Support for the Ruby 2.4 series has ended. See here for reference.
AccessLog
provides logging to various files in various formats.
Multiple logs may be written to at the same time:
access_log = [ [$stderr, WEBrick::AccessLog::COMMON_LOG_FORMAT], [$stderr, WEBrick::AccessLog::REFERER_LOG_FORMAT], ] server = WEBrick::HTTPServer.new :AccessLog => access_log
Custom log formats may be defined. WEBrick::AccessLog
provides a subset of the formatting from Apache's mod_log_config httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_log_config.html#formats. See AccessLog::setup_params for a list of supported options

Escapes control characters in data
# File webrick/accesslog.rb, line 151 def escape(data) if data.tainted? data.gsub(/[[:cntrl:]\\]+/) {$&.dump[1...-1]}.untaint else data end end
Formats params
according to format_string
which is described in setup_params.
# File webrick/accesslog.rb, line 123 def format(format_string, params) format_string.gsub(/\%(?:\{(.*?)\})?>?([a-zA-Z%])/){ param, spec = $1, $2 case spec[0] when ?e, ?i, ?n, ?o raise AccessLogError, "parameter is required for \"#{spec}\"" unless param (param = params[spec][param]) ? escape(param) : "-" when ?t params[spec].strftime(param || CLF_TIME_FORMAT) when ?p case param when 'remote' escape(params["i"].peeraddr[1].to_s) else escape(params["p"].to_s) end when ?% "%" else escape(params[spec].to_s) end } end
This format specification is a subset of mod_log_config of Apache:
Remote IP address
Total response size
Given variable in ENV
Response filename
Remote host name
Given request header
Remote logname, always “-”
Request method
Given request attribute from req.attributes
Given response header
Server's request port
The canonical port of the server serving the request or the actual port or the client's actual port. Valid formats are canonical, local or remote.
Request query string
First line of the request
Request status
Time the request was received
Time taken to process the request
Remote user from auth
Unparsed URI
Literal %
