A small question about the log file

[hope-data-science]

Thank you for building such a powerful tool for the community. I have a question that when I create a new database, the log is updating all the time, how am I possible to read it while it is being written, would there be a problem?

Currently I made a copy and read it, but this practice is not elegant I suppose. Any way to deal with it? Thanks.

One option on the terminal is watch, e.g., watch -n 1 tail -n 20 path/to/logfile. On Mac, you should also be able to use the Console app.
