Logria Logo

Logria

A powerful CLI tool that puts log aggregation at your fingertips.

tl;dr

Live filtering/parsing of data from other processes
Use shell commands or files as input, save sessions and come back later
Replace regex/filter without killing the process or losing the stream's history
Parse logs using user-defined rules, apply aggregation methods on top

Installation

There are several options to install this app.

Cargo (recommended)

This binary is available on crates.io.

cargo install logria is the best way to install the app for normal use.

Development

See Advanced Installation.

Usage

There are a few ways to invoke Logria:

Directly:
- logria
- Opens to the setup screen
With args:
- logria -e 'tail -f log.txt'
- Opens a process for tail -f log.txt and skips setup
- logria -h will show the help page with all possible options

For more details, see Sample Usage Session.

Key Commands

Key	Command
`:`	command mode
`/`	regex search
`h`	if regex active, toggle highlighting of matches
`s`	swap reading `stderr` and `stdout`
`p`	activate parser
`a`	toggle aggregation mode when parser is active
`z`	deactivate parser
↑	scroll buffer up one line
↓	scroll buffer down one line
→	skip and stick to end of buffer
←	skip and stick to beginning of buffer

Features

Here are some of the ways you can leverage Logria:

Live stream of log data

Interactive, live, editable regex search

regex

Live log message parsing

parser

Live aggregation/statistics tracking

User-defined saved sessions

User-defined saved log parsing methods

See parser docs.

Notes

This is a Rust implementation of my Python proof-of-concept.

When to use Logria

Logria is best leveraged to watch live logs from multiple processes and filter them for events you want to see. My most common use case is watching logs from multiple Linode/EC2 instances via ssh or multiple CloudWatch streams using awslogs.

I also use it to analyze the logs from my Apache web servers that print logs in the common log format.

When to avoid Logria

Logria is not a tool for detailed log analytics. lnav or angle-grinder will both do the job better.
