Real-time Android log viewer inside VS Code.
- Right-click a device → Show Logcat
- Or via command:
Caspian: Show Logcat - Opens a webview panel with live log streaming
Use the dropdown to set minimum log priority:
- Verbose (V) — show everything
- Debug (D)
- Info (I) — default
- Warning (W)
- Error (E)
- Fatal (F)
Type in the search box to filter by tag name or message content. Filtering is case-insensitive and applies in real-time.
Click Pause to stop receiving new log entries. Click Resume to restart the stream. Useful for inspecting a specific log section.
Click Clear to wipe the log view and restart the logcat stream from scratch.
The viewer auto-scrolls to the latest entry. Scroll up manually to disable auto-scroll. Scroll back to the bottom to re-enable.
Log lines are color-coded by priority:
- Verbose — gray
- Debug — cyan
- Info — green
- Warning — yellow
- Error — red
- Fatal — magenta
The viewer retains up to 10,000 lines by default (configurable via caspian.logcat.maxLines). Older lines are automatically removed.
