## lnav v0.12.2
|
|
|
|
|
2024-04-05 16:25:19 +03:00
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
|
|
* Added the "last-word" line-format field shortening algorithm
|
|
|
|
from @flicus.
|
2024-04-06 07:01:10 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added a `stats.hist` PRQL transform that produces a histogram
|
|
|
|
of values over time.
|
2024-04-07 08:27:00 +03:00
|
|
|
* The preview for the `:open` command will now show a listing
|
|
|
|
of archive contents.
|

|
|
|
|
2024-04-04 20:13:59 +03:00
|
|
|
Bug Fixes:
|
|
|
|
* With the recent xz backdoor shenanigans, it seems like a good
|
|
|
|
time to add some checks for data being hidden by escape codes:
|
|
|
|
- File names with escape sequences are now displayed in quotes
|
|
|
|
with backslash escapes.
|
|
|
|
- Text that has the same foreground and background colors will
|
|
|
|
have the background set to a contrasting color.
|
2024-04-05 08:22:11 +03:00
|
|
|
* Sub-millisecond time values should now be preserved when
|
|
|
|
displaying JSON-lines logs.
|
2024-04-04 20:13:59 +03:00
|
|
|
* A crash during initialization on Apple Silicon and MacOS 12
|
|
|
|
has been fixed.
|
2024-04-07 08:27:00 +03:00
|
|
|
* A crash when previewing non-text files.

## lnav v0.12.1
|
|
|
|
|
2024-03-21 18:47:29 +03:00
|
|
|
Features:
|
2024-03-26 08:34:28 +03:00
|
|
|
* Database queries can now be written in
|
|
|
|
[PRQL](https://prql-lang.org). When executing a query with `;`,
|
|
|
|
if the query starts with `from`, it will be treated as PRQL.
|
|
|
|
The pipeline structure of PRQL queries is more desirable for
|
|
|
|
interactive use since lnav can make better suggestions and
|
|
|
|
show previews of the stages of the pipeline.
|
2024-03-21 18:47:29 +03:00
|
|
|
* Log partitions can automatically be created by defining a log
|
|
|
|
message pattern in a log format. Under a format definition,
|
|
|
|
add an entry into the "partitions" object in a format definition.
|
|
|
|
The "pattern" property specifies the regular expression to match
|
|
|
|
against a line in a file that matches the format. If a match is
|
|
|
|
found, the partition name will be set to the value(s) captured
|
|
|
|
by the regex. To restrict matches to certain files, you can add
|
|
|
|
a "paths" array whose object elements contain a "glob" property
|
|
|
|
that will be matched against file names.
|
|
|
|
|
2024-02-29 09:20:32 +03:00
|
|
|
Interface changes:
|
2024-03-26 08:34:28 +03:00
|
|
|
* When using PRQL in the database query prompt (`;`),
|
|
|
|
the preview pane will show the results for the pipeline
|
|
|
|
stage the cursor is within along with the results of
|
|
|
|
the previous stage (if there is one). The preview
|
|
|
|
works on a limited data set, so the preview results
|
|
|
|
may differ from the final results.
|
2024-02-29 09:20:32 +03:00
|
|
|
* Changed the breadcrumb bar styling to space things out
|
|
|
|
more and make the divisions between items clearer.
|
|
|
|
* The `ESC` key can now be used to exit the files/filters
|
|
|
|
configuration panel instead of `q`. This should make
|
|
|
|
it easier to avoid accidentally exiting lnav.
|
|
|
|
* Added some default help text for the command prompt.
|
2024-03-04 02:27:03 +03:00
|
|
|
* Suggestions are now shown for some commands and can
|
|
|
|
be accepted by pressing the right arrow key. For
|
|
|
|
example, after typing in `:filter-in` the current
|
|
|
|
search term for the view will be suggested (if
|
|
|
|
one is active).
|
2024-03-06 07:32:20 +03:00
|
|
|
* The focused line should be preserved more reliably in
|
|
|
|
the LOG/TEXT views.
|
2024-03-21 18:47:29 +03:00
|
|
|
* In the LOG view, the current partition name (as set
|
|
|
|
with the `:partition-name` command) is shown as the
|
|
|
|
first breadcrumb in the breadcrumb bar. And, when
|
|
|
|
that breadcrumb is selected, you can select another
|
|
|
|
partition to jump to.
|
|
|
|
* The `{` / `}` hotkeys, `:next-section`, and `:prev-section`
|
|
|
|
commands now work in the LOG view and take you to the
|
|
|
|
next/previous partition.
|
2024-03-27 07:49:39 +03:00
|
|
|
* The DB view now defaults to not showing bar charts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Breaking changes:
|
|
|
|
* Many of the lesser used column in the log format tables
|
|
|
|
(e.g. `log_tags`) have been moved to after the columns
|
|
|
|
defined by the format. These columns are usually `NULL`
|
|
|
|
and are a distraction when previewing queries.

## lnav v0.12.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
2023-08-02 20:44:13 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added a Gantt Chart view to visualize operations over time
|
|
|
|
based on the "opid" in log messages. The view shows
|
|
|
|
the operation IDs, a description of the operation captured
|
|
|
|
from log messages, and a bar representing the period of
|
|
|
|
time that the operation was running.
|
2023-07-07 06:05:30 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added the `:sh` command and `-e` option to execute a shell
|
|
|
|
command-line and display its output within **lnav**. The
|
|
|
|
captured output will be displayed in the TEXT view. The
|
|
|
|
lines from stdout and stderr are recorded separately so
|
|
|
|
that the lines from stderr can be shown in the theme's
|
|
|
|
"error" highlight. The time that the lines were received
|
|
|
|
are also recorded internally so that the "time-offset"
|
|
|
|
display (enabled by pressing `Shift` + `T`) can be shown
|
|
|
|
and the "jump to slow-down" hotkeys (`s`/`Shift` + `S`)
|
|
|
|
work. Since the line-by-line timestamps are recorded
|
|
|
|
internally, they will not interfere with timestamps that
|
|
|
|
are in the commands output.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `:cd` command to change **lnav**'s current directory.
|
2023-07-09 20:06:21 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added support for automatically converting files that are
|
2023-07-11 19:54:05 +03:00
|
|
|
in a format not natively supported by **lnav**. The new
|
|
|
|
`converter` section in a log format definition allows you
|
|
|
|
to specify how a file type can be detected and converted.
|
|
|
|
The built-in PCAP support in **lnav** is implemented using
|
|
|
|
this mechanism.
|
2023-07-13 07:30:54 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added a `shell_exec()` SQLite function that executes a
|
|
|
|
command-line with the user's `$SHELL` and returns the
|
|
|
|
output.
|
|
|
|
* Added support for custom URL schemes that are handled by an
|
|
|
|
lnav script. Schemes can be defined under
|
|
|
|
`/tuning/url-schemes`. See the main docs for more details.
|
2023-08-30 20:01:17 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added `docker://` and `podman://` URL schemes that can be
|
|
|
|
used to tail the logs for containers (e.g.
|
|
|
|
`docker://my-container`) or files within a container (e.g.
|
2023-08-30 08:26:00 +03:00
|
|
|
`docker://my-serv/var/log/dpkg.log`). Containers mentioned
|
|
|
|
in a "Compose" configuration file can be tailed by using
|
|
|
|
`compose` as the host name with the path to the configuration
|
|
|
|
file (e.g. `docker://compose/compose.yaml`).
|
2023-07-31 07:17:52 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added an `:annotate` command that can trigger a call-out
|
|
|
|
to a script to analyze a log message and generate an
|
|
|
|
annotation that is attached to the message. The script
|
|
|
|
is executed asynchronously, so it will not block input
|
|
|
|
and the result is saved in the session. Annotations are
|
|
|
|
defined in the `/log/annotations` configuration property.
|
2023-08-11 18:57:11 +03:00
|
|
|
* Timestamps with numeric timezone offsets (or `Z`) are now
|
|
|
|
automatically converted to the local time zone. For
|
|
|
|
example, a timestamp ending in `-03:00` will be treated
|
|
|
|
as three hours behind UTC and then adjusted to the local
|
|
|
|
timezone. This feature can be disabled by setting the
|
|
|
|
`/log/date-time/convert-zoned-to-local` configuration
|
|
|
|
property to `false`. Timestamps without a zone or have
|
|
|
|
a symbolic zone name (e.g. `PDT`) are not converted.
|
2023-07-14 07:56:11 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added the SQLite JSON functions to the online help.
|
2023-07-16 07:50:46 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added `config get` and `config blame` management CLI
|
|
|
|
commands to get the current configuration and the file
|
|
|
|
locations where the configuration options came from.
|
2023-07-07 06:05:30 +03:00
|
|
|
* When piping data into **lnav**'s stdin, the input used to
|
|
|
|
only be written to a single file without any rotation.
|
|
|
|
Now, the input is written to a directory of rotating files.
|
|
|
|
The same is true for the command-lines executed through the
|
2023-07-19 08:14:45 +03:00
|
|
|
new `:sh` command. The piped data can be managed using the
|
|
|
|
new `piper` commands in the management CLI.
