itch-logview

A small rust CLI for viewing itch logs.

And by itch, I mean the itch.io app.

Installation

Clone the repository and cd into it, then:

cargo install itch-logview

Usage

Run without arguments to get help.

Pass an itch log file to view:

itch-logview /path/to/itch.txt

Note: in itch v25, the main log is in $XDG_CONFIG/.config/itch/logs/itch.txt on Linux, %APPDATA%/itch/logs/itch.txt on Windows, ~/Library/Application Support/itch/logs/itch.txt on macOS.

Use --follow (or -f for short) to have tail -f-like behavior.

This tool will skip over malformed JSON lines, so if you pass it a random file chances are there'll just be no output.
