Summary
This decouples user IO and the receiving of logs.
Tailer
is concerned with sending data on a channel. The data is either a log, an error, a warning, or a connection state.Tailer
, receives these different data types and processes them using a visitor object.This pattern enables
Tailer
to be used by any class that wants to do something with logs, for example a gRPC service that wants to stream logs, errors, and connection state to a gRPC client. All the class has to do is read from the channel and provide its own visitor object.This pattern might also work well for #574. This is quite boilerplate heavy, so I am open to other solutions as well.