|
|
|
|
* The `$LNAV_HOME_DIR` and `$LNAV_WORK_DIR` environment
|
|
|
|
variables are now defined inside **lnav** and refer to
|
|
|
|
the location of the user's configuration directory and
|
|
|
|
the directory where cached data is stored, respectively.
|
2023-08-25 07:10:54 +03:00
|
|
|
* The `<pre>` and `<img>` tags are now recognized in
|
|
|
|
Markdown files.
|
2023-07-28 07:50:12 +03:00
|
|
|
* The `style` attribute in `<span>` tags is now supported.
|
2023-07-28 09:16:40 +03:00
|
|
|
The following CSS properties and values are supported:
|
|
|
|
* `color` and `background-color` with CSS color names
|
|
|
|
* `font-weight` with a value of `bold` or `bolder`
|
|
|
|
* `text-decoration` with `underline`
|
|
|
|
* `border-left` and `border-right` with the `solid`,
|
|
|
|
`dashed` and `dotted` line styles and colors.
|
2023-08-16 02:34:33 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added an `options` column to the `lnav_views` table
|
|
|
|
to allow more control over overlays.
|
2023-08-17 08:13:15 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added a "Dracula" theme as described at:
|
|
|
|
https://draculatheme.com
|
|
|
|
* Added the following styles for themes:
|
|
|
|
- `/ui/theme-defs/<theme_name>/syntax-styles/inline-code`
|
|
|
|
- `/ui/theme-defs/<theme_name>/syntax-styles/type`
|
|
|
|
- `/ui/theme-defs/<theme_name>/syntax-styles/function`
|
|
|
|
- `/ui/theme-defs/<theme_name>/syntax-styles/separators-references-accessors`
|
|
|
|
* Multi-line block comments (i.e. `/* ... */`) and strings
|
|
|
|
are now recognized and styled as appropriate.
|
2023-08-30 20:01:17 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added `error` and `data` columns to the `fstat()`
|
|
|
|
table-valued-function. The `error` column is non-NULL
|
|
|
|
if there is a problem accessing the file. The `data`
|
|
|
|
contains the contents of the file, as such, it is
|
|
|
|
hidden by default.
|
2023-08-30 08:26:00 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added a log format for Redis.
|
|
|
|
* The `:eval` command will now treat its argument(s) as a
|
|
|
|
script, allowing multiple commands to be executed.
|
2023-09-06 07:54:49 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added a `timezone()` SQL function for converting a timestamp
|
|
|
|
to a target timezone.
|
2023-09-06 08:41:06 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added a `:convert-time-to` command that converts the
|
|
|
|
timestamp of the focused log message to the given timezone.
|
2023-09-14 00:58:59 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added the `:set-file-timezone` and `:clear-file-timezone`
|
|
|
|
commands to set the timezone for log messages that don't
|
|
|
|
include a zone in their timestamp.
|
|
|
|
* Added the `options_path` and `options` columns to the
|
|
|
|
`lnav_file` table so you can see what options are applied
|
|
|
|
to a file. Currently, the only option is the default
|
|
|
|
timezone that is set by the `:set-file-timezone` command.
|
|
|
|
* Added the `config file-options` management command that
|
|
|
|
can be used to examine the options that will be applied
|
|
|
|
to a given file.
|
2023-10-02 08:07:10 +03:00
|
|
|
* When viewing a diff, the sections of the diff for each
|
|
|
|
file is recognized and shown in the breadcrumb bar. So,
|
|
|
|
you can see the file the focused line is in. You can
|
|
|
|
also jump to a particular file by focusing on the
|
|
|
|
breadcrumb bar, selecting the crumb, and then selecting
|
|
|
|
the desired file.
|
2023-10-06 08:25:51 +03:00
|
|
|
* Binary files are now displayed as a hex dump with ASCII
|
|
|
|
representation (where applicable).
|
2024-01-26 07:53:01 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added a `log_msg_line()` SQL function that will return the
|
2024-01-05 19:49:27 +03:00
|
|
|
line number of the start of the currently focused
|
|
|
|
message in the log view.
|
2024-01-26 07:53:01 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added a `log_msg_values` column to the `all_logs` SQL
|
|
|
|
table that contains a JSON object with the top 5 values
|
|
|
|
for the fields extracted from the log message.
|
2024-02-17 18:16:14 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added `:next-section` and `:prev-section` commands for
|
|
|
|
moving to the next and previous section of a document.
|
|
|
|
For example, the next section in a man page or JSON
|
|
|
|
array. The default keymap has been changed to bind
|
|
|
|
the curly brace keys to these commands.
|
2024-01-28 20:36:54 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added Nextcloud log format from Adam Monsen.
|
2024-02-07 08:09:51 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added GitHub Event Log format for files from gharchive.org.
|
|
|
|
It makes a good example of a JSON-Lines format.
|
2023-07-19 08:14:45 +03:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Bug Fixes:
|
2023-07-07 06:05:30 +03:00
|
|
|
* Binary data piped into stdin should now be treated the same
|
|
|
|
as if it was in a file that was passed on the command-line.
|
2023-07-16 07:50:46 +03:00
|
|
|
* The `-I` option is now recognized in the management CLI
|
|
|
|
(i.e. when you run **lnav** with the `-m` flag).
|
2023-07-26 06:45:12 +03:00
|
|
|
* Fields in the bro and w3c log formats that were hidden are
|
|
|
|
now saved in the session and restored.
|
2023-08-11 02:08:56 +03:00
|
|
|
* A warning will now be issued if a timestamp in a log format's
|
|
|
|
sample message does not match completely. Warnings in the
|
|
|
|
configuration can be viewed by passing the `-W` flag.
|
2023-08-15 19:52:54 +03:00
|
|
|
* Importing from regex101.com broke due to some changes in the
|
|
|
|
API.
|
2023-08-24 07:52:40 +03:00
|
|
|
* The details overlay for a log message no longer shows keys
|
|
|
|
for unknown JSON properties. These extra fields are now
|
|
|
|
shown with the proper `jget(log_raw_text, '/...')` SQL
|
|
|
|
expression needed to retrieve the value.
|
2023-08-31 08:46:07 +03:00
|
|
|
* Improved text-wrapping when rendering Markdown.
|
2023-07-07 06:05:30 +03:00
|
|
|
|
2023-07-14 07:56:11 +03:00
|
|
|
Interface changes:
|
2023-08-15 05:04:31 +03:00
|
|
|
* The breadcrumb bar hotkey is moving to backtick `` ` ``
|
|
|
|
instead of `ENTER`.
|
2023-07-14 07:56:11 +03:00
|
|
|
* The DB view now uses the "alt-text" theme style to draw
|
|
|
|
alternating rows instead of being hard-coded to bold. The
|
|
|
|
alternation is also now done in groups of two rows instead
|
|
|
|
of only a single row. Numbers are also rendered using the
|
|
|
|
"number" theme style as well.
|
2023-08-01 08:24:47 +03:00
|
|
|
* The log message overlay in the LOG view is now limited
|
2023-08-15 17:28:44 +03:00
|
|
|
2/3rds of the height. You can focus on the overlay panel
|
|
|
|
by pressing `CTRL-]`. The "alt-text" theme style is also
|
|
|
|
used to draw the overlay contents now as well. (The
|
|
|
|
overlay is used to display the parser details, comments,
|
|
|
|
and annotations.)
|
2024-02-17 18:16:14 +03:00
|
|
|
* The `{` and `}` keys have been changed from moving
|
|
|
|
through the "location history" to moving to the previous
|
|
|
|
and next section in a document.
|
2023-08-24 17:05:53 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added indent guidelines when structured data is detected.

|
|
|
Breaking changes:
|
|
|
|
* Removed the `-w` command-line option. This option was
|
|
|
|
useful when stdin was not automatically preserved. Since
|
|
|
|
the data is now stored (and cleaned up) as well as being
|
|
|
|
spread across multiple files, this option doesn't make
|
|
|
|
sense anymore.
|
2024-02-22 05:23:34 +03:00
|
|
|
* The `-t` command-line flag behaves a little differently
|
|
|
|
behind the scenes now. Timestamps will always be
|
|
|
|
recorded for each line piped into lnav. This flag means
|
|
|
|
that the data should be treated as a log file instead of
|
|
|
|
plain text.
|
2023-07-19 08:14:45 +03:00
|
|
|
* Data piped into **lnav** is now stored in the work
|
|
|
|
directory instead of the `stdin-captures` dot-lnav
|
|
|
|
directory.
|
2023-08-24 07:52:40 +03:00
|
|
|
* Changed the "Bunyan" log format name from `bunyan` to
|
|
|
|
`bunyan_log` to be consistent with other format names.
|

## lnav v0.11.2
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
|
|
* A "cursor" mode has been added to the main view that can
|
|
|
|
be toggled by pressing CTRL-X. While in cursor mode, any
|
2023-06-17 07:38:19 +03:00
|
|
|
operations that would normally work on the "top" line will
|
|
|
|
now operate on the focused line instead.
