Install: brew install --cask livetail

About:
Sumologic livetail CLI is a command-line interface tool designed to stream and tail logs from Sumo Logic in real-time. It allows developers and DevOps engineers to monitor live log data directly from their terminal, mimicking the familiar experience of using 'tail -f' on local files. This tool provides immediate visibility into application behavior and system events without needing to navigate the web UI.

Key Features:

Real-time log streaming from Sumo Logic
Support for complex search queries and filters
Familiar tail-like command-line interface
Configurable via local profile files

Use Cases:

Debugging production issues by monitoring live application logs
Observing real-time system metrics and events during deployments
Quickly inspecting log data without accessing the web interface

Alternatives:

sumologic-curl – Using raw curl commands is more verbose and lacks the interactive streaming experience
stern – Stern is for Kubernetes logs only, while livetail works with Sumo Logic's cloud data platform
