Remote log tailing using the HTTP Range header.

js-logtail's Issues

Does not follow symlinks

I really like this tool very much. But the I have one application which places the log-fiel in some other place at I thought to create a symlink to that location and logtail would present it like it would be in the tomcat subfolder.
I obviously make something wrong or the script does not follow symlinks. If I copy the file "data/logdaily.log" there it works fine. As well it seems it is not possible to put there some other absolute path to a file soemwhere else on the same server.

Varnish may hang and not serve file, if the intial range is larger than the file.

Can be fixed by changing:

js-logtail/logtail.js

Line 29 in f90f69a

range = "-" + load.toString();

to

range = "0-" + load.toString();

log-tail script still running if log shown in modal window and the window is closed

Problem is that even if the modal window is closed and even if I used to remove data from closed modal by following script which works for all my modal windows opened by link the script to seems stay active and still invoking ajax to the log file:

	<script type="text/javascript">
		$('.modal').on('hidden.bs.modal', function () {
			  $(this).removeData('bs.modal');

Unable to use path to the log file

Hello,

when using full path to the log file I am getting error 404:

Object Not Found (apps/data/logs/support/glDBHousekeeper.log)

I have tried

var url = "/apps/data/logs/support/glDBHousekeeper.log";
var url = "//apps/data/logs/support/glDBHousekeeper.log";
var url = "\/apps/data/logs/support/glDBHousekeeper.log";

with almost same result. Is it bug or problem between my keyboard and chair?

Thanks, Reddy

Feature request: 'pause' button

Without pause, trying to copy parts from specific lines can be annoying as they keep being pushed down (and also thus de-highlighted) by updates.

More than 1 Log

Is it possible to view more than 1 Log?

Links in logtail.html assume it's the index page for this directory

https://github.com/ukhas/js-logtail/blob/master/logtail.html#L13 should perhaps be ? and ?noreverse.

Request: Add grep/filter option

Many thanks for creating this usefull logviewer!
Please consider adding a input box at the top of the page allowing you to filter the log on a specific keyword

uncaught exception: Unknown AJAX Error (status 0)

Hello,

When trying a dead simple example, the initial load of the file works as expected (and display the content), but the 1st refresh gives the following error:

An error occured :-(.
Reloading may help; no promises.
uncaught exception: Unknown AJAX Error (status 0)

Any idea why ?
Thanks
