I was looking into how to parse application log files that contain multiline text (e.g. Java stack traces) into sqlite. I can see that at the moment --lines helps, but falls short when processing multi-line texts.

I wonder if this functionality would be useful for sqlite-utils. A similar approach to Elastic logstash/filebeat can be adopted: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/current/multiline-examples.html

Potential changes:

  • add a --multiline option
  • additional properties for
  • multiline-pattern (regex expression)
  • multiline-negate: true/false
  • multiline-what: previous or next

Or if this is achievable in a different way, please share. Thanks!
