Modern operating systems like macOS generate vast amounts of system logs every minute. These logs contain rich data about system behavior, network activity, application performance, authentication, crashes, and more. However, these logs are:
- Difficult to navigate without GUI tools
- Lacking summarized insights
- Inaccessible to developers through simple CLI tooling
There is a need for a flexible and intelligent CLI tool that can fetch, filter, analyze, and summarize macOS logs directly from the terminal.
deeplog-cli-nodejs aims to solve this problem by building a powerful, modular, and extensible Node.js CLI application that provides:
- 📦 Easy access to macOS logs via native tools like
log showandlog stream - 🔍 On-demand filtering, searching, and querying of logs
- 📊 Summary reports of critical system events (errors, VPN usage, failed auth, etc.)
- 📁 Export capabilities in JSON/Markdown/HTML
