Please package AnonIp, a tool to anonymize IP addresses in log files.
This is a simple pur-Python application without any dependencies.
Description:
Anonip masks the last bits of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses in log files. That way most of the relevant information is preserved, while the IP address does not match a particular individuum anymore.
Depending on your Web server, the log entries may be piped to Anonip directly or via a FIFO (named pipe). Thus the unmasked IP addresses will never be written to any file.
It's also possible to rewrite existing log files.
Anonip can also be uses as a Python module in your own Python application.
All remaining required information can be found in the .spec-file https://bugs.mageia.org/attachment.cgi?id=11168 or the Guix package definition https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?id=582de58c69bd46385196e26434951e1e2d5f32f2.
Background -----------------
This software is used by quite some providers in Europe since anonymizing IP addresses is a GDPR requirement. Thus I want to spread it, so even "small" web server owners can use it easily.
