The tui
crate has been archived and ratatui
has taken over.
In order to avoid supporting compatibility for an inactive crate,
the v0.9.x releases are the last to support tui
. In case future bug fixes
are needed, the branch tui_legacy
has been created to track changes to 0.9.x releases.
Starting with v0.10 tui-logger
is ratatui
only.
- Logger implementation for the
log
crate - Logger enable/disable detection via hash table (avoid string compare)
- Hot logger code only copies enabled log messages with timestamp into a circular buffer
- Widgets/move_message() retrieve captured log messages from hot circular buffer
- Lost message detection due to circular buffer
- Log filtering performed on log record target
- Simple Widgets to view logs and configure debuglevel per target
- Logging of enabled logs to file
- Scrollback in log history
- Title of target and log pane can be configured
-
slog
support, providing a Drain to integrate into yourslog
infrastructure -
tracing
support - Allow configuration of target dependent loglevel specifically for file logging
- Avoid duplicating of target, module and filename in every log record
- Simultaneous modification of all targets' display/hot logging loglevel by key command
Smart widget consists of two widgets. Left is the target selector widget and on the right side the logging messages view scrolling up. The target selector widget can be hidden/shown during runtime via key command. The key command to be provided to the TuiLoggerWidget via transition() function.
The target selector widget looks like this:
It controls:
- Capturing of log messages by the logger
- Selection of levels for display in the logging message view
The two columns have the following meaning:
- Code EWIDT: E stands for Error, W for Warn, Info, Debug and Trace.
- Inverted characters (EWIDT) are enabled log levels in the view
- Normal characters show enabled capturing of a log level per target
- If any of EWIDT are not shown, then the respective log level is not captured
- Target of the log events can be defined in the log e.g.
warn!(target: "demo", "Log message");
| KEY | ACTION
|----------|-----------------------------------------------------------|
| h | Toggles target selector widget hidden/visible
| f | Toggle focus on the selected target only
| UP | Select previous target in target selector widget
| DOWN | Select next target in target selector widget
| LEFT | Reduce SHOWN (!) log messages by one level
| RIGHT | Increase SHOWN (!) log messages by one level
| - | Reduce CAPTURED (!) log messages by one level
| | Increase CAPTURED (!) log messages by one level
| PAGEUP | Enter Page Mode and scroll approx. half page up in log history.
| PAGEDOWN | Only in page mode: scroll 10 events down in log history.
| ESCAPE | Exit page mode and go back to scrolling mode
| SPACE | Toggles hiding of targets, which have logfilter set to off
The mapping of key to action has to be done in the application. The respective TuiWidgetEvent has to be provided to TuiWidgetState::transition().
Remark to the page mode: The timestamp of the event at event history's bottom line is used as reference. This means, changing the filters in the EWIDT/focus from the target selector window should work as expected without jumps in the history. The page next/forward advances as per visibility of the events.
#[macro_use]
extern crate log;
//use tui_logger;
fn main() {
// Early initialization of the logger
// Set max_log_level to Trace
tui_logger::init_logger(log::LevelFilter::Trace).unwrap();
// Set default level for unknown targets to Trace
tui_logger::set_default_level(log::LevelFilter::Trace);
// code....
}
For use of the widget please check examples/demo.rs
Run demo using termion:
cargo run --example demo --features termion
Run demo with crossterm:
cargo run --example demo --features crossterm
tui-logger
provides a TuiSlogDrain which implements slog::Drain
and will route all records
it receives to the tui-logger
widget.
Enabled by feature "slog-support"
tui-logger
provides a TuiTracingSubscriberLayer which implements
tracing_subscriber::Layer
and will collect all events
it receives to the tui-logger
widget
Enabled by feature "tracing-support"
#[macro_use]
extern crate log;
//use tui_logger;
use env_logger;
fn main() {
// Early initialization of the logger
let drain = tui_logger::Drain::new();
// instead of tui_logger::init_logger, we use `env_logger`
env_logger::Builder::default()
.format(move |buf, record|
// patch the env-logger entry through our drain to the tui-logger
Ok(drain.log(record))
).init(); // make this the global logger
// code....
