PhiLogg: a log workbench in one HTML file
PhiLogg opens line-based logs in a browser tab and provides nested filters, log-pattern grouping, field extraction, and plotting.
- For
- Developers inspecting line-based application logs
- Worth noticing
- Filters form a readable tree, and start/end messages can be paired by thread or captured ID to isolate slow jobs.
Field notes
Logs can be opened in the browser, or saved as a standalone philogg.html file that the page says runs offline without installation or a server. The workflow lets users chain filters, pair start/end messages by thread or captured ID, collapse repeated message shapes into patterns, and extract typed values for tables and plots. The page also offers a Tauri desktop build for Windows, macOS, and Linux, with native parsing and file association described as desktop features.
