logs-update

logs-update

Log by overwriting the previous output in the terminal.
Useful for rendering progress bars, animations, etc.

Rust library and CLI for running the logs-update startup sequence with built-in defaults.

Install

Add to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
logs-update = "0.0.3"

Or from the command line:

cargo add logs-update

Usage

Library

Call run() from your application startup. It uses built-in defaults and runs the full sequence:

fn main() {
    if let Err(error) = logs_update::run() {
        eprintln!("warning: logs-update: {error:#}");
    }
}

Override settings programmatically:

use logs_update::{Config, run_with_config};

let config = Config {
    max_batch_bytes: 512 * 1024,
    ..Config::default()
};
run_with_config(&config)?;

CLI

cargo run --release

After publishing, install the binary with:

cargo install logs-update
logs-update

Network failures are logged as warnings and do not stop the sequence.
