What is Logtail?
LogTail is a powerful modern OS X application designed for viewing and monitoring both local and remote log files (via SSH) on Linux servers, or any plain text files.
It reads log files and outputs their contents as they change, capable of tracking or "tailing" files in a manner similar to the Unix 'tail' utility (tail -f). LogTail is ideal for monitoring application and system log files that are continuously updated during runtime.
It allows you to set up filters and highlighting rules, which can be used to hide lines containing matching search terms or to color-code lines. This helps you focus on the crucial data within log files!
Additionally, you can:
- Manage and browse remote SSH server hosts
- Bookmark and search remote log files
- Share local log files as email attachments or via instant messages (or through AirDrop, or add them to notes (Share toolbar item))