|
2022-12-22 02:37:31 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added CTRL-D and CTRL-U hotkeys to move down/up by half
|
|
|
|
a page.
|
2023-04-30 02:13:42 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added an `auto-width` flag to the elements of the
|
|
|
|
`line-format` array that indicates that the width of the
|
|
|
|
field should automatically be determined by the observed
|
|
|
|
values.
|
2023-06-20 20:33:53 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added bunyan log format from Tobias Gruetzmacher.
|
2023-07-07 06:05:30 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added cloudflare log format from @minusf.
|
2023-06-20 20:33:53 +03:00
|
|
|
* Number fields used in a JSON log format `line-format`
|
|
|
|
array now default to being right-aligned. Also, added
|
|
|
|
`prefix` and `suffix` to `line-format` elements so a
|
|
|
|
string can optionally be prepended/appended if the value
|
|
|
|
is not empty.
|
2023-06-29 15:53:36 +03:00
|
|
|
* JSON log format detection has been improved to not rely
|
|
|
|
on matching the file name. All possible formats are
|
|
|
|
tried and the one with the most available fields for a
|
|
|
|
given `line-format` is used. For example, if the first
|
|
|
|
log message has 8 fields and format A contains 5 of
|
|
|
|
those fields in its `line-format` while format B only
|
|
|
|
contains 2 of those fields in its `line-format`, format
|
|
|
|
A will be used for the file.

|
|
|
|
2023-06-23 09:09:39 +03:00
|
|
|
Changes:
|
|
|
|
* For JSON-lines logs, line-feeds at the end of a value are
|
|
|
|
automatically stripped.
|
|
|
|
|
2023-04-30 02:13:42 +03:00
|
|
|
Bug Fixes:
|
|
|
|
* Hidden values in JSON logs are now hidden by default.
|
2023-06-10 07:13:39 +03:00
|
|
|
* Text with ANSI-escapes is now filtered properly.
|

## lnav v0.11.1
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
|
|
* Additional validation checks for log formats have been
|
|
|
|
added and will result in warnings. Pass `-W` on the
|
|
|
|
command-line to view the warnings. The following new
|
|
|
|
check have been added:
|
|
|
|
- Each regex must have a corresponding sample log message
|
|
|
|
that it matches.
|
|
|
|
- Each sample must be matched by only one regex.
|
|
|
|
* Added built-in support for anonymizing content. The
|
|
|
|
`:write-*` commands now accept an `--anonymize` option
|
|
|
|
and there is an `anonymize()` SQL function. The
|
|
|
|
anonymization process will try to replace identifying
|
|
|
|
information with random data. For example, IPv4 addresses
|
|
|
|
are replaced with addresses in the 10.0.0.0/8 range.
|
|
|
|
(This feature is mainly intended to help with providing
|
|
|
|
information to lnav support that does not have sensitive
|
|
|
|
values.)
|
|
|
|
* Added `parse_url()` and `unparse_url()` SQL functions for
|
|
|
|
parsing URLs into a JSON object and then back again. Note
|
|
|
|
that the implementation relies on libcurl which has some
|
|
|
|
limitations, like not supporting all types of schemes
|
|
|
|
(e.g. `mailto:`).
|
2022-10-03 07:58:10 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added the `subsecond-field` and `subsecond-units` log
|
|
|
|
format properties to allow for specifying a separate
|
|
|
|
field for the sub-second portion of a timestamp.
|
2022-10-01 01:42:07 +03:00
|
|
|
* Added a keymap for Swedish keyboards.
|
2022-09-18 17:41:12 +03:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Breaking changes:
|
|
|
|
* The `regexp_capture()` table-valued-function now returns NULL
|
|
|
|
instead of an empty string for the `capture_name` column if
|
|
|
|
the capture is not named.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
* Reduce the "no patterns have a capture" error to a warning
|
|
|
|
so that it doesn't block lnav from starting up.
|
2022-09-20 11:02:59 +03:00
|
|
|
* Some ANSI escape sequences will now be removed before testing
|
|
|
|
regexes against a log message.
|
2022-09-25 07:26:16 +03:00
|
|
|
* If a line in a JSON-lines log file does not start with a
|
|
|
|
`{`, it will now be shown as-is and will not have the JSON
|
|
|
|
parse error.
|
2022-09-18 17:41:12 +03:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Cost of Doing Business:
|
|
|
|
* Migrated from pcre to pcre2.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## lnav v0.11.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
|
|
* Redesigned the top status area to allow for user-specified
|
|
|
|
messages and added a second line that displays an interactive
|
|
|
|
breadcrumb bar. The top status line now shows the clock and
|
|
|
|
the remaining area displays whatever messages are inserted
|
|
|
|
into the lnav_user_notifications table. The information that
|
|
|
|
was originally on top is now in a second line and organized
|
|
|
|
as breadcrumbs. Pressing `ENTER` will activate the breadcrumb bar
|
|
|
|
and the left/right cursor keys can be used to select a particular
|
|
|
|
crumb while the up/down keys can select a value to switch to.
|
|
|
|
While a crumb is selected, you can also type in some text to do
|
|
|
|
a fuzzy search on the possibilities or, if the crumb represents
|
|
|
|
an array of values, enter the index to jump to.
|
|
|
|
* The pretty-print view will now show breadcrumbs that indicate the
|
|
|
|
location of the top line in the view with the prettified structure.
|
|
|
|
* Markdown files (those with a .md extension) are now rendered in the
|
|
|
|
TEXT view. The breadcrumb bar at the top will also be updated
|
|
|
|
depending on the section of the document that you are in and you
|
|
|
|
can use it to jump to different parts of the doc.
|
|
|
|
* The `:goto` command will now accept anchor links (i.e. `#section-id`)
|
|
|
|
as an argument when the text file being viewed has sections. You
|
|
|
|
can also specify an anchor when opening a file by appending
|
|
|
|
`#<link-name>`. For example, `README.md#screenshot`.
|
|
|
|
* Log message comments are now treated as markdown and rendered
|
|
|
|
accordingly in the overlay. Multi-line comments are now supported
|
|
|
|
as well.
|
|
|
|
* Metadata embedded in files can now be accessed by the
|
|
|
|
`lnav_file_metadata` table. Currently, only the front-matter in
|
|
|
|
Markdown files is supported.
|
|
|
|
* Added an integration with regex101.com to make it easier to edit
|
|
|
|
log message regular expressions. Using the new "management CLI"
|
|
|
|
(activated by the `-m` option), a log format can be created from
|
|
|
|
a regular expression entry on regex101.com and existing patterns
|
|
|
|
can be edited.
|
|
|
|
* In the spectrogram view, the selected value range is now shown by
|
|
|
|
an overlay that includes a summary of the range and the number of
|
|
|
|
values that fall in that range. There is also a detail panel at
|
|
|
|
the bottom that shows the log-messages/DB-rows whose values are in
|
|
|
|
that range. You can then press TAB to focus on the detail view
|
|
|
|
and scroll around.
|
|
|
|
* Add initial support for pcap(3) files using tshark(1).
|
|
|
|
* SQL statement execution can now be canceled by pressing `CTRL+]`
|
|
|
|
(same as canceling out of a prompt).
|
|
|
|
* To make it possible to automate some operations, there is now an
|
|
|
|
`lnav_events` table that is updated when internal events occur
|
|
|
|
within lnav (e.g. opening a file, format is detected). You
|
|
|
|
can then add SQLite `TRIGGER`s to this table that can perform a
|
|
|
|
task by updating other tables.
|
|
|
|
* Tags can automatically be added to messages by defining a pattern
|
|
|
|
in a log format. Under a format definition, add the tag name
|
|
|
|
into the "tags" object in a format definition. The "pattern"
|
|
|
|
property specifies the regular expression to match against a line
|
|
|
|
in a file that matches the format. If a match is found, the tag
|
|
|
|
will be applied to the log message. To restrict matches to
|
|
|
|
certain files, you can add a "paths" array whose object elements
|
|
|
|
contain a "glob" property that will be matched against file names.
|
|
|
|
* Log messages can now be detected automatically via "watch
|
|
|
|
expressions". These are SQL expressions that are executed for
|
|
|
|
each log message. If the expressions evaluates to true, an
|
|
|
|
event is published to the `lnav_events` table that includes the
|
|
|
|
message contents.
|
|
|
|
* Added the `regexp_capture_into_json()` table-valued-function that
|
|
|
|
is similar to `regexp_capture()`, but returns a single row with a
|
|
|
|
JSON value for each match instead of a row for each capture.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `top_meta` column to the lnav_views table that contains
|
|
|
|
metadata related to the top line in the view.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `log_opid` hidden column to all log tables that contains
|
|
|
|
the "operation ID" as specified in the log format.
|
|
|
|
* Moved the `log_format` column from the all_logs table to a hidden
|
|
|
|
column on all tables.
|
|
|
|
* Add format for UniFi gateway.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `glob` property to search tables defined in log formats
|
|
|
|
to constrain searches to log messages from files that have a
|
|
|
|
matching log_path value.
