Colorize commands output or STDIN using patterns.
Project description
Easily colorize logs or commands output using patterns.
rainbow [ --COLOR=PATTERN ... | --conf CONF ] COMMAND
Examples
Using patterns
Just prepend rainbow with COLOR=PATTERN associations to your command, for example:
Tail some log file with lines containing ERROR in red:
rainbow --red='.*ERROR.*' -- tail -f /var/log/my.log
Ping Google with IP addresses colorized in yellow:
rainbow --yellow='\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}' -- ping www.google.com
Rainbow can also read from STDIN instead of providing a command:
tail -f /var/log/my.log | rainbow --red='.*ERROR.*'
Using confs
Rainbow can read COLOR=PATTERN associations from config files, which is the most common way to use it. It automatically uses the config file if there is one named after the command name in ~/.rainbow, or a builtin one:
Colorize the diff command output using the builtin config:
rainbow diff file1 file2
Start JBoss application server with colorized logs:
rainbow --config=jboss -- jboss/bin/run.sh run
The syntax for writing configs is very simple. See the builtin configs for examples.
