The LogDNA CLI allows you to sign up for a new account and tail your logs right from the command line.
Download the LogDNA CLI installer for Mac.
Alternatively install via brew cask:
brew cask update
brew cask install logdna-cli
To install on Windows, using chocolatey:
choco install logdna
For Ubuntu/Debian:
sudo wget -qO /tmp/logdna-cli.deb http://repo.logdna.com/linux/logdna-cli.deb && sudo dpkg -i /tmp/logdna-cli.debFor RHEL/CentOS:
sudo wget -qO /tmp/logdna-cli.rpm http://repo.logdna.com/linux/logdna-cli.rpm && sudo rpm -ivh /tmp/logdna-cli.rpmFollow these quick instructions to run the LogDNA CLI from source:
git clone https://github.com/logdna/logdna-cli.git
cd logdna-cli
npm install
# help
node index.js --help
# login using one of commands below
node index.js login
node index.js ssologin
To build the cli, ensure you have nexe installed. This packages the LogDNA CLI as a native executable with the node.js runtime bundled. This will automatically build the runtime from source.
Ensure you have a native C++ compiler installed.
Ensure you have Visual Studio 2015 or newer installed.
Ensure you have Xcode 7 or newer installed.
To start the build:
grunt build
This takes a bit of time and will output a binary at ./logdna (or .\logdna.exe if on Windows). For the initial build, majority of time will be spent building node.js. Subsequent builds will be much faster as node.js would've already been built.
sudo gem install fpm
sudo yum install rpm-build createrepo
sudo yum --enablerepo=epel install dpkg-devel dpkg-dev
grunt linux
This will output the deb and yum files to the root of the repo.
Install chocolatey. Then do:
grunt windows
This will output the chocolatey package under .\.builds\windows.
gem install fpm
grunt mac
This will output the pkg file to the root of the repo. Signing will likely fail since we typically sign it with our Apple Developer key, but the package should still be usable, just unsigned.
