Stratux

Splunk App to process data from Stratux ADS-B Receiver.

This is not the codebase for the ADS-B receiver Stratux, that can be found here.

This is a work in progress.

Setup

  1. Create an index on your Splunk instance, I called mine “stratux”. If you plan to store and process a lengthy timeframe of data then this should be set to 3-5 GB in size.
  2. Pull your Stratux Receiver logs.
     scp pi@192.168.10.1:/var/log/stratux.log <directory_of_your_inputs.conf_monitor>.
    
  3. Point your file input monitor at your data folder; select “Stratux” as the sourcetype. This can be done directly to indexes.conf.
     [monitor://<your>\<path>\<to logs>\stratux.log]
    
  4. Install the app.

Install

  1. Navigate to $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps
  2. Execute: git clone https://github.com/csyvenky/stratux.git
  3. Restart Splunk: via Splunk Web or any other way you know how. Alternatively, you can use the Ansible Playbook restart_splunk.yml - a quick and dirty restart tool for splunkd.
     ansible-playbook -i hosts restart_splunk.yml --ask-pass
