24 alternatives to Hue Logs – A Minimal Log Monitoring Tool
Hey Hackers, I was building multiple projects lately, and integrating logging was way too much for me. Managing self hosted ELK stack, or using existing log monitoring services (running their agent was consuming hell of resources on my tiny servers). It took me a day to code my own logging server, and client for python projects (serving as python packages - pypi), named it HueLogs. Sharing with you all, please feel free to contribute if you like. I might be adding a npm package for javascript client if I get chance to code tomorrow. Few features too add: - 30 min, last day logs etc. -…

superlog▲497Hey HN, we’re Nico and Arseniy, co-founders of Superlog (https://superlog.sh). We're building a self-installing, self healing observability tool meant not to be opened. It has a wizard that daily sets up proper logging and an agent that investigates errors and opens PRs. Super short demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFhU9Mk247M. In our earlier startups, we tried Sentry, Datadog, Grafana, Dash0, and nothing was good enough. Proper telemetry and alerting still requires a ton of manual setup. We struggled with adding good logs, so debugging was tough, especially as…

Hello everyone, there are many log services available and this is my attempt at a better one. Most online logging tools feature convoluted UIs, arbitrary mandatory fields, questionable AI/insights, complex pricing, etc. I hope my application fixes most of these issues. It also has some nice features, such as automatic Geo IP checks and public dashboards. Although I've created lots of software, this is my first open source application (MIT license), the tutorial for selfhosting is hopefully sufficient! Most of my development career has been with C#, NodeJS and PHP. For this project I've…

Hey hn! I'm one of the co-founders of highlight.io, an open source monitoring tool. Today we're sharing a ClickHouse-based logging solution we've been working on. We wanted to showcase how we built it and share how you could try it out to give feedback. Since we started working on highlight.io, we've been hyper-focused on "cohesion", or ensuring that when you install your monitoring stack, all of the resources in that stack (user interactions, requests, traces, logs, etc.) are connected in a consumable way. We've written up more about our philosophy on this here [1]. We started building…

Hello I'm Jack, I was previously a Site Reliability Engineer and i've been working on monitro.dev which makes log monitoring simple for individuals or small teams. It allows you to easily forward any logs to multiple channels such as Slack, Discord & Telegram. The events are also viewable though the admin dashboard and are easily filterable. Currently there is only an NPM package with javascript / typescript support but i have plans to expand this to other languages such as Python, Rust etc. The package has many options, one of them is forwarding any uncaught exception and as an event…

Hey HN! I'm excited to share Statusnook - a status page and monitoring tool. I built Statusnook for my own projects, but I soon began incorporating bits of feedback from friends & colleagues. My goal was to create a tool with a solid essential feature set, and to make it easy to self-host. I welcome any feedback or suggestions.

I've just released rust-loguru, a logging library for Rust that aims to combine intuitive API design (inspired by Go/Python's Loguru) with Rust's performance characteristics. Some highlights: - Consistently outperforms the standard log crate by 50-80% in benchmarks. - Multiple log levels and an extensible handler system -File rotation with better performance than log4rs and other alternatives - Error handling utilities and context helpers I built this because I wanted a logger that was both ergonomic to use and high-performance. The benchmarks comparing it to slog, log, and tracing are…

I've always dreamed about a project like that when looking at status boards at other companies. We finally had the time to do our own. Here are some photos: http://www.flickr.com/photos/robert_olejnik/sets/72157633736087905/ The stack: Django, mustache.js, Chart.js, Bootstrap and custom Supybot plugin. Maybe will be inspiration for someone else ;-) Do you guys have similar status boards? Cheers, Robert.

Hey HN, I often check raw logs - out/error.log, nginx's access.log, etc, but they're hard to read So I built beautiful parser & formatter with filtering and syntax highlighting PrettyLog supports many common log formats out of the box: - nginx access logs - Apache error logs - Syslog (RFC 5424) - Logfmt (Heroku/Go style) - Docker logs - standard/node.js logs - Spring Boot logs - AWS VPC Flow logs - Kubernetes kubectl get events If you need something specific, you can use custom regex parser. Processing is 100% local. Your data never leaves the browser. I hope you find it as…

Hey HN! We're Ben and Izak, the cofounders of Vigilant. Vigilant is a lightweight tool for managing structured logs. It lets you centralize your logs, search them, and create alerts. We used Cloudwatch for logs on our last product, and it was quite painful. Even basic searches felt tedious. We’ve used dedicated observability tools at past jobs, but most of them have a steep learning curve and require widespread integration (and some still feel clunky). With Vigilant, we're focused on making logs feel fast and simple. We operate at the application layer with an sdk. We're trying a unique…

There are many log alerting systems on the market. The best known is probably Datadog. There’s also Logtail, Papertrail, Splunk, Logstash and others. These are well put together products with a host of great features, such as excellent UIs, sophisticated live searching via web interfaces and sometimes query languages and alerting. They require various levels of installation and they have costs, either through volume-based tiered systems or monthly payments. For a bootstrapped business, this can be problematic, for instance when a surge of logs - indicating a possible important problem that…

Eurker▲16Hi HN, I built an uptime monitoring tool similar to other services, but more lightweight, easier to set up, and focused on developer flexibility. It includes all the essential features — keyword assertions, custom HTTP methods, retries, alerts via SMS/Email/Slack/Webhooks — with a clean JSON config system for advanced setups. I originally made it last month to learn more about Firebase Cloud Functions and Cloud Run, and to build something real for my portfolio. It turned out to be genuinely useful, so I’ve decided to share it. Would love your feedback – especially from devs…

It's the Easter holidays here so I decided to finish one of the pet-projects that I had on my work machine. https://github.com/bdryanovski/logchanges This small package is designed to help me generate a changelog for my other projects and keep it up to date when it comes to update and handle it. The JSON part is for the cases when I want to integrate it into Single Page Apps like for example inside https://docusaurus.io/ or https://www.gatsbyjs.org/ when I want to have a lot more control on how the data is rendered. Or even make it…

Hey HN We’ve been building Logdash as a lightweight observability tool for side projects and prototypes. Most logging/metrics tools (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK...) are amazing, but feel like overkill when you're just hacking on something small. Logdash gives you: - Real-time logs and custom metrics - Zero config (no YAML, no setup) - One tiny SDK to drop in - Hosted UI with live dashboards We use Logdash to monitor Logdash — our own prod dashboard is public here: https://logdash.io/demo-dashboard Would love feedback, ideas, or questions!