|
|
|
|
* Initial indexing of large files should be faster. Decompression
|
|
|
|
and searching for line-endings are now pipelined, so they happen
|
|
|
|
in a thread that is separate from the regular expression matcher.
|
|
|
|
* Writing to the clipboard now falls back to OSC 52 escape sequence
|
|
|
|
if none of the clipboard commands could be detected. Your
|
|
|
|
terminal software will need to support the sequence and you may
|
|
|
|
need to explicitly enable it in the terminal.
|
|
|
|
* Added the `:export-session-to <path>` command that writes the
|
|
|
|
current session state to a file as a list of commands/SQL
|
|
|
|
statements. This script file can be executed to restore the
|
|
|
|
majority of the current state.
|
|
|
|
* Added the `echoln()` SQL function that behaves similarly to the
|
|
|
|
`:echo` command, writing its first argument to the current
|
|
|
|
output.
|
|
|
|
* Added `encode()` and `decode()` SQL functions for transcoding
|
|
|
|
blobs or text values using one of the following algorithms:
|
|
|
|
base64, hex, or uri.
|
|
|
|
* In regular expressions, capture group names are now semantically
|
|
|
|
highlighted (e.g. in the capture, `(?<name>\w+)`, "name" would
|
|
|
|
have a unique color). Also, operations or previews that use
|
|
|
|
that regular expression will highlight the matched data with
|
|
|
|
the same color.
|
|
|
|
* Added an lnav_views_echo table that is a real SQLite table that
|
|
|
|
you can create TRIGGERs on in order to perform actions when
|
|
|
|
scrolling in a view.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `yaml_to_json()` SQL function that converts a YAML
|
|
|
|
document to the equivalent JSON.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Breaking Changes:
|
|
|
|
* Formats definitions are now checked to ensure that values have a
|
|
|
|
corresponding capture in at least one pattern.
|
|
|
|
* Added a 'language' column to the lnav_view_filters table that
|
|
|
|
specifies the language of the 'pattern' column, either 'regex'
|
|
|
|
or 'sql'.
|
|
|
|
* Timestamps that do not have a day or month are rewritten to a
|
|
|
|
full timestamp like YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.
|
|
|
|
* Removed the summary overlay at the bottom of the log view that
|
|
|
|
displayed things like "Error rate" and the time span. It doesn't
|
|
|
|
seem like anyone used it.
|
|
|
|
* Removed the `log_msg_instance` column from the logline and search
|
|
|
|
tables since it causes problems with performance.
|
|
|
|
* Search tables now search for multiple matches within a message
|
|
|
|
instead of stopping at the first hit. Each additional match is
|
|
|
|
returned as a separate row. A `match_index` column has been
|
|
|
|
added to capture the index of the match within the message.
|
|
|
|
The table regex is also compiled with the "multiline" flag enabled
|
|
|
|
so the meaning of the `^` and `$` metacharacters are changed
|
|
|
|
to match the start/end of a line instead of the start/end of
|
|
|
|
the entire message string.
|
|
|
|
* Search tables defined in formats are now constrained to only
|
|
|
|
match log messages that are in that log format instead of all
|
|
|
|
log messages. As a benefit, the search table now includes
|
|
|
|
the columns that are defined as part of the format.
|
|
|
|
* The lnav_view_filters table will treats the tuple of
|
|
|
|
(view_name, type, language, pattern) as a `UNIQUE` index and
|
|
|
|
will raise a conflict error on an `INSERT`. Use `REPLACE INTO`
|
|
|
|
instead of `INSERT INTO` to ignore conflict error.
|
|
|
|
* The types of SQL values stored as local variables in scripts
|
|
|
|
is now preserved when used as bound variables at a later point
|
|
|
|
in the script.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
* Toggling enabled/disabled filters when there is a SQL expression
|
|
|
|
no longer causes a crash.
|
|
|
|
* Fix a crash related to long lines that are word wrapped.
|
|
|
|
* Multiple SQL statements in a SQL block of a script are now
|
|
|
|
executed instead of just the first one.
|
|
|
|
* In cases where there were many colors on screen, some text would
|
|
|
|
be colored incorrectly.
|
|
|
|
* The pretty-print view now handles ANSI escape sequences.
|
|
|
|
* The "overstrike" convention for doing bold and underline is now
|
|
|
|
supported. (Overstrike is a character followed by a backspace
|
|
|
|
and then the same character for bold or an underscore for
|
|
|
|
underline.)
|
|
|
|
* The `:eval` command now works with searching (using the '/'
|
|
|
|
prefix).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## lnav v0.10.1
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
|
|
* Added `:show-only-this-file` command that hides all files except the
|
|
|
|
one for the top line in the view.
|
|
|
|
* The `:write-raw-to` command now accepts a `--view` flag that specifies
|
|
|
|
the source view for the data to write. For example, to write the
|
|
|
|
results of a SQL query, you would pass `--view=db` to the command.
|
|
|
|
* The commands used to access the clipboard are now configured through
|
|
|
|
the "tuning" section of the configuration.
|
|
|
|
* Added an `lnav_version()` SQL function that returns the current
|
|
|
|
version string.
|
|
|
|
* Added basic support for the logfmt file format. Currently, only files
|
|
|
|
whose lines are entirely logfmt-encoded are supported. The lines
|
|
|
|
must also contain either a field named `time` or `ts` that contains
|
|
|
|
the timestamp.
|
|
|
|
* Added the `logfmt2json()` SQL function to convert a string containing
|
|
|
|
a logfmt-encoded message into a JSON object that can be operated on
|
|
|
|
more easily.
|
|
|
|
* Added the `gzip()` and `gunzip()` SQL functions to compress values
|
|
|
|
into a blob and decompress a blob into a string.
|
|
|
|
Interface changes:
|
|
|
|
* The xclip implementation for accessing the system clipboard now writes
|
|
|
|
to the "clipboard" selection instead of the "primary" selection.
|
|
|
|
* The 'query' bookmark type and `y`/`Y` hotkeys have been removed due to
|
|
|
|
performance issues and the functionality is probably rarely used.
|
|
|
|
Bug Fixes:
|
|
|
|
* The text "send-input" would show up on some terminals instead of
|
|
|
|
ignoring the escape sequence. This control sequence was only
|
|
|
|
intended to be used in the test suite.
|
|
|
|
* Remote file synchronization has been optimized a bit.
|
|
|
|
* Configuration values loaded from the `~/.lnav/configs` directory
|
|
|
|
are now included in the default configuration, so they won't be
|
|
|
|
saved into the `~/.lnav/config.json` user configuration file.
|
|
|
|
* Key handling in the visual filter editor will no longer swallow
|
|
|
|
certain key-presses when editing a filter.
|
|
|
|
* Scrolling performance restored in the SQL view.
|
|
|
|
* The `:redirect-to` command now works with `/dev/clipboard`
|
|
|
|
* The field overlay (opened by pressing 'p') now shows `log_time`
|
|
|
|
for the timestamp field instead of the name defined in the format.
|
|
|
|
* The search term in the bottom status bar will now update properly
|
|
|
|
when switching views.
|
|
|
|
* The "Out-Of-Time-Order Message" overlay will be shown again.
|
|
|
|
* The tab for the "Files" panel will be highlighted in red if there
|
|
|
|
is an issue opening a file.
|
|
|
|
* Overwritten files should be reloaded again.
|
|
|
|
* The `jget()` SQL function now returns numbers with the correct type.
|
|
|
|
* The `json_contains()` SQL function now returns false if the first
|
|
|
|
argument is NULL instead of NULL.
|
|
|
|
* The local copies of remote files are now cleaned up after a couple
|
|
|
|
days of the host not being accessed.
|
|
|
|
* The initial loading and indexing phase has been optimized.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## lnav v0.10.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
|
|
* Files on remote machines can be viewed/tailed if they are accessible
|
|
|
|
via SSH. The syntax for specifying the host and path is similar to
|
|
|
|
scp. For example, to view the files in the /var/log directory on the
|
|
|
|
machine `host1.example.org`:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
|
|
$ lnav user@host1.example.org:/var/log
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that you must be able to log into the machine without any
|
|
|
|
interaction.
|
|
|
|
* Added the `:filter-expr` command to filter log messages based on an SQL
|
|
|
|
expression. This command allows much greater control over filtering.
|
|
|
|
* Added the `:mark-expr` command to mark log messages based on an SQL
|
|
|
|
expression. This command makes it easier to programmatically mark
|
|
|
|
log messages compared to using SQL.
|
|
|
|
* Added support for archive files, like zip, and other compression formats,
|
|
|
|
like xz, when compiled with libarchive. When one of these types of
|
|
|
|
files is detected, they are unpacked into a temporary directory and
|
|
|
|
all the files are loaded into lnav.
|
|
|
|
* Added an `xpath()` table-valued function for extracting values from
|
|
|
|
strings containing XML snippets.
|
|
|
|
* Added the `:prompt` command to allow for more customization of prompts.
