logs

Display recent logs for an app, Heroku-style, with optional tailing.

Openbase Cloud currently surfaces recent error-level lines from the app's server stack. Without --tail, this prints one snapshot and exits.

Usage

openbase logs -a my-app                 # last 15 minutes, one snapshot
openbase logs -a my-app -n 60           # last 60 minutes
openbase logs -a my-app --tail          # stream new lines (Ctrl-C to stop)

Options

Option Description Default
-a, --app NAME Target app (or set OPENBASE_APP)
-n, --num MINUTES Show lines from the last MINUTES minutes 15
-t, --tail Continuously stream new lines until Ctrl-C off

How Tailing Works

The logs endpoint is a windowed pull, not a live stream. With --tail, the CLI re-queries every few seconds and prints only lines it has not shown yet, de-duplicating on a rolling window so repeated windows do not reprint. Press Ctrl-C to stop.
