Logbench

What is this, you might ask? Well, it's an attempt to build a better console.log experience.

This repo is the ingestion server and graphical user interface. If you're looking for how to set up Logbench in your codebase, have a look at one of the bindings:

Getting started

Logbench is not a desktop application or a hosted system. It's a web application that runs completely locally on your machine.

Requirements

1. Homebrew

If you're on a M1 or later Mac, you can install Logbench through Homebrew.

# Install
brew tap albingroen/logbench
brew install logbench

# Start in the background
brew services start logbench

2. Build from source

If you're on a x86_64 Mac, or a Linux or Windows system, the easiest is to build Logbench from source.

# Clone repository
git clone https://github.com/albingroen/logbench.git $HOME/logbench

# Change directory
cd $HOME/logbench

# Install dependencies
bun install --frozen-lockfile

# Run
bun run start

Accessing the GUI

Logbench runs on port 1447 by default. You can of course configure this, but the easiest is just to keep this as preconfigured.

http://localhost:1447
