Features:
- Added the ':comment' command that can be used to attach a comment to a
log line. The comment will be displayed below the line, like so:
2017-01-01T15:30:00 error: computer is on fire
+ This is where it all went wrong
The ':clear-comment' command will remove the attached comment. Comments
are searchable with the standard search mechanism and they are available
in SQL through the "log_comment" column. - Added the ':tag', ':untag', and ':delete-tags' commands that can be used
to attach/detach tags on the top log line and delete all instances of
a tag. Tags are also searchable and are available in SQL as a JSON
array in the "log_tags" column. - Pressing left-arrow while viewing log messages will reveal the source
file name for each line and the unique parts of the source path.
Pressing again will reveal the full path. - The file name section of the top status line will show only the unique
parts of the log file path if there is not enough room to show the full
path. - Added the ":hide-unmarked-lines" and ":show-unmarked-lines" commands
that hide/show lines based on whether they are bookmarked. - Added the "json_contains()" SQL function to check if a JSON value
contains a number of a string. - The relative time parser recognizes "next" at the beginning of the
input, for example, "next hour" or "next day". Handy for use in the
":goto" command. - Added a "text-transform" option for formatting JSON log messages. The
supported options are: none, uppercase, lowercase, and capitalize. - Added a special "level" field name for formatting JSON messages so
that the lnav level name can be used instead of the internal value in
the JSON object. - Added a log format for journald JSON logs.
Interface Changes:
- When typing in a search, instead of moving the view to the first match
that was found, the first ten matches will be displayed in the preview
window. - The pretty-print view maintains highlighting from the log view.
- The pretty-print view no longer tries to reverse lookup IP addresses.
- The online help for commands and SQL functions now includes a 'See Also'
section that lists related commands/functions.
Fixes:
- The HOME key should now work in the command-prompt and move the cursor
to the beginning of the line. - The :delete-filter command should now tab-complete existing filters.
- Milliseconds can now be used in relative times (e.g. 10:00:00.123)
- The J/K hotkeys were not marking lines correctly when the bottom of
the view was reached. - The level field in JSON logs should now be recognized by the level
patterns in the format.
