User-friendly Kubernetes logging

First, install the Kubetail CLI tool (kubetail) via homebrew  (or the latest release binaries ):

brew install kubetail

Next, start the web dashboard using the serve subcommand:

kubetail serve

This command will open http://localhost:7500/  in your default browser. To view the logs for a different cluster just change your kubectl context.

First, add the Kubetail org’s chart repository, then install the “kubetail” chart:

helm repo add kubetail https://kubetail-org.github.io/helm-charts/
helm install kubetail kubetail/kubetail --namespace kubetail-system --create-namespace

For more information on how to configure the helm chart, see the chart’s values.yaml  file.

To access the web dashboard you can expose it as an ingress using the chart or you can use your usual access methods such as kubectl port-forward:

kubectl port-forward -n kubetail-system svc/kubetail-server 7500:7500

Visit http://localhost:7500 

First, create a namespace for the Kubetail resources:

kubectl create namespace kubetail-system

Next, choose your authentication mode (cluster or token) and apply the latest manifest file:

# For cluster-based authentication use kubetail-clusterauth.yaml:
kubectl apply -f https://github.com/kubetail-org/helm-charts/releases/latest/download/kubetail-clusterauth.yaml
 
# For token-based authentication use kubetail-tokenauth.yaml:
kubectl apply -f https://github.com/kubetail-org/helm-charts/releases/latest/download/kubetail-tokenauth.yaml

To access the web dashboard you can use your usual access methods such as kubectl port-forward:

kubectl port-forward -n kubetail-system svc/kubetail-server 7500:7500

Visit http://localhost:7500 

To install Kubetail using Glasskube , you can select “Kubetail” from the “ClusterPackages” tab in the Glasskube GUI then click “install” or you can run the following command:

glasskube install kubetail

Once Kubetail is installed you can use it by clicking “open” in the Glasskube GUI or by using the open command:

glasskube open kubetail
