Feature: highlight string in logs

Open foozmeat opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

It would be cool to be able to specify a highlight string/regex to quickly see log lines that I'm looking for. This is a great feature of multitail. https://www.vanheusden.com/multitail/

Hey @foozmeat, I had a few busy weeks and couldn't get back to Damon. Sorry for the delay on my answer. Have you tried this in the Logs View already? I think it should do pretty much what you describe.

Yes, I'm familiar with the filtering which is good but sometimes I want highlighting instead. Its nice to be notified of a matching line and see it in context at the same time.

Ok. This makes sense. Thank you for the feature request 👍

Hi @foozmeat,

I implemented log highlighting. When you enter the logs view, simply hit h. I'd be happy about your feedback and and further improvement ideas on highlighting if you have any!
