Products that do what Kubetail – Web-based real-time log viewer for Kubernetes does

Hi Everyone! Kubetail is a new project I've been working on. It's a private, real-time log viewer for Kubernetes clusters. You deploy it inside your cluster and access it via a web browser, like the Kubernetes Dashboard. Using kubetail, you can view logs in real-time from multiple Workload containers simultaneously. For example, you can view all the logs from the Pod containers running in a Deployment and the UI will update automatically as the pods come into and out of existence. Kubetail uses your in-cluster Kubernetes API so your logs are always in your possession and it's private by…

    Hi Everyone! Kubetail is a general-purpose logging dashboard for Kubernetes, optimized for tailing logs across multi-container workloads in real-time. With Kubetail, you can view logs from all the containers in a workload (e.g. Deployment or DaemonSet) merged into a single chronological timeline, delivered to your browser or terminal. I launched Kubetail on HN last year and at that time the top request was to add search. Now I'm happy to say we finally have search available in our latest official release (cli/v0.4.3, helm/v0.10.1). You can check it out in action here:…

    Hey HN, I'm Brandon, a solo dev, and I built KubeForge - a visual editor for Kubernetes deployments that helps you build and validate YAML configs. Origin Story: Over the past couple weeks, I got fed up manually writing Kubernetes YAMLs, especially when working with nested structures like containers, env, and volumeMounts. Even small typos or misaligned fields added lost time to broken deploys. So I started hacking together a tool to visualize the structure of Kubernetes objects based on the OpenAPI schema. That prototype quickly turned into a full manifest builder. What KubeForge does: -…

    I built an interactive explorer for Kubernetes resources spec A few things included: - Tree view with schema, type and description of all native resources - History changes since version X (properties added/removed/modified) - Examples of some resources that you can easily copy as a starting point - Supports all versions since X, including the newly released 1.32 - I also want to add support for popular CRD, but I’m not sure how I’ll do that yet, I’m open to suggestions! Everything is auto generated based on the OpenAPI spec, with some manual inputs for examples and external links.…

    Hey folks. I'm the author of kr8s. I’ve been working on kr8s for a while now and one of my core goals is to build a Python library for Kubernetes that is the most simple, readable and produces the most maintainable code. It should enable folks to write clean code when working with the Kubernetes API. If you're interested in how it compares with other libraries then check out [this post](https://jacobtomlinson.dev/posts/2023/comparison-of-kr8s-vs-...). Happy to answer any questions you might have in the comments here .

    Hi HN, I’m Michael and I’m here to introduce you to Grogg. I got frustrated over the years with the endless chain of kubectl commands and disjointed dashboards, so I built Grogg, a VSCode extension that delivers a modern, slick interface for Kubernetes management. Check Grogg at https://grogg.app It’s designed for tasks like quick scaling, multi-log viewing, and handling multiple clusters, all from your editor. What Grogg Does: - Multi cluster, manage multiple clusters and namespaces without leaving your editor. - Built as a vscode extension, Stay in your editor. - Quick actions,…
