# Caddy Log Dashboard
A minimal Flask app that reads your Caddy JSON access log and surfaces useful insights.
## Setup
```
cd C:\path\to\caddy_dashboard
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
## Run
```
python app.py
```
Then open http://127.0.0.1:5000 in your browser.
The app binds to `127.0.0.1` only, so it's not reachable from the network.
## Configuration
By default the app reads `C:\Caddy\logs\log2.json`. To point it elsewhere, set the `CADDY_LOG` environment variable before starting:
```
set CADDY_LOG=C:\path\to\other\log.json
python app.py
```
## What it shows
- Total requests, 403s, 5xx errors, slow requests, auth events, unique IPs
- Status distribution (2xx / 3xx / 4xx / 5xx breakdown)
- 403 trigger classification (which matcher fired: Emby version, iOS client, device ID, native UA, etc.)
- Per-host traffic with hit counts, bytes transferred, and status mix
- Top source IPs
- Emby client versions, client applications, and device names
- Auth service (auth.mattcohen.net) traffic breakdown
- Recent 403 blocks with detail
- Recent 5xx errors
- Slowest requests (>=2s)
## Notes
- The log is re-read on every page load. For a 7MB log this should be fast enough (a second or two). If it gets much bigger, consider switching to the in-memory cached mode.
- There's also `/api/raw/<n>` that returns the N most recent parsed entries as JSON, handy for debugging.
