Description

The Logfile Navigator is a log file viewer for the terminal. Given a set of files/directories, lnav will:

  • decompress as needed;
  • detect their format;
  • merge the files by time into a single view;
  • tail the files, follow renames, find new files in directories;
  • build an index of errors and warnings;
  • pretty-print JSON-lines.

Then, in the lnav TUI, you can:

  • jump quickly to the previous/next error (press e/E);
  • search using regular expressions (press /);
  • highlight text with a regular expression (:highlight command);
  • filter messages using regular expressions or SQLite expressions;
  • pretty-print structured text (press P);
  • view a histogram of messages over time (press i);
  • analyze messages using SQLite (press ;)
