Watch and analyze +your log files from a terminal. + +Many logging tools, like Splunk, provide great features but are +optimized for large-scale deployments. They require installing +and configuring servers before they can be effectively used. There +is still a need for a robust log file analyzer for the terminal. + +Just point lnav to a directory and it will take care of the rest. +File formats are automatically detected and compressed files are +unpacked on the fly. + +Log files are a wealth of information, lnav can help highlight the +parts that are important and filter out the noise. |
