Persistent Log Display
I was wondering if we can allow the logs on screen to persist unless explicitly told to clear it up. If, during analysis, someone accidentally refreshes the page, everything is gone as of now!
Can you suggest a good way to load a configurable number of lines from the file (something like tail -n 1000) whenever the web page is refreshed or, opened up for the first time?
Everything else displayed in real time works for me.
+1 on that! I know the main feature of log.io is log aggregation, but for the time being lack of a history is why I'm still not using it. Most of the time I miss aggregation is when tracking down a specific error which is a mess if the logs are distributed. I may try to add this feature in the near future if I get the time for it. I'll open a PR if I do.
Just a note: A simple local storage mechanism (save+read+delete) might be the solution with the smallest footprint without turning log.io to logstash.
