Tail and level highlighting for log4j output! Be gentle! Python amateur.
1: Copy all files to:
- OSX: /Users/_user_/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 2/Packages/Log4j/
2: Configure Log4j FileAppender. Example config, 'ConversionPattern' is important.
log4j.appender.ToFile=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender
log4j.appender.ToFile.threshold=DEBUG
log4j.appender.ToFile.Append=false
log4j.appender.ToFile.ImmediateFlush=true
log4j.appender.ToFile.File=log4j.log
log4j.appender.ToFile.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.ToFile.layout.ConversionPattern=[%p][%c{2}]: %m%n
- Expected output:
[LEVEL][category]: Message
- Start log4j, specify a filter. Hint: debug
{ "keys": ["super+shift+t"], "command": "log4j" }
- Bring the log4j panel to the front
{ "keys": ["ctrl+super+t"], "command": "show_panel", "args": {"panel": "output.log4j"} },
1: Log4j Syntax highlighting:
- (compiled file) Log4j.tmLanguage
- (source file) Log4j.JSON-tmLanguage
2: Log4j Theme override definitions
- Log4j.tmTheme
3: Log4j Sublime Plugin scripts:
- Log4j.py
- tail.py
** This plugin requires Kasum's awesome Python tail script.
** His original code is here: https://github.com/kasun/python-tail
It's bundled here as it has some small modifications that were required in order to stop it within a thread. Many thanks!
- Separate configuration for log file. Currently looks for: log4j.log
- Regexp for filter
- Optimize append. Has to be a cleaner way to open/configure/append this.
- Figure out how to bundle this all up
- Handle file resets gracefully
