[Plugin] Logs Viewer

Logs Viewer puts your server's logs where you can see them: a widget on the Dashboard and a full page under Tools. It covers the system logs (syslog, dmesg, nginx, PHP, libvirt), every Docker container, every VM, the output of your User Scripts, and any log file of your own under /var/log, /mnt/user or /mnt/cache. Everything is read from the files already on the server. Nothing is uploaded anywhere.

What you get:

- Live view that follows new lines as they come in and pauses while your mouse is over it.

- Badges that count Info, Warnings, Errors and Critical, and filter the view when you click them. A colour strip in the footer shows the ratio at a glance.

- Search with highlighting and next/previous.

- Merge: pick two or more sources on the Tools page and read them as one log, ordered by timestamp.

- Backups: a zip of the sources you choose, daily or every 2 to 4 days, kept for 1 to 6 months, with a calendar to download any date.

- Alerts: rules that scan the logs every 1, 2 or 5 minutes and raise an Unraid notification on a match. Presets for failed logins, disk errors, out of memory, kernel panics, array errors and Docker crashes. Your own rules take plain text or regex, with a cooldown so one event does not flood you.

- Export as .log, .txt, .json or .csv.

- Syntax highlighting, bundled with the plugin, no CDN.

- Widget and Tools page are configured separately, so a quiet widget and a detailed Tools page is a normal setup.

- Works on all four Unraid themes and on a phone.

Requirements: Unraid 7.2.0 or newer. The User Scripts section only appears if that plugin is installed.

Install from Community Applications, search for Logs Viewer.

Support is on GitHub only. Bug reports, questions and requests go to GitHub Issues, not this thread. I do not follow forum threads for support, and a problem buried on page 14 of a thread helps nobody. One issue per problem, with the plugin version and your Unraid version, and I will answer there.

Two notes:

1. If you remember my earlier threads for this and the other plugins: I set them to hidden while I was fixing a few things, and a bug in the forum software made them disappear for good instead of hiding them. I could not get them back, so I am reposting them one at a time.

2. All my plugins are written with the help of AI. The design, the decisions, the testing on my own server and the responsibility for what ships are mine. I say it up front so nobody finds out later and feels misled.
