@alpemreelmas hey, thanks for feedback! While ELK and Papertrail have great searching mechanisms (powerful full-text search, filtering by properties, etc), it is complex to implement. We cannot make ELK a dependency for this project, nor can we re-implement full-text search in PHP for searching log files - that's just a lot of work that is probably better spent elsewhere. I have thought about possibilities about introducing other storage drivers for logs. For example, at the moment all logs are in the local file system, and that's the only way Log Viewer works. But, in the future it could be possible to push logs to S3 (for long-term storage), or push logs to a database like Postgres (with full-text search capabilities), or even MeiliSearch (light-weight alternative to ELK). But even that is a lot of work. Further discussion and contributions are welcome! 😄 |
