Hey everyone,
I’m on the hunt for a cool web app that can handle log messages from my Ruby programs. I want something that can catch and show these messages in a nice way.
I’ve been searching all over the place but haven’t found anything that fits the bill. It would be awesome if it worked kind of like how Chainsaw does with log4r, you know?
Has anyone come across something like this? Or maybe you’ve built something similar yourself? I’d love to hear your ideas or suggestions!
Thanks for your help. It would really make my life easier if I could find a tool like this!
have u considered using graylog? it’s pretty neat for web-based logging. You can set it up to receive logs from Ruby apps and view em in a browser. it’s got some cool features like searching and alerts too. might be worth a look if you want something flexible. what specific features are you lookin for in a logging interface?
I’ve had success implementing a custom solution using Sinatra and WebSocket for real-time log streaming. It’s relatively straightforward to set up a lightweight web server that receives log messages from your Ruby applications and displays them in a browser. You can enhance it with features like filtering, searching, and color-coding based on log levels. This approach gives you full control over the interface and functionality, tailored specifically to your needs. While it requires some initial development effort, it’s highly customizable and can be expanded as your requirements evolve.
hey, i’ve used logstash for this kinda thing before. it’s pretty flexible and can handle ruby logs no problem. you can set it up to collect logs from different sources and then view em in kibana which is like a web interface. might be worth checkin out if u haven’t already
