thrift-tools is a library and a set of tools to introspect Apache Thrift traffic.
You can install thrift-tools via pip:
$ pip install thrift-toolsOr run it from source (if you have the dependencies installed, see below):
$ git clone ...
$ cd thrift-tools
$ sudo FROM_SOURCE=1 bin/thrift-tool --iface=eth0 --port 9091 dump --show-all --pretty
...thrift-tool can be used in interactive mode to analyze live thrift messages:
$ sudo thrift-tool --iface eth0 --port 9091 dump --show-all --pretty

header: ()
fields: [ ( 'struct',

[ ('string', 1, 'something to do'),
('i32', 3, 0),
( 'struct',
9,
[ ('i32', 3, 2),
('i32', 14, 0),
('i32', 16, 0),
('i32', 18, 25)])])]

header: ()
fields: [ ( 'struct',

[ ('string', 1, 'did something'),

('i32', 7, 11),
('i32', 8, 0),
('i32', 9, 0),
('list', 10, [0]),
...Alternatively, offline pcap files may be introspected:
$ sudo thrift-tool --port 9091 --pcap-file /path/to/myservice.pcap dump
...Note that you still need to set the right port.
If you are using Finagle, try something like:
$ sudo thrift-tool --iface eth0 --port 9091 dump --show-all --pretty --finagle-thrift
...JSON output is available for easy filtering & querying via jq. For instance, you can enumerate all the IPs calling the method 'search' via:
$ sudo thrift-tool --port 3030 dump --unpaired --json | jq 'select(.method == "search" and .type == "call") | .src'
"10.1.18.5:48534"
"10.1.60.2:52008"
"10.1.10.27:49856"
"10.1.23.24:48116"
"10.1.26.7:60462"
"10.1.11.10:41895"
"10.1.15.13:35285"
"10.1.7.17:39759"
"10.1.1.19:35481"
...Gathering per method latency stats is available via the stats command:
$ sudo thrift-tool --port 6666 stats --count 100
method count avg min max p90 p95 p99 p999

$ thrift-tool --helpNote that for servers with high throughput (i.e.: > couple Ks packets per second), it might be hard for thrift-tools to keep up because start of message detection is a bit expensive (and you can only go so fast with Python). For these cases, you are better off saving a pcap file (i.e.: via tcpdump) and then post-processing it, i.e.:
$ tcpdump -nn -t port 3030 -w dump.pcap
$ sudo thrift-tool --port 3030 --pcap-file dump.pcap stats --count 40000

from thrift_tools.message_sniffer import MessageSnifferOptions, MessageSniffer
options = MessageSnifferOptions(
iface='eth0',
port='3636',
ip=None, # include msgs from all IPs
pcap_file=None, # don't read from a pcap file, live sniff
protocol=None, # auto detect protocol
finagle_thrift=False, # apache thrift (not twitter's finagle)
read_values=True, # read the values of each msg/struct
max_queued=20000, # decent sized queue
max_message_size=2000, # 2k messages to keep mem usage frugal
debug=False # don't print parsing errors, etc
)
def printer(timestamp, src, dst, msg):
print '%s %s %s %s' % (timestamp, src, dst, msg)
message_sniffer = MessageSniffer(options, printer)
# loop forever
message_sniffer.join()Of if you want to use a pcap file:
options = MessageSnifferOptions(
iface='eth0',
port='3636',
ip=None,
pcap_file="/tmp/myservice.pcap",
protocol=None,
finagle_thrift=False,
read_values=True,
max_queued=20000,
max_message_size=2000,
debug=False
)
...If you want to filter messages for specific IPs:
options = MessageSnifferOptions(
iface='eth0',
port='3636',
ip=['172.16.24.3', '172.16.24.4'], # ignores everyone else
pcap_file="/tmp/myservice.pcap",
protocol=None,
finagle_thrift=False,
read_values=True,
max_queued=20000,
max_message_size=2000,
debug=False
)
