# This shell script demonstrates writing logs from machines
# and then reprocessing those logs to amalgamate python tracebacks
# into a single log entry in a new collection.
#
# To run this demo, first install the example applications:
#
#        go install tailscale.com/logtail/example/...
#
# Then generate a LOGTAIL_API_KEY and two test collections by visiting:
#
#        https://log.tailscale.io
#
# Then set the three variables below.
