The Logfile Navigator, lnav for short, is an advanced log file viewer for the small-scale.
A log file viewer for the terminal. Merge, tail, search, filter, and query log files with ease. No server. No setup. Still featureful.
🌀 A log file highlighter.
tailspin works by reading through a log file line by line, running a series of regexes against each line. The regexes recognize patterns you expect to find in a logfile, like dates, numbers, severity keywords and more.
tailspin does not make any assumptions on the format or position of the items it wants to highlight. For this reason, it requires no configuration and the highlighting will work consistently across different logfiles.
