Tail (or pipe) anything to a web browser or web browsers.
Useage
tail -f somefile.log | ./estail
Open a browser to localhost:8080 or maybe MachineName.local:8080
Need to clear the buffer? Refresh the browser.
Requires Go to be installed
git clone git@github.com:jweir/estail.git
cd estail
go get && go build
You should now have a binary file estail. Install in your PATH and you will be good to go.
I wanted to stream some log files from one machine to a tablet.
-p # http port
-v # display STDOUT in the terminal
Want more options? Fork it!
