A CLI-style CLEF log parser written in Rust

Wyclef

Wyclef is a lightweight Compact Log Event Format (CLEF) log parser written in Rust, designed to read the CLEF formatted *.jlog files produced by the app - and work on both Windows, Linux and macOS.

Usage

Wyclef is a CLI tool that takes the path to a log file, with CLEF formatted events, as a single argument.

Windows

Build the project and store the resulting binary somewhere on your computer. You can also store it in a folder that is not part of your PATH, open your terminal and then run it by specifying the full path to the program. Example:

C:\Users\username\Downloads\wyclef.exe somefile.log

Optionally, if you want to be able to run the program from anywhere, then store it in a folder that is part of your PATH - or add the folder to your environment variables as explained in this article.

MacOS and Linux

Build the project and store the resulting binary somewhere in your path, e.g. /usr/local/bin. Then run from your terminal:

wyclef somefile.log

You if you want to store the program somewhere else, then you can add it to your .bashrc or .zshrc file by making an alias:

alias wyclef="/usr/local/bin/wyclef"

or to your PATH by adding the following to your .bashrc or .zshrc file:

export PATH="$PATH:/path/to/wyclef"

Then run the program like described above.

Note on Logging levels

The CLEF spec states that the level property can be both strings and numbers. In order to support coloring of the output, Wyclef currently supports the following case-insensitive strings for levels, or the corresponding number value:

String Level	Number Level	Color
Verbose	1	White
Debug	2	Cyan
Information	3	Green
Warning	4	Yellow
Error	5	Red
Fatal	6	Red + Bold
