最近，在对公司容器云的日志方案进行设计的时候，发现主流的ELK或者EFK比较重，再加上现阶段对于ES复杂的搜索功能很多都用不上最终选择了Grafana开源的Loki日志系统，下面介绍下Loki的背景。
背景和动机
当我们的容器云运行的应用或者某个节点出现问题了，解决思路应该如下：
我们的监控使用的是基于Prometheus体系进行改造的，Prometheus中比较重要的是Metric和Alert，Metric是来说明当前或者历史达到了某个值，Alert设置Metric达到某个特定的基数触发了告警，但是这些信息明显是不够的。我们都知道，Kubernetes的基本单位是Pod，Pod把日志输出到stdout和stderr，平时有什么问题我们通常在界面或者通过命令查看相关的日志，举个例子：当我们的某个Pod的内存变得很大，触发了我们的Alert，这个时候管理员，去页面查询确认是哪个Pod有问题，然后要确认Pod内存变大的原因，我们还需要去查询Pod的日志，如果没有日志系统，那么我们就需要到页面或者使用命令进行查询了：
如果，这个时候应用突然挂了，这个时候我们就无法查到相关的日志了，所以需要引入日志系统，统一收集日志，而使用ELK的话，就需要在Kibana和Grafana之间切换，影响用户体验。所以 ，loki的第一目的就是最小化度量和日志的切换成本，有助于减少异常事件的响应时间和提高用户的体验。
ELK存在的问题
现有的很多日志采集的方案都是采用全文检索对日志进行索引（如ELK方案），优点是功能丰富，允许复杂的操作。但是，这些方案往往规模复杂，资源占用高，操作苦难。很多功能往往用不上，大多数查询只关注一定时间范围和一些简单的参数（如host、service等），使用这些解决方案就有点杀鸡用牛刀的感觉了。
因此，Loki的第二个目的是，在查询语言的易操作性和复杂性之间可以达到一个权衡。
成本
全文检索的方案也带来成本问题，简单的说就是全文搜索（如ES）的倒排索引的切分和共享的成本较高。后来出现了其他不同的设计方案如：OKlog，采用最终一致的、基于网格的分布策略。这两个设计决策提供了大量的成本降低和非常简单的操作，但是查询不够方便。因此，Loki的第三个目的是，提高一个更具成本效益的解决方案。
架构
整体架构
Loki的架构如下：
不难看出，Loki的架构非常简单，使用了和Prometheus一样的标签来作为索引，也就是说，你通过这些标签既可以查询日志的内容也可以查询到监控的数据，不但减少了两种查询之间的切换成本，也极大地降低了日志索引的存储。Loki将使用与Prometheus相同的服务发现和标签重新标记库，编写了pormtail，在Kubernetes中promtail以DaemonSet方式运行在每个节点中，通过Kubernetes API等到日志的正确元数据，并将它们发送到Loki。下面是日志的存储架构：
读写
日志数据的写主要依托的是Distributor和Ingester两个组件，整体的流程如下：
Distributor
一旦promtail收集日志并将其发送给loki，Distributor就是第一个接收日志的组件。由于日志的写入量可能很大，所以不能在它们传入时将它们写入数据库。这会毁掉数据库。我们需要批处理和压缩数据。
Loki通过构建压缩数据块来实现这一点，方法是在日志进入时对其进行gzip操作，组件ingester是一个有状态的组件，负责构建和刷新chunck，当chunk达到一定的数量或者时间后，刷新到存储中去。每个流的日志对应一个ingester，当日志到达Distributor后，根据元数据和hash算法计算出应该到哪个ingester上面。
此外，为了冗余和弹性，我们将其复制n（默认情况下为3）次。
Ingester
Ingester接收到日志并开始构建chunk：
基本上就是将日志进行压缩并附加到chunk上面。一旦chunk“填满”（数据达到一定数量或者过了一定期限），ingester将其刷新到数据库。我们对块和索引使用单独的数据库，因为它们存储的数据类型不同。
刷新一个chunk之后，ingester然后创建一个新的空chunk并将新条目添加到该chunk中。
Querier
读取就非常简单了，由Querier负责给定一个时间范围和标签选择器，Querier查看索引以确定哪些块匹配，并通过greps将结果显示出来。它还从Ingester获取尚未刷新的最新数据。
对于每个查询，一个查询器将为您显示所有相关日志。实现了查询并行化，提供分布式grep，使即使是大型查询也是足够的。
可扩展性
Loki的索引存储可以是cassandra/bigtable/dynamodb，而chuncks可以是各种对象存储，Querier和Distributor都是无状态的组件。对于ingester他虽然是有状态的但是，当新的节点加入或者减少，整节点间的chunk会重新分配，已适应新的散列环。而Loki底层存储的实现Cortex已经 在实际的生产中投入使用多年了。有了这句话，我可以放心的在环境中实验一把了。
部署
Loki的安装非常简单。
创建namespace
oc new-project loki
权限设置
oc adm policy add-scc-to-user anyuid -z default -n loki