|
|
|
|
Combined with a custom keymapping, you can now open a prompt and prefill
|
|
|
|
it with a given value. For example, a key could be bound to the
|
|
|
|
following command to open the command prompt with `:filter-in `
|
|
|
|
already filled in:
|
|
|
|
```lnav
|
|
|
|
:prompt command : 'filter-in '
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Added support for the W3C Extended Log File Format with the name
|
|
|
|
`w3c_log`. Similarly to the bro log format, the header is used to
|
|
|
|
determine the columns in a particular file. However, since the columns
|
|
|
|
can be different between files, the SQL table only has a well-known set
|
|
|
|
of columns and the remainder are accessible through JSON-objects stored
|
|
|
|
in columns like `cs_headers` and `sc_headers`.
|
|
|
|
* Added support for the S3 Access File Format.
|
|
|
|
* To jump to the first search hit above the top line in a view, you can
|
|
|
|
press `CTRL+J` instead of `ENTER` in the search prompt. Pressing `ENTER`
|
|
|
|
will jump to the first hit below the current window.
|
|
|
|
* Filtering, as a whole, can be now disabled/enabled without affecting
|
|
|
|
the state of individual filters. This includes text and time-filters
|
|
|
|
(i.e. `:hide-lines-before`). You can enable/disable filtering by:
|
|
|
|
pressing `f` in the filter editor UI; executing the `:toggle-filtering`
|
|
|
|
command; or by doing an `UPDATE` on the "filtering" column of the
|
|
|
|
`lnav_views` SQLite table.
|
|
|
|
* Themes can now include definitions for text highlights under:
|
|
|
|
`/ui/theme-defs/<theme_name>/highlights`
|
|
|
|
* Added a "grayscale" theme that isn't so colorful.
|
|
|
|
* Added the `humanize_file_size()` SQL function that converts a numeric size
|
|
|
|
to a human-friendly string.
|
|
|
|
* Added the `sparkline()` SQL function that returns a "sparkline" bar made
|
|
|
|
out of unicode characters. It can be used with a single value or as
|
|
|
|
an aggregator.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `log_time_msecs` hidden column to the log tables that returns
|
|
|
|
the timestamp as the number of milliseconds from the epoch.
|
|
|
|
* Added an `lnav_top_file()` SQL function that can be used to get the
|
|
|
|
name of the top line in the top view or NULL if the line did not come
|
|
|
|
from a file.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `mimetype` column to the lnav_file table that returns a guess as
|
|
|
|
to the MIME type of the file contents.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `content` hidden column to the lnav_file table that can be used
|
|
|
|
to read the contents of the file. The contents can then be passed to
|
|
|
|
functions that operate on XML/JSON data, like `xpath()` or `json_tree()`.
|
|
|
|
* Added an `lnav_top_view` SQL VIEW that returns the row for the top view
|
|
|
|
in the lnav_views table.
|
|
|
|
* The `generate_series()` SQLite extension is now included by default.
|
|
|
|
One change from the standard implementation is that both the start and
|
|
|
|
stop are required parameters.
|
|
|
|
* Added the `;.read` SQL command for executing a plain SQL file.
|
|
|
|
* Added the `-N` flag so that lnav will run without opening the default
|
|
|
|
syslog file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Interface Changes:
|
|
|
|
* When copying log lines, the file name and time offset will be included
|
|
|
|
in the copy if they are enabled.
|
|
|
|
* Log messages that cannot be parsed properly will be given an "invalid"
|
|
|
|
log level and the invalid portions colored yellow.
|
|
|
|
* The range_start and range_stop values of the `regexp_capture()` results
|
|
|
|
now start at 1 instead of zero to match with what the other SQL string
|
|
|
|
functions expect.
|
|
|
|
* The `:write-cols-to` command has been renamed to `:write-table-to`.
|
|
|
|
* The DB view will limit the maximum column width to 120 characters.
|
|
|
|
* The `:echo` command now evaluates its message to do variable
|
|
|
|
substitution.
|
|
|
|
* The `:write-raw-to` command has been changed to write the original
|
|
|
|
log file content of marked lines. For example, when viewing a JSON
|
|
|
|
log, the JSON-Line values from the log file will be written to the
|
|
|
|
output file. The `:write-view-to` command has been added to perform
|
|
|
|
the previous work of `:write-raw-to` where the raw content of the view
|
|
|
|
is written to the file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
* Unicode text can now be entered in prompts.
|
|
|
|
* The `replicate()` SQL function would cause a crash if the number of
|
|
|
|
replications was zero.
|
|
|
|
* Many internal improvements.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## lnav v0.9.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
|
|
* Added support for themes and included a few as well: default, eldar,
|
|
|
|
monocai, night-owl, solarized-light, and solarized-dark. The theme
|
|
|
|
can be changed using the `:config` command, like so:
|
|
|
|
```lnav
|
|
|
|
:config /ui/theme night-owl
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Consult the online documentation for defining a new theme at:
|
|
|
|
https://lnav.readthedocs.io/en/latest/config.html#theme-definitions
|
|
|
|
* Added support for custom keymaps and included the following: de, fr,
|
|
|
|
uk, us. The keymap can be changed using the `:config` command, like so:
|
|
|
|
```lnav
|
|
|
|
:config /ui/keymap uk
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Consult the online documentation for defining a new keymap at:
|
|
|
|
https://lnav.readthedocs.io/en/latest/config.html#keymap-definitions
|
|
|
|
* The following JSON-Schemas have been published for the log format and
|
|
|
|
configuration JSON files:
|
|
|
|
- https://lnav.org/schemas/format-v1.schema.json
|
|
|
|
- https://lnav.org/schemas/config-v1.schema.json
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Formats should be updated to reference the schema using the `$schema`
|
|
|
|
property.
|
|
|
|
* Indexing of new data in log files can now be paused by pressing `=`
|
|
|
|
and unpaused by pressing it again. The bottom status bar will display
|
|
|
|
'Paused' in the right corner while paused.
|
|
|
|
* CMake is now a supported way to build.
|
|
|
|
* When viewing data from the standard-input, a symbolic name can be used
|
|
|
|
to preserve session state. The name can be changed using the
|
|
|
|
`|rename-stdin` lnav script or by doing an `UPDATE` to the filepath
|
|
|
|
column of the lnav_file table. For example, to assign the name
|
|
|
|
"journald", the following SQL statement can be executed in lnav:
|
|
|
|
```lnav
|
|
|
|
;UPDATE lnav_file SET filepath='journald' WHERE filepath='stdin'
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* The size of the terminal can be accessed in SQL using the `$LINES` and
|
|
|
|
`$COLS` variables.
|
|
|
|
* The `raise_error(msg)` SQL function has been added to make it easier to
|
|
|
|
raise an error in an lnav script to stop execution and notify the user.
|
|
|
|
* Added the `json_concat()` function to make it easier to append/concatenate
|
|
|
|
values onto arrays.
|
|
|
|
* Added the `:write-jsonlines-to` command that writes the result of a SQL
|
|
|
|
query to a file in the JSON Lines format.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Interface Changes:
|
|
|
|
* Data piped into lnav is no longer dumped to the console after exit.
|
|
|
|
Instead, a file containing the data is left in `.lnav/stdin-captures/`
|
|
|
|
and a message is printed to the console indicating the file name.
|
|
|
|
* In time-offset mode, the deltas for messages before the first mark
|
|
|
|
are now negative instead of relative to the start of the log.
|
|
|
|
* The $XDG_CONFIG_HOME environment variable (or `~/.config` directory) are
|
|
|
|
now respected for storing lnav's configuration. If you have an existing
|
|
|
|
`~/.lnav` directory, that will continue to be used until you move it to
|
|
|
|
`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/lnav` or `~/.config/lnav`.
|
|
|
|
* Removed the `:save-config` command. Changes to the configuration are now
|
|
|
|
immediately saved.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
* Added 'notice' log level.
|
|
|
|
* If a `timestamp-format` is used in an element of a `line-format`, the
|
|
|
|
field name is ignored and a formatted timestamp is always used.
|
|
|
|
* Ignore stdin when it is connected to `/dev/null`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## lnav v0.8.5
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
|
|
* Added a visual filter editor to make it easier to update existing
|
|
|
|
filters. The editor can be opened by pressing `TAB`. Once the editor
|
|
|
|
is opened, you can create/delete, enable/disable, and edit the patterns
|
|
|
|
with hotkeys.
|
|
|
|
* Added an `lnav_view_filters` SQL table that can be used to
|
|
|
|
programmatically manipulate filters.
|
|
|
|
* Added an `lnav_view_filter_stats` SQL table that contains the number of
|
|
|
|
times a given filter matched a line in the view.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `log_filters` column to log tables that can be used to see what
|
|
|
|
filters matched the log message.
|
|
|
|
* A history of locations in a view is now kept so that you can jump back
|
|
|
|
to where you were previously using the `{` and `}` keys. The location
|
|
|
|
history can also be accessed through the `:prev-location` and
|
|
|
|
`:next-location` commands.
|
|
|
|
* The `:write-*` commands will now accept `/dev/clipboard` as a file name
|
|
|
|
that writes to the system clipboard.
