    Kubetail

    Kubetail

    Bash script to tail Kubernetes logs from multiple pods

    Bash script that enables you to aggregate (tail/follow) logs from multiple pods into one stream. This is the same as running "kubectl logs -f " but for multiple pods. Just download the kubetail file (or any of the releases) and you're good to go. Note that you may need to run compinit for zsh to pick-up the changes in the competition after having upgraded from the non-abbreviated installation. If you're using a ZSH plugin manager, you can install kubetail as a plugin. kubetail itself doesn't have filtering or highlighting capabilities built in. If you're on MacOSX I recommend using iTerm2 which allows for continuous highlighting of search terms, good scrolling capabilities, and multitab arrangements. Another useful feature of iTerm2 is the "timeline" (cmd + shift + e) which lets you display a timeline in your own local timezone next to the logs (that are typically in UTC).
