React LogViewer

React component that loads and views remote text in the browser lazily and efficiently. Logs can be loaded from static text, a URL, a WebSocket, or an EventSource and including ANSI highlighting. Forked from mozilla-frontend-infra/react-lazylog.

Demo

You can see a running demonstration at https://melloware.github.io/react-logviewer/ which is built from StoryBook.

Installation

Install the plugin with npm or yarn:

$ npm i --save @melloware/react-logviewer

Getting started

The core component from react-logviewer is LazyLog. There is also a higher-order component (HOC) for following logs until scroll. This module can be required via ES imports, CommonJS require, or UMD.

import { LazyLog } from "@melloware/react-logviewer";

// using require
const { LazyLog } = require("@melloware/react-logviewer");

<LazyLog />

Usage

After importing a component, it can be rendered with the required url prop:

import React from "react";
import { render } from "react-dom";
import { LazyLog } from "@melloware/react-logviewer";

render(<LazyLog url="http://example.log" />, document.getElementById("root"));

By default the LazyLog will expand to fill its container, so ensure this container has valid dimensions and layout. If you wish to have fixed dimensions, change the height and width props.

If you are going to be rendering a complete file, or an endpoint which can be downloaded all at once, use the <LazyLog /> component as-is for better overall performance at the expense of slightly longer upfront load time.

If you are going to be requesting a streaming or chunked response, use the <LazyLog stream /> component with the stream prop of true for quicker upfront rendering as content can be decoded as it arrives. |

<ScrollFollow />

ScrollFollow is a higher-order component (HOC) that aims to simplify toggling a LazyLog's "follow" functionality based on user scrolling.

Usage

The ScrollFollow component accepts a render prop function which should return a component to render based on the function's arguments.

[!NOTE]
ScrollFollow must be wrapped in an element that contains a fixed height such as a <div>

import React from "react";
import { render } from "react-dom";
import { LazyLog, ScrollFollow } from "@melloware/react-logviewer";

render(
    <div style={{ height: 500, width: 902 }}>
    <ScrollFollow
        startFollowing={true}
        render={({ follow, onScroll }) => (
            <LazyLog url="http://example.log" stream follow={follow} onScroll={onScroll} />
        )}
    />
    </div>,
    document.getElementById("root"),
);

Styling

All of the components exposed from react-lazylog use CSS modules to contain its styles to each individual component. If you wish to override these styles, there are a few techniques you can use.

style and containerStyle

For the core container of <LazyLog />, you can pass a style object prop to affect many styles. For affecting the look or behavior of the scrollable region of these components, use the containerStyle prop with a styling object.

defaultProps.style

For many react-logviewer components, continually passing varied styling objects is tedious. To make this simpler, you can override the defaultProps.style of any desired component to override styles of that component. For example:

import Line from "@melloware/react-logviewer/build/Line";

// Use defaultProps.style to set the style for an internal component
Line.defaultProps.style = {
    color: "green",
};

Note: overriding the ANSI colors and styles is currently undocumented, and will probably need some source-diving to figure out. I would gladly accept a pull request that could improve the styling API.

CSS stylesheets

If you are using CSS stylesheets, you can target the main virtual LazyList component with the react-lazylog class name. From there you can target the individual div lines, a line numbers, or span line content.

Sub-components

react-lazylog uses a number of sub-components internally to render individual parts of the log-viewing component:

<Line />

A single row of content, containing both the line number and any text content within the line.

<LineNumber />

The line number of a single line. The anchor contained within is interactive, and will highlight the entire line upon selection.

<LineContent />

The container of all the individual pieces of content that is on a single line. May contain one or more LineParts depending on ANSI parsing.

<LinePart />

An individual segment of text within a line. When the text content is ANSI-parsed, each boundary is placed within its own LinePart and styled separately (colors, text formatting, etc.) from the rest of the line's content.

Technology

  • Virtua for efficiently rendering large lines of data
  • fetch API for efficiently requesting data with array buffers and binary streams
  • ansiparse for nice log styling, like Travis
  • mitt for dead-simple events to manage streaming lifecycle
  • Immutable for efficiently storing and managing very large collections of lines and highlight ranges
  • Uint8Array for dealing with text content as binary, allows for conditionally rendering partial data and decoding everything without crashing your browser

Development and Contributing

  • Fork and clone this repo.
  • Install the dependencies with npm.
  • Start the development server with npm run storybook. This will launch a StoryBook instance. Open a browser to http://localhost:6006 to preview the React components.
  • Use CTRL-C to exit the StoryBook.
  • Use npm run build to generate the compiled component for publishing to npm.

Publishing

Adjust the version in the package.json if necessary, then

npm login
# This will run npm run build automatically
npm publish --access public

Then upload code to github, create tag & release.
