => "^(?<pathDriveSign>\w{1}):\\\\(?<RootFolder>[^\\\\]+)\\\\(?<customerFolder>[^\\\\]+)\\\\." } }

will get you

    "RootFolder" => "OUM82",
 "pathDriveSign" => "E",
"customerFolder" => "APP",

Do not ask me to explain why 4 backslashes are required to represent a single backslash.

There is also a sneaky way to do it in ruby. You cannot have a backslash at the end of a string, so we have a string that contains a backslash and extract the backslash from it.

    ruby {
        code => '
            backslash = "\\Z"[0]
            event.set("components", event.get("path").split(backslash))
        '
    }

results in

"components" => [
    [0] "E:",
    [1] "OUM82",
    [2] "APP",
    [3] "Logs",
    [4] "UploadManager_20062019.log"
]
