Python flask web app that takes a IIS log file, strips away garbage, and presents a graph of which IP addresses that has the most requests towards the IIS web site.

1. Install Python (latest version of 3.x)
2. Navigate to the root folder of this project (e.g. C:\iis_loganalyse)
3. Create a new virtual environment with venv in the project folder:
   • python -m venv C:\iis_loganalyse\
4. Activate virtual environment
   • .\Scripts\activate
5. Install required packages in your virtual environment
   • pip install -r requirements.txt
6. Navigate to flask_app\ and run python app.py to start the web server
7. The command line output should show which URL to navigate to (default http://localhost:5000)

• In the first version of this web app, the file name of the IIS log file is hardcoded into parse_iislog.py. Feel free to modify this at any time :) Ideally, the user should be able to provide a log file in the browser.

• The number of IP addresses to be displayed in the graph and the table below is hardcoded into the variable number_of_bars in parse_iislog.py. The user should be able to adjust this in the browser.
