Log to Table (Laravel & More)

View your Log files in a easy-to-read table, with filters and pagination. Works with Laravel logs out the box, with the ability to add more regex patterns for other .log files.

Commands:

• Log to Table: Find and Open Log
  • Can be ran from anywhere. This command identifies any .log files and lists them, then lets you pick one to open.
• Log to Table: View as Table
  • Can be ran from any .log file. This command will open the file in the table format.

Features

• Find and list your .log files automatically and open them directly in a table.
• Easy to navigate table, with pagination and filters to search on date, severity and message
• Add custom regex to match different log formats, no longer just Laravel!
• ...more to come (make an issue if you have a request!)

A button (and command) to open when you are in a .log file:

A command to search and find all .log files in your Workspace, and open any of them into the table:
