I want to extract relevant data of an http thread which has been started with a specific UUID from a log file.
Example log:

2018-09-26 06:34:24,815 INFO [com.xxx.xxx.xxx] (http-threads-threads - 73244) UUID: 111-222-333-444-555

I can already search for the UUID and extract the thread number using grep and BASH_REMATCH. Knowing the thread number I can search for "http-threads-threads - 73244".
Now I want to print all lines with that string and any eventual exception (lines with tabs) after these lines.

I want an output like this:

2018-09-26 06:34:24,815 INFO [com.xxx.xxx.xxx] (http-threads-threads - 73244) UUID: 111-222-333-444-555
2018-09-26 06:34:26,945 ERROR [com.xxx.xxx.xxx] (http-threads-threads - 73244) Some exception message of the right thread

2018-09-26 06:34:27,014 WARN [com.xxx.xxx.xxx] (http-threads-threads - 73244) Some log message of the right thread

I can't use grep -A 3 because the amount of tabbed lines after the match is variable.

Using awk '/http-threads-threads - 73244/print $0; getline/tat/print $0' log.log also prints other tabbed lines.

Using awk '/http-threads-threads - 73244/a=1;print/(2[0-9][0-9][0-9]-[0-1]-[0-9])/a=0' log.log doesn't print the tabbed lines at all.

A perfect solution would also get rid of the extra "grep" and "BASH_REMATCH" before and use the UUID, but I would be totally fine with a solution which takes the thread number as "input".

Does anyone have a solution for this?

The following AWK script matches the UUID and outputs the corresponding lines you’re interested in:

#!/usr/bin/awk -f

/UUID: 111-222-333-444-555/ 
 tid = substr($7, 1, length($7) - 1)


/^[^t].*http-threads-threads/ 
 if (substr($7, 1, length($7) -1) == tid) 
 matched = 1
 print
 else 
 matched = 0
 


/^t/ && matched

The first block matches the UUID and stores the corresponding thread identifier.

The second block matches lines not starting with tabs, containing “http-threads-threads”. If the seventh field matches the thread identifier, the script notes that we’re in a matching block, and prints the current line; otherwise, the script notes that we’re not in a matching block.

The third block matches lines starting with tabs, when we’re in a matching block, and prints them (printing the current line is the default action).