oc adm policy add-cluster-role-to-user cluster-admin system:serviceaccount:loki:default

语法
Loki提供了HTTP接口，我们这里就不详解了，大家可以看：https://github.com/grafana/loki/blob/master/docs/api.md
我们这里说下查询的接口如何使用。
第一步，获取当前Loki的元数据类型：
curl http://192.168.25.30:30972/api/prom/label
{
"values": \["alertmanager", "app", "component", "container_name", "controller\_revision\_hash", "deployment", "deploymentconfig", "docker_registry", "draft", "filename", "instance", "job", "logging_infra", "metrics_infra", "name", "namespace", "openshift\_io\_component", "pod\_template\_generation", "pod\_template\_hash", "project", "projectname", "prometheus", "provider", "release", "router", "servicename", "statefulset\_kubernetes\_io\_pod\_name", "stream", "tekton\_dev\_pipeline", "tekton\_dev\_pipelineRun", "tekton\_dev\_pipelineTask", "tekton\_dev\_task", "tekton\_dev\_taskRun", "type", "webconsole"\]
}
第二步，获取某个元数据类型的值：
curl http://192.168.25.30:30972/api/prom/label/namespace/values
{"values":\["cicd","default","gitlab","grafanaserver","jenkins","jx-staging","kube-system","loki","mysql-exporter","new2","openshift-console","openshift-infra","openshift-logging","openshift-monitoring","openshift-node","openshift-sdn","openshift-web-console","tekton-pipelines","test111"\]}
第三步，根据label进行查询，例如：
http://192.168.25.30:30972/api/prom/query?direction=BACKWARD&limit=1000®exp=&query={namespace="cicd"}&start=1567644457221000000&end=1567730857221000000&refId=A
参数解析：
- query：一种查询语法详细见下面章节，{name=~“mysql.+”} or {namespace=“cicd”} |= “error”表示查询，namespace为CI/CD的日志中，有error字样的信息。
- limit：返回日志的数量
- start：开始时间，Unix时间表示方法 默认为，一小时前时间
- end：结束时间，默认为当前时间
- direction：forward或者backward，指定limit时候有用，默认为 backward
- regexp：对结果进行regex过滤
LogQL语法
选择器
对于查询表达式的标签部分，将放在{}中，多个标签表达式用逗号分隔：
{app="mysql",name="mysql-backup"}
支持的符号有：
- =：完全相同。
- !=：不平等。
- =~：正则表达式匹配。
- !~：不要正则表达式匹配。
过滤表达式
编写日志流选择器后，您可以通过编写搜索表达式进一步过滤结果。搜索表达式可以文本或正则表达式。
如：
- {job=“mysql”} |= “error”
- {name=“kafka”} |~ “tsdb-ops.*io:2003”
- {instance=~“kafka-[23]”,name=“kafka”} != kafka.server:type=ReplicaManager
支持多个过滤：
- {job=“mysql”} |= “error” != “timeout”
目前支持的操作符：
- |= line包含字符串。
- != line不包含字符串。
- |~ line匹配正则表达式。
- !~ line与正则表达式不匹配。
表达式遵循https://github.com/google/re2/wiki/Syntax语法。
