Colorize AWS CloudWatch Logs
Group logs visually on AWS CloudWatch
The purpose of this extension is to group logs visually on AWS CloudWatch. There are three rules:
- Set a different background color for each log group of AWS Lambda invocation. Therefore, you can easily recognize beginning, body and end of the logs of the same invocation.
- Set font weight of lines having `REPORT`, `[ERROR]` and `[Error ` keywords to bold.
- Set text color of ANSI terminal codes in the logs. (by https://github.com/oguimbal)
Further, there is two functionality for better log viewing experience (by https://github.com/oguimbal):
- Switching to fullscreen,
- Refreshing the logs periodically to load new items.
This extension doesn't collect any user and web page information. It only runs on AWS CloudWatch Logs web page. It is free to use.
Overhead is very low, colorize operation takes ~7 milliseconds, listen operation for new event logs takes just ~0.5 milliseconds in every second.
Contributions are welcome. To contribute please visit project page: https://github.com/ilhan-mstf/colorize_cloudwatch_logs

I came across this by complete chance, and am so happy I did. It's incredibly helpful to see breaks in the log entries. I even like your choice of colors! Makes my day every time I look at a log and know that I found something simple and helpful. Thank you for sharing it.
Works great with ANSI!

It worked briefly, but now doesn't seem to work. Not sure what is broken with it.
Simple solution, but useful. Well done!

What a life-saver of an extension. So much easier on the eyes when you're reading through cloudwatch logs all day.

It is so useful tool for lambda logs. Normally all logs have same color (or colorless). But with this tool, related logs are painted same color. So tracing is better. Thanks for ur effort.