|
|
|
|
* The `:write-to` and `:write-raw-to` commands will now print out comments
|
|
|
|
and tags attached to the lines.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `:redirect-to <path>` command to redirect command output to the
|
|
|
|
given file. This command is mostly useful in scripts where one might
|
|
|
|
want to redirect all output from commands like `:echo` and `:write-to -`
|
|
|
|
to a single file.
|
|
|
|
* If a log file format has multiple patterns for matching log messages,
|
|
|
|
each pattern is now tried to match a message in a file. Previously,
|
|
|
|
only one pattern was ever used for an entire file.
|
|
|
|
* Added haproxy log format from Peter Hoffmann.
|
|
|
|
* Added `spooky_hash()` and `group_spooky_hash()` SQL functions to
|
|
|
|
generate a hash of their parameters.
|
|
|
|
* Added `time_offset` to the `lnav_file` table so that the timestamps in
|
|
|
|
a file can be adjusted programmatically.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Interface Changes:
|
|
|
|
* The auto-complete behavior in the prompt has been modified to fall back
|
|
|
|
to a fuzzy search if the prefix search finds no matches. For example,
|
|
|
|
typing in `:fin` and pressing TAB would previously not do anything.
|
|
|
|
Now, the `:fin` will be completed to `:filter-in ` since that is a
|
|
|
|
strong fuzzy match. If there are multiple matches, as would happen
|
|
|
|
with `:dfil`, readline's menu-complete behavior will be engaged and
|
|
|
|
you can press `TAB` cycle through the options.
|
|
|
|
* Added `CTRL+F` to toggle the enabled/disabled state of all filters for the
|
|
|
|
current view.
|
|
|
|
* The `-r` flag is now for recursively loading files. The functionality
|
|
|
|
for loading rotated files is now under the `-R` flag.
|
|
|
|
* The current search term is now shown in the bottom status bar.
|
|
|
|
* Some initial help text is now shown for the search and SQL prompts to
|
|
|
|
refresh the memory.
|
|
|
|
* When entering the `:comment` command for a line with a comment, the
|
|
|
|
command prompt will be filled in with the existing comment to make
|
|
|
|
editing easier.
|
|
|
|
* Hidden fields now show up as a unicode vertical ellipsis (⋮) instead of
|
|
|
|
three-dot ellipsis to save space.
|
|
|
|
* Pressing 7/8 will now move to the previous/next minute.
|
|
|
|
* The `:write-raw-to` command has been changed to write the entire
|
|
|
|
contents of the current view and a `:write-screen-to` command has been
|
|
|
|
added to write only the current screen contents.
|
|
|
|
* Disabled filters are now saved in sessions.
|
|
|
|
* The `:adjust-log-time` command now accepts relative times as input.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
* The `:write-json-to` command will now pass through JSON cells as their
|
|
|
|
JSON values instead of a JSON-encoded string.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## lnav v0.8.4
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
|
|
* Added the `:comment` command that can be used to attach a comment to a
|
|
|
|
log line. The comment will be displayed below the line, like so:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2017-01-01T15:30:00 error: computer is on fire
|
|
|
|
+ This is where it all went wrong
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `:clear-comment` command will remove the attached comment. Comments
|
|
|
|
are searchable with the standard search mechanism and they are available
|
|
|
|
in SQL through the `log_comment` column.
|
|
|
|
* Added the `:tag`, `:untag`, and `:delete-tags` commands that can be used
|
|
|
|
to attach/detach tags on the top log line and delete all instances of
|
|
|
|
a tag. Tags are also searchable and are available in SQL as a JSON
|
|
|
|
array in the `log_tags` column.
|
|
|
|
* Pressing left-arrow while viewing log messages will reveal the source
|
|
|
|
file name for each line and the unique parts of the source path.
|
|
|
|
Pressing again will reveal the full path.
|
|
|
|
* The file name section of the top status line will show only the unique
|
|
|
|
parts of the log file path if there is not enough room to show the full
|
|
|
|
path.
|
|
|
|
* Added the `:hide-unmarked-lines` and `:show-unmarked-lines` commands
|
|
|
|
that hide/show lines based on whether they are bookmarked.
|
|
|
|
* Added the `json_contains()` SQL function to check if a JSON value
|
|
|
|
contains a number of a string.
|
|
|
|
* The relative time parser recognizes "next" at the beginning of the
|
|
|
|
input, for example, "next hour" or "next day". Handy for use in the
|
|
|
|
`:goto` command.
|
|
|
|
* Added a "text-transform" option for formatting JSON log messages. The
|
|
|
|
supported options are: none, uppercase, lowercase, and capitalize.
|
|
|
|
* Added a special `__level__` field name for formatting JSON messages so
|
|
|
|
that the lnav level name can be used instead of the internal value in
|
|
|
|
the JSON object.
|
|
|
|
* Added a log format for journald JSON logs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Interface Changes:
|
|
|
|
* When typing in a search, instead of moving the view to the first match
|
|
|
|
that was found, the first ten matches will be displayed in the preview
|
|
|
|
window.
|
|
|
|
* The pretty-print view maintains highlighting from the log view.
|
|
|
|
* The pretty-print view no longer tries to reverse lookup IP addresses.
|
|
|
|
* The online help for commands and SQL functions now includes a 'See Also'
|
|
|
|
section that lists related commands/functions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
* The HOME key should now work in the command-prompt and move the cursor
|
|
|
|
to the beginning of the line.
|
|
|
|
* The `:delete-filter` command should now tab-complete existing filters.
|
|
|
|
* Milliseconds can now be used in relative times (e.g. 10:00:00.123)
|
|
|
|
* The `J`/`K` hotkeys were not marking lines correctly when the bottom of
|
|
|
|
the view was reached.
|
|
|
|
* The level field in JSON logs should now be recognized by the level
|
|
|
|
patterns in the format.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## lnav v0.8.3
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
|
|
* Support for the Bro Network Security Monitor (https://www.bro.org) log
|
|
|
|
file format.
|
|
|
|
* Added an `fstat()` table-valued function for querying the local
|
|
|
|
filesystem.
|
|
|
|
* Added `readlink()` and `realpath()` SQL functions.
|
|
|
|
* Highlights specified in log formats can now specify the colors to use
|
|
|
|
for the highlighted parts of the log message.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `:quit` command.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `/ui/default-colors` configuration option to specify that the
|
|
|
|
terminal's default background and foreground colors should be used
|
|
|
|
instead of black and white.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Interface Changes:
|
|
|
|
* Pressing delete at a command-prompt will exit the prompt if there is no
|
|
|
|
other input.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
* The help view now includes all the command-help that would pop up as
|
|
|
|
you entered commands and SQL queries.
|
|
|
|
* Hidden fields and lines hidden before/after times are now saved in the
|
|
|
|
current session and restored.
|
|
|
|
* Unicode characters should now be displayed correctly (make sure you
|
|
|
|
have LANG set to a UTF-8 locale).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## lnav v0.8.2
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
|
|
* The timestamp format for JSON log files can be specified with the
|
|
|
|
`timestamp-format` option in the `line-format` array.
|
|
|
|
* Added "min-width", "max-width", "align", and "overflow" options to the
|
|
|
|
"line-format" in format definitions for JSON log files. These options
|
|
|
|
give you more control over how the displayed line looks.
|
|
|
|
* Added a "hidden" option to log format values so that you can hide JSON
|
|
|
|
log fields from being displayed if they are not in the line format.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `rewriter` field to log format value definitions that is a
|
|
|
|
command used to rewrite the field in the pretty-printed version of a
|
|
|
|
log message. For example, the HTTP access log format will rewrite the
|
|
|
|
status code field to include the textual version (e.g. 200 (OK)).
|
|
|
|
* Log message fields can now be hidden using the `:hide-fields` command or
|
|
|
|
by setting the 'hidden' property in the log format. When hidden, the
|
|
|
|
fields will be replaced with a yellow ellipsis when displayed. Hiding
|
|
|
|
large fields that contain extra details can make the log easier to read.
|
|
|
|
The `x` hotkey can be used to quickly toggle whether these fields are
|
|
|
|
displayed or not.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `:mark` command to bookmark the top line in the current view.
|
|
|
|
* Added an `:alt-msg` command that can be used to set the text to be
|
|
|
|
displayed in the bottom right of the command line. This command is
|
|
|
|
mostly intended for use by hotkey maps to set the help text.
|
|
|
|
* In lnav scripts, the first row of a SQL query result will now be turned
|
|
|
|
into local variables that can be referenced in other commands or
|
|
|
|
queries. For example, the following script will print the number one:
|
|
|
|
```lnav
|
|
|
|
;SELECT 1 as foobar
|
|
|
|
:eval :echo ${foobar}
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Added an `lnav_view_stack` SQL table that gives access to the view
|
|
|
|
stack.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `top_time` column to the lnav_views table so that you can get
|
|
|
|
the timestamp for the top line in views that are time-based as well as
|
|
|
|
allowing you to move the view to a given time with an UPDATE statement.
