• ht: Headless Terminal

  As others have kinda alluded to, it could be useful for testing TUI applications. I develop a logfile viewer for the terminal (https://lnav.org) and have a similar application[1] for testing, but it's a bit flaky. It produces/checks snapshots like [2]. I think the problems I run into are more around different versions of ncurses producing slightly different outputs. [1] - - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Ask HN: Interesting TUIs (text user interfaces), maybe forgotten ones?

  The Logfile Navigator (https://lnav.org) is a log file viewer/merger/tailer for the terminal. It has some advanced UX features, like showing previews of operations and displaying context sensitive help. For example, the preview for filtering out logs by regex is to highlight the lines that will be hidden in red. This can make crafting the right regex a bit easier since the preview updates as you type. lnav... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

• Angle-grinder: Slice and dice logs on the command line

  See https://lnav.org for a powerful mini-ETL CLI power tool; it embeds SQLite, supports ~every format, has great UX and easily handles a few million rows at a time. - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• Toolong: Terminal application to view, tail, merge, and search log files

  The code base seems like a good reference as a small Python project. My fav option in this class of apps: https://lnav.org/ It lets you use journalctl with pipes as requested here: https://github.com/Textualize/toolong/issues/4. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Logdy.dev – web based logs viewer UI for local development environment

  For local development, I cannot recommend lnav[1] enough. Discovering this tool was a game changer in my day to day life. Adding comments, filtering in/out, prettify and analyse distribution is hard to live without now. I don't think a browser tool would fit in my workflow. I need to pipe the output to the tool.

• InfluxDB CTO: Why We Moved from Go to Rust

  Not sure I follow since there are very competitive tools written in Go such as https://victoriametrics.com for an example in this space. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Show HN: Homelab Monitoring Setup with Grafana

  I've found VictoriaMetrics all-in-one binary to be perfect size for home at the very least for metrics gathering. Supports Prometheus querying and few other formats for ingesting so any knowledge bout "how to get data into prometheus" applies pretty much 1:1 + their own vmagent is pretty advanced. Not related to company in any way, just a happy user. https://victoriametrics.com/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Sizing Thanos for large Prometheus installation

  I am not part of the company in any way but please take a look at https://victoriametrics.com/. They are not very popular in the US but the product is easier to manage and more scalable than any other open source Prometheus replacements. High chances you wont even need scale-out design for your load. Source: about 1 year ago
