# Rubyception

A realtime log viewer for Rails (released under the MIT license)

--------------------

This shows a normal log entry
![screenshot 1](https://s3.amazonaws.com/tye/rubyception1.png)

This entry has an exception. The backtrace file names are clickable and will open in MacVim. Soon support for TextMate & other editors will be added.

## Features

* Real-time updating of the log file using Websocket
* Filenames in exceptions are shown as links which open in MacVim (support for TextMate and other editors to be added soon)

## Installation

Add to your gemfile **in the development group**:
```ruby
group :development do
  gem 'rubyception'
end
```
Run:
```
bundle install
```

Add to your `config/routes.rb`:
```ruby
mount Rubyception::Engine => '/rubyception'
```
Run your rails server and go to: 
`http://localhost:3000/rubyception` 
Your log entries will appear on the rubyception page in realtime. You
must be using a browser that supports Websockets.

## Using in Production
Rubyception is not intended to be used in a production environment. If
you need exception handling in production I recommend
[Airbrake](http://airbrake.io/pages/home),
[Exceptional](http://www.exceptional.io/) or
[NewRelic](https://newrelic.com/).

## Hotkeys
`up` or `k` Move selection up 
`down` or `j` Move selection down 
`enter` Expand selected entry 
`G` Go to last entry 
`gg` Go to first entry 
`42gg` or `42G` Go to 42nd entry 
`p` Toggles between inline and nested parameters view if you have a log
entry open
