How to Tail Logs¶
You can tail logs in real-time aggregated across all containers using the following command.
gigalixir logs
How to Forward Logs Externally¶
If you want to forward your logs to another service such as Logflare, Timber or PaperTrail, you’ll need to set up a log drain. We support HTTPS and syslog drains. To create a log drain, run
gigalixir drains:add $URL
# e.g. gigalixir drains:add https://api.logflare.app/logs/logplex?api_key=$API_KEY&source=$SOURCE_ID
# e.g. gigalixir drains:add https://user:$TIMBER_API_KEY@logs.timber.io/sources/$TIMBER_SOURCE_ID/frames
# e.g. gigalixir drains:add syslog+tls://logs123.papertrailapp.com:12345
To show all your drains, run
gigalixir drains
To delete a drain, run
gigalixir drains:remove $DRAIN_ID