|
|
|
|
* Added a 'search' column to the lnav_views table so that you can perform
|
|
|
|
a text search programmatically.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `regexp_capture(<string>, <pattern>)` table-valued function for
|
|
|
|
getting detailed results from matching a regular expression against a
|
|
|
|
string.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `timediff(<time1>, <time2>)` SQL function for computing the
|
|
|
|
difference between two relative or absolute timestamps.
|
|
|
|
* Log formats can now define a default set of highlights with the
|
|
|
|
"highlights" property.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `|search-for <pattern>` built-in script that can be used to
|
|
|
|
start a search from the command-line.
|
|
|
|
* Log format definitions can now specify the expected log level for a
|
|
|
|
sample line. This check should make it easier to validate the
|
|
|
|
definition.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Interface Changes:
|
|
|
|
* Command and SQL documentation is now displayed in a section at the
|
|
|
|
bottom of the screen when a command or query is being entered. Some
|
|
|
|
commands will also display a preview of the command results. For
|
|
|
|
example, the `:open` command will display the first ten lines of the
|
|
|
|
file to be opened and the `:filter-out` command will highlight text
|
|
|
|
that matches in the current view. The preview pane can be shown/hidden
|
|
|
|
by pressing `CTRL-P`.
|
|
|
|
* The color used for text colored via `:highlight` is now based on the
|
|
|
|
the regex instead of randomly picked so that colors are consistent
|
|
|
|
across invocations.
|
|
|
|
* The "graph" view has been removed since it's functionality has been
|
|
|
|
obsoleted by other features, like `:create-search-table`.
|
|
|
|
* When doing a search, if a hit is found within a second after hitting
|
|
|
|
`<ENTER>`, the view will move to the matched line. The previous behavior
|
|
|
|
was to stay on the current line, which tended to be a surprise to new
|
|
|
|
users.
|
|
|
|
* Pressing `n`/`N` to move through the next/previous search hit will now
|
|
|
|
skip adjacent lines, up to the vertical size of the view. This should
|
|
|
|
make scanning through clusters of hits much faster. Repeatedly
|
|
|
|
pressing these keys within a short time will also accelerate scanning
|
|
|
|
by moving the view at least a full page at a time.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Breaking Changes:
|
|
|
|
* The captured timestamp text in log files must fully match a known format
|
|
|
|
or an error will be reported. The previous behavior was to ignore any
|
|
|
|
text at the end of the line.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
* You can now execute commands from the standard input by using a dash (`-`)
|
|
|
|
with the `-f` command-line argument. Reading commands from a file
|
|
|
|
descriptor should also work, for example, with the following bash
|
|
|
|
syntax:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
|
|
$ lnav -f <(echo :open the-file-to-open)
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Programming language syntax highlighting should now only be applied to
|
|
|
|
source code files instead of everywhere.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## lnav v0.8.1
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
|
|
* Added a spectrogram command and view that displays the values of a
|
|
|
|
numeric field over time. The view works for log message fields or
|
|
|
|
for database result columns.
|
|
|
|
* Log formats can now create SQL views and execute other statements
|
|
|
|
by adding `.sql` files to their format directories. The SQL scripts
|
|
|
|
will be executed on startup.
|
|
|
|
* Added `json_group_object` and `json_group_array` aggregate SQL
|
|
|
|
functions that collects values from a GROUP BY query into a JSON
|
|
|
|
object or array, respectively.
|
|
|
|
* The SQL view will now graph values found in JSON objects/arrays in
|
|
|
|
addition to the regular columns in the result.
|
|
|
|
* Added an `regexp_match(<re>, <str>)` SQL function that can be used to
|
|
|
|
extract values from a string using a regular expression.
|
|
|
|
* Added an `extract(<str>)` SQL function that extracts values using the
|
|
|
|
same data discover/extraction parser used in the `logline` table.
|
|
|
|
* Added a "summary" overlay line to the bottom of the log view that
|
|
|
|
displays how long ago the last message was received, along with the
|
|
|
|
total number of files and the error rate over the past five minutes.
|
|
|
|
* Pressing `V` in the DB view will now check for a column with a
|
|
|
|
timestamp and move to the corresponding time in the log view.
|
|
|
|
* Added `a`/`A` hotkeys to restore a view previously popped with `q`/`Q`.
|
|
|
|
* Added `:hide-lines-before`, `:hide-lines-after`, and
|
|
|
|
`:show-lines-before-and-after` commands so that you can filter out
|
|
|
|
log lines based on time.
|
|
|
|
* Scripts containing lnav commands/queries can now be executed using
|
|
|
|
the pipe (`|`) hotkey. See the documentation for more information.
|
|
|
|
* Added an `:eval` command that can be used to execute a command or
|
|
|
|
query after performing environment variable substitution.
|
|
|
|
* Added an `:echo` command that can be useful for scripts to message
|
|
|
|
the user.
|
|
|
|
* The `log_part` column can now be set with an SQL `UPDATE` statement.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `log_body` hidden column that returns the body of the log
|
|
|
|
message.
|
|
|
|
* Added `:config`, `:reset-config`, and `:save-config` commands to change
|
|
|
|
configuration options, reset to default, and save them for future
|
|
|
|
executions.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `/ui/clock-format` configuration option that controls the time
|
|
|
|
format in the top-left corner.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `/ui/dim-text` configuration option that controls the brightness
|
|
|
|
of text in the UI.
|
|
|
|
* Added support for TAI64 timestamps (http://cr.yp.to/libtai/tai64.html).
|
|
|
|
* Added a safe execution mode. If the `LNAVSECURE` environment variable is
|
|
|
|
set before executing lnav, the following commands are disabled:
|
|
|
|
- `:open`
|
|
|
|
- `:pipe-to`
|
|
|
|
- `:pipe-line-to`
|
|
|
|
- `:write-*-to`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This makes it easier to run lnav with escalated privileges in restricted
|
|
|
|
environments, without the risk of users being able to use the above
|
|
|
|
mentioned commands to gain privileged access.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Interface Changes:
|
|
|
|
* The `o`/`O` hotkeys have been reassigned to navigate through log
|
|
|
|
messages that have a matching "opid" field. The old action of
|
|
|
|
moving forward and backward by 60 minutes can be simulated by
|
|
|
|
using the `:goto` command with a relative time and the `r`/`R`
|
|
|
|
hotkeys.
|
|
|
|
* Log messages with timestamps that pre-date previous log messages will
|
|
|
|
have the timestamp highlighted in yellow and underlined. These out-
|
|
|
|
of-time-order messages will be assigned the time of the previous
|
|
|
|
message for sorting purposes. You can press the 'p' hotkey to examine
|
|
|
|
the 'Received Time' of the message as well as the time parsed from the
|
|
|
|
original message. A `log_actual_time` hidden field has also been
|
|
|
|
added to the SQLite virtual table so you can operate on the original
|
|
|
|
message time from the file.
|
|
|
|
* The `A`/`B` hotkeys for moving forward/backward by 10% line increments
|
|
|
|
have been reassigned to `[` and `]`. The `a` and `A` hotkeys are now
|
|
|
|
used to return to the previously popped view while trying to preserve
|
|
|
|
the time range. For example, after leaving the spectrogram view with
|
|
|
|
'q', you can press 'A' return to the view with the top time in the
|
|
|
|
spectrogram matching the top time in the log view.
|
|
|
|
* The 'Q' hotkey now pops the current view off of the stack while
|
|
|
|
maintaining the top time between views.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
* Issues with tailing JSON logs have been fixed.
|
|
|
|
* The `jget()` SQL function should now work for objects nested in arrays.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## lnav v0.8.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
|
|
* Integration with "papertrailapp.com" for querying and tailing
|
|
|
|
server log and syslog messages. See the Papertrail section in
|
|
|
|
the online help for more details.
|
|
|
|
* Remote files can be opened when lnav is built with libcurl v7.23.0+
|
|
|
|
* SQL queries can now be done on lines that match a regular expression
|
|
|
|
using the `log_search` table or by creating custom tables with the
|
|
|
|
`:create-search-table` command.
|
|
|
|
* Log formats that are "containers" for other log formats, like
|
|
|
|
syslog, are now supported. See the online help for more
|
|
|
|
information.
|
|
|
|
* Formats can be installed from git repositories using the `-i` option.
|
|
|
|
A standard set of extra formats can be installed by doing
|
|
|
|
`lnav -i extra`. (You must have git installed for this to work.)
|
|
|
|
* Added support for 'VMware vSphere Auto Deploy' log format.
|
|
|
|
* Added a 'sudo' log format.
|
|
|
|
* Added hotkeys to move left/right by a smaller increment (H/L or
|
|
|
|
Shift+Left/Shift+Right).
|
|
|
|
* A color-coded bar has been added to the left side to show where
|
|
|
|
messages from one file stop and messages from another file start.
|
|
|
|
* The `-C` option will now try to check any specified log files to
|
|
|
|
make sure the format(s) match all of the lines.
