So, using this as a means to document stuff that I like so that I do not forget it later! I find a really cool tool last year called lnav. It’s a logging tool for the command line. A neat thing about it is that you can pipe docker logs through it and get a great, easy to navigate system for parsing the logs….it’s a bit like Papertrail.

So sudo apt install lnav

And once you have it installed, just running lnav loads the local logs. Or sudo docker-compose logs | lnav will pipe the Docker logs through lnav and give you a pretty little stream!
