Horrible Solution: How to delete all docker logs 2

 in Docker  tagged delete logs / docker / truncate by

Recently, we needed to delete the logs of a running docker setup. To do so, we used the following horrible solution:

First, we executed docker system info | grep "Docker Root Dir";to get the installation path of docker. It resulted to the following:

Docker Root Dir: /var/lib/docker

Then, we truncated all log files using the following command while executing as root:

truncate -s 0 /var/lib/docker/containers/*/*-json.log;

Bonus

To make the command a onliner, use the following:


sudo sh -c 'truncate -s 0 $(docker system info | grep "Docker Root Dir" | cut -d ":" -f2 | cut -d " " -f2-)/containers/*/*-json.log';

Count how many submissions per score

 in SQL  tagged count / group by / max / order by / sql / truncate by

Recently, we had access to a database that contained the scores of a programming competitions system.
The database contained several contests, each contest contained several challenges and any competitor could make multiple submissions.
We wanted to extract a couple of charts showing

  • how many submissions we had per score and
  • how many submissions we had per score while filtering out the best submission (max score) per contestant per challenge per contest

The following code will return the number of submissions per score per challenge per contest.


SELECT contest_id, challenge_id, TRUNCATE(score, 1), COUNT(*)
FROM submissions
GROUP BY contest_id, challenge_id, TRUNCATE(score, 1)
ORDER BY contest_id, challenge_id, TRUNCATE(score, 1);

The next one will return the number of submissions per score per challenge per contest while filtering out the best submission (max score) per contestant per challenge per contest:


SELECT contest_id, challenge_id, TRUNCATE(max_score, 1), COUNT(*)
FROM
(
  SELECT contest_id, challenge_id, competitor_id, MAX(score) AS max_score
  FROM submissions
  GROUP BY contest_id, challenge_id, competitor_id
) AS max_scores
GROUP BY contest_id, challenge_id, TRUNCATE(max_score, 1)
ORDER BY contest_id, challenge_id, TRUNCATE(max_score, 1);
