Log4Tailer Description

A multicolored Python based tailer for log4J logs Log4Tailer aims to provide a different approach to traditional log tailers. Most people use tail -F to tail the logs these days. When debugging enterprise class applications you cannot just follow (in many situations) what is going on unless you go to the log, less it and check if something was wrong, or just Ctrl-C tail program and scroll back. Human eye is not capable of distinguishing or grabbing a line out of thousands when that information is showed incredibly fast in the screen. By providing colors, the human eye will discern and quickly identify specific levels or lines. Here are some key features of "Log4Tailer": · Multitailing capability. It can tail multiple logs at a time · Colors for every level: warn, info, debug, error and fatal · Emphasize multiple targets (log traces) given regular expressions · Follow log upon truncation by default · User defined colors for each level · Silent (daemonized) mode · Throttling mode. Slow down the information being printed in the terminal · Inactivity log monitoring · mail notification · Pause Modes freezes output for a limited period of time depending on level found. · Analytics. Makes a report of each level found in logs when finished. Requirements: · Python What's New in This Release: · Added additional level: Critical · Fixed tail last n lines and documented · Fixed tail when log was empty it crashed · Fixed date in emailaction as specified in RFC 2822 · Added logging in debug · Added remote tailing over SSH (SSH tailing) · Updated documentation
