Colorizer

A tool for highlighting words in your terminal

Quickstart

1. Install

cargo install colorizer

2. There are built-in profiles, currently only one (nginx) :)

// via pipe
cat access.log | colorizer -p nginx

3. There are built-in regular expressions, you can start using them without config

// via pipe
cat server.log | colorizer --email YELLOW --ipv4 RED --isotime CYAN

// or file as arg
colorizer server.log --email YELLOW --ipv4 RED --isotime CYAN

4. Create or Download settings.json and create one or more profiles, the profile with the name "default" is used if you do not pass the names of the profiles as arguments

5. You can use multiple profiles

cat server.log | colorizer --config settings.json -p prof1 prof2 prof3

6. tail also work

tail -f access.log | colorizer -p nginx

Install

cargo install colorizer