|
|
|
|
* Added an `all_logs` SQLite table that contains the message format
|
|
|
|
extracted from each log line. Also added a `;.msgformat` SQL command
|
|
|
|
that executes a query that returns the counts for each format and the
|
|
|
|
first line where the format was seen.
|
|
|
|
* Added an `lnav_views` SQLite table that can be used to query and
|
|
|
|
change the lnav view state.
|
|
|
|
* When typing in a command, the status bar will display a short
|
|
|
|
summary of the currently entered command.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `:delete-filter` command.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `log_msg_instance` column to the logline and log_search
|
|
|
|
tables to make it easier to join tables that are matching log
|
|
|
|
messages that are ordered.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `timeslice()` function to SQLite so that it is easier to
|
|
|
|
group log messages by time buckets.
|
|
|
|
* The `:goto` command now supports relative time values like
|
|
|
|
`a minute ago`, `an hour later`, and many more.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Interface Changes:
|
|
|
|
* The `r`/`R` hotkeys have been reassigned to navigate through the log
|
|
|
|
messages by the relative time value that was last used with the
|
|
|
|
`:goto` command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
* The pretty-print view should now work for text files.
|
|
|
|
* Nested fields in JSON logs are now supported for levels, bodies, etc...
|
|
|
|
* Tab-completion should work for quoted SQL identifiers.
|
|
|
|
* 'lo-fi' mode key shortcut changed to `CTRL+L`.
|
|
|
|
* 'redraw' shortcut removed. Relegated to just a command.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed lnav hang in pretty-print mode while doing a dns lookup.
|
|
|
|
* The generic log message parser used to extract data has been
|
|
|
|
optimized and should be a bit faster.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## lnav v0.7.3
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
|
|
* Add `:pipe-to` and `:pipe-line-to` commands that pipe the currently
|
|
|
|
marked lines or the current log message to a shell command,
|
|
|
|
respectively.
|
|
|
|
* Added a "pretty-print" view (P hotkey) that tries to reformat log
|
|
|
|
messages so that they are easier to read.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `:redraw` command (CTRL+L hotkey) to redraw the window in
|
|
|
|
case it has been corrupted.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `:relative-goto` command to move the current view relative
|
|
|
|
to its current position.
|
|
|
|
* Experimental support for linking with jemalloc.
|
|
|
|
* The plain text view now supports filtering.
|
|
|
|
* Added `:next-mark` and `:prev-mark` commands to jump to the next or
|
|
|
|
previous bookmarked line (e.g. error, warning, ...)
|
|
|
|
* Added a `:zoom-to` command to change the zoom level of the histogram
|
|
|
|
view.
|
|
|
|
* Log formats can now define their own timestamp formats with the
|
|
|
|
`timestamp-format` field.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
* Autotools scripts overhaul.
|
|
|
|
* Added a configure option to disable linking with libtinfo. The newer
|
|
|
|
versions of ncurses don't require it, however the build silently pulls
|
|
|
|
it in as a dependency, if it is available on the system. This can be
|
|
|
|
explicitly disabled using the `--disable-tinfo` option during configure.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed the configure script behavior to ignore the values specified using
|
|
|
|
the CFLAGS and LDFLAGS environment variables while searching for sqlite3
|
|
|
|
when `--with-sqlite3` switch was specified without the prefix.
|
|
|
|
* The configure script now recognizes libeditline symlink'ed to masquerade
|
|
|
|
as libreadline. This previously used to cause problems at compile time,
|
|
|
|
specially on OS X. If you come across this error, use the
|
|
|
|
`--with-readline=prefix` switch to specify the path to the correct
|
|
|
|
location of libreadline.
|
|
|
|
* The order that log formats are tried against a log file is now
|
|
|
|
automatically determined so that more specific formats are tested
|
|
|
|
before more general ones. The order is determined on startup based on
|
|
|
|
how each format matches each other formats sample lines.
|
|
|
|
* Command files (i.e. those executed via the `-f` flag) now support
|
|
|
|
commands/queries that span more than one line.
|
|
|
|
* Added more log levels: stats, debug2 - debug5.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## lnav v0.7.2
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Added log formats for vdsm, openstack, and the vmkernel.
|
|
|
|
* Added a "lo-fi" mode (L hotkey) that dumps the displayed log lines
|
|
|
|
to the terminal without any decorations. The `:write-to`, `:write-json-to`,
|
|
|
|
and `:write-csv-to` commands will also write their output to the terminal
|
|
|
|
when passed `-` as the file name. This mode can be useful for copying
|
|
|
|
plain text lines to the clipboard.
|
|
|
|
* (OS X) Text search strings are copied to the system's "find" clipboard.
|
|
|
|
Also, when starting a new search, the current value in the "find"
|
|
|
|
clipboard can be tab-completed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## lnav v0.7.1
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
|
|
* Added an `environ` SQL table that reflects lnav's environment
|
|
|
|
variables. The table can be read and written to using SQL
|
|
|
|
`SELECT`, `INSERT`, `UPDATE`, and `DELETE` statements. Setting
|
|
|
|
variables can be a way to use SQL query results in lnav commands.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `jget()` SQLite function that can extract fields from a JSON-
|
|
|
|
encoded value.
|
|
|
|
* Added log formats for the OpenAM identity provider.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `:clear-highlight` command to clear previous calls to the
|
|
|
|
`:highlight` command.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed some performance bugs in indexing JSON log formats. Loading
|
|
|
|
times should be at least five times faster.
|
|
|
|
* Filtering performance should be improved so that enabling/disabling
|
|
|
|
filters should be almost instantaneous.
|
|
|
|
* The `:filter-in`, `:filter-out`, and `:highlight` commands now support
|
|
|
|
tab-completion of text in the current view.
|
|
|
|
* Add a `-i` flag that installs format files in: `~/.lnav/formats/installed`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## lnav v0.7.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
|
|
* Add the '.schema' SQL command to open a view that displays the schema
|
|
|
|
for the internal tables and any attached databases. If lnav was only
|
|
|
|
executed with a SQLite database and no text files, this view will open
|
|
|
|
by default.
|
|
|
|
* The scroll bar now indicates the location of errors/warnings, search
|
|
|
|
hits, and bookmarks.
|
|
|
|
* The xterm title is update to reflect the file name for the top line
|
|
|
|
in the view.
|
|
|
|
* Added a "headless" mode so that you can execute commands and run SQL
|
|
|
|
queries from the command-line without having to do it from the curses
|
|
|
|
UI.
|
|
|
|
* When doing a search or SQL query, any text that is currently being
|
|
|
|
displayed can be tab-completed.
|
|
|
|
* The `-H` option was added so you can view the internal help text.
|
|
|
|
* Added the 'g/G' hotkeys to move to the top/bottom of the file.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `log_mark` column to the log tables that indicates whether or
|
|
|
|
not a log message is bookmarked. The field is writable, so you can
|
|
|
|
bookmark lines using an SQL UPDATE query.
|
|
|
|
* Added syntax-highlighting when editing SQL queries or search regexes.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `:write-json-to` command that writes the result of a SQL query
|
|
|
|
to a JSON-formatted file.
|
|
|
|
* The "elapsed time" column now uses red/green coloring to indicate
|
|
|
|
sharp changes in the message rate.
|
|
|
|
* Added a `:set-min-log-level` command to filter out log messages that
|
|
|
|
are below a given level.
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
* Performance improvements.
|
|
|
|
* Multi-line filtering has been fixed.
|
|
|
|
* A collator has been added to the log_level column in the log tables
|
|
|
|
so that you can write expressions like `log_level > 'warning'`.
|
|
|
|
* The log_time datetime format now matches what is returned by
|
|
|
|
`datetime('now')` so that collating works correctly.
|
|
|
|
* If a search string is not valid PCRE syntax, a search is done for
|
|
|
|
the exact string instead of just returning an error.
|
|
|
|
* Static-linking has been cleaned up.
|
|
|
|
* OpenSSL is no longer a requirement.
|
|
|
|
* Alpha support for Windows/cygwin.

|
|
|
* Environment variables can now be accessed in SQL queries using
|
|
|
|
the syntax: `$VAR_NAME`
|
|
|
|
* An internal log is kept and written out on a crash.
|
|
|
|
* Partition bookmarks are now tracked separately from regular user
|
|
|
|
bookmarks. You can start a partition with the 'partition-name'
|
|
|
|
command and remove it with the 'clear-partition' command.
|
|
|
|
* Improved display of possible matches during tab-completion in the
|
|
|
|
command-prompt. The matches are now shown in a separate view and
|
|
|
|
pressing tab repeatedly will scroll through the view.
|
|
|
|
* The "open" command now does shell word expansion for file names.
|
|
|
|
* More config directory paths have been added: `/etc/lnav`,
|
|
|
|
`$prefix/etc/lnav`, and directories passed on the command-line
|
|
|
|
with `-I`.

|
|
|
|
|
Features:
|

|
|
* Files that are not recognized as containing log messages have been
|
|
|
|
broken out to a separate text files view. You can flip between the

|
|
|
highlighting to be done, you can add that command to the session
|
|
|
|
file.
