Yozefu – a TUI to search for data in Kafka
Yōzefu is an interactive terminal user interface (TUI) for exploring data of a kafka cluster. It is an alternative tool to AKHQ, redpanda console or the kafka plugin for JetBrains IDEs. The tool is built on top of Ratatui, a Rust library for building TUIs. Yozefu offers interesting features such as: - Real-time access to data published to topics. - The ability to search kafka records across multiple topics. - A search query language inspired by SQL providing fine-grained filtering capabilities. - The possibility to extend the search engine with user-defined filters written in WebAssembly…

We built Gonzo to make log analysis faster and friendlier in the terminal. Think of it like k9s for logs — a TUI that can ingest JSON, text, or OpenTelemetry (OTLP) logs, highlight and boil up patterns, and even run AI models locally or via API to summarize logs. We’re still iterating, so ideas and contributions are welcome!
- YIYakari – Interactive TUIs for CLI tools2024 · github.com · ▲78
Hi HN! I wanted to share Yakari, a tool I built to make command-line interfaces more approachable through interactive TUIs. If you've ever forgotten CLI flags or needed to look up command syntax, this might help. Yakari turns complex commands into interactive menus. Users can navigate through options with simple key presses instead of memorizing complex command structures. If you've used Emacs and Magit (or any other Transient) before, the interface will feel familiar. Features: - Transform CLIs into guided menus - Create custom menus for any CLI - Support for flags, named parameters,…
- FGFlatito, grep for YAML and JSON files2024 · github.com · ▲65
It is a kind of grep for YAML and JSON files. It allows you to search for a key and get the value and the line number where it is located. I created this tool because I sometimes struggle to find specific keys in typical i18n rails yamls. In the views, you don't always have the whole key, but it is extrapolated from the context. I am sure there are other use cases; I hope you find it useful. Cheers!
