LogViewer can be added to existing Spring Boot application as a library. The library provides the log-viewer servlet. You can map the servlet to any URL and it will show logs. Log configuration will be detected automatically.
The library is com.logviewer:log-viewer-spring-boot:0.1.6
in https://dl.bintray.com/sevdokimov/log-viewer maven repository

When the log-viewer library is added, add com.logviewer.springboot.LogViewerSpringBootConfig
configuration class to the Spring configuration.
That's all! LogViewerSpringBootConfig maps LogViewerServlet
servlet to "/logs" URL, list of log files and its format will
be detected automatically.
URL for LogViewerServlet
servlet mapping can be specified by log-viewer.url-mapping
property.
You can specify the list of available logs manually, if LogViewer cannot detect it automatically. Create a spring bean of type
com.logviewer.logLibs.LogConfigurationLoader
that has Map<Path, LogFormat> getLogConfigurations()
method.
This method returns a map containing paths to log files mapped to formats. The format may be "null", in this case
LogViewer will detect the format automatically. The default log configuration detection can be disabled by
log-viewer.disable-default-configuration-loader=true
property.
If your application support WebSocket, add com.logviewer.springboot.LogViewerWebsocketConfig
configuration class too.
It switches UI ⟷ Backend interaction to WebSocket protocol. WebSocket works slightly faster than HTTP requests.
Path for WebSocket endpoint can be specified by log-viewer.websocket.path
property.
