v1.31.0

Changes

  • Fix --verbosity flag to show missing logs (#317) c2b4410 (Takashi Kusumi)
  • Update dependencies for Kubernetes 1.31 (#315) a4fdcc9 (Takashi Kusumi)

v1.30.0

⚡ Notable Changes

Add support for configuring colors for pods and containers

You can now configure highlight colors for pods and containers in the config file using a comma-separated list of SGR (Select Graphic Rendition) sequences. See the "Customize highlight colors" section for details.

Example configuration:

# Green, Yellow, Blue, Magenta, Cyan, White
pod-colors: "32,33,34,35,36,37"

# Colors with underline (4)
# If empty, the pod colors will be used as container colors
container-colors: "32;4,33;4,34;4,35;4,36;4,37;4"

Display different colors for different containers

A new --diff-container flag allows displaying different colors for different containers. This is useful when you want to debug logs for multiple containers in the same pod.

You can also enable this feature in the config file.

diff-container: true

Changes

  • Add support to configure colors for pods and containers (#306) f4b2edc (Takashi Kusumi)
  • Display different colors for different containers (#305) d1b5d74 (Se7en)
  • Support an array value in the config file (#303) 6afabde (Takashi Kusumi)

v1.29.0

⚡ Notable Changes

A new --stdin flag for parsing logs from stdin

A new --stdin flag has been added, allowing parsing logs from stdin. This flag is helpful when applying the same template to local logs.

stern --stdin --template \
  '{{with $msg := .Message | tryParseJSON}}{{toTimestamp $msg.ts "01-02 15:04:05" "Asia/Tokyo"}} {{$msg.msg}}{{"\n"}}{{end}}' \
  <etcd.log

Additionally, this feature helps test your template with arbitrary logs.

stern --stdin --template \
  '{{with $msg := .Message | tryParseJSON}}{{levelColor $msg.level}} {{$msg.msg}}{{"\n"}}{{end}}' <<EOF
{"level":"info","msg":"info message"}
{"level":"error","msg":"error message"}
EOF

Add support for UNIX time with nanoseconds to template functions

The following template functions now support UNIX time seconds with nanoseconds (e.g., 1136171056.02).

  • toRFC3339Nano
  • toTUC
  • toTimestamp

Changes

  • Add support for UNIX time with nanoseconds to template functions (#300) 0d580ff (Takashi Kusumi)
  • Clarify that '=' cannot be omitted in --timestamps (#296) ac36420 (Takashi Kusumi)
  • Added example to README (#295) c1649ca (Thomas Güttler)
  • Update dependencies for Kubernetes 1.30 (#293) d82cc9f (Kazuki Suda)
  • Add --stdin for stdin log parsing (#292) 53fc746 (Jimmie Högklint)

v1.28.0

⚡ Notable Changes

Highlight matched strings in the log lines with the highlight option

Some part of a log line can be highlighted while still displaying all other logs lines.

--highlight flag now highlight matched strings in the log lines.

stern --highlight "\[error\]" .

v1.27.0

⚡ Notable Changes

Add new template function: toTimestamp

The toTimestamp function takes in an object, a layout, and optionally a timezone. This allows for more custom time parsing, for instance, if a user doesn't care about seeing the date of the log and only the time (in their own timezone) they can use a template such as:

--template '{{ with $msg := .Message | tryParseJSON }}[{{ toTimestamp $msg.time "15:04:05" "Local" }}] {{ $msg.msg }}{{ end }}{{ "\n" }}'

Add generic kubectl options

stern now has the generic options that kubectl has, and a new --show-hidden-options option.

$ stern --show-hidden-options
The following options can also be used in stern:
      --as string                      Username to impersonate for the operation. User could be a regular user or a service account in a namespace.
      --as-group stringArray           Group to impersonate for the operation, this flag can be repeated to specify multiple groups.
      --as-uid string                  UID to impersonate for the operation.
      --cache-dir string               Default cache directory (default "/home/ksuda/.kube/cache")
      --certificate-authority string   Path to a cert file for the certificate authority
      --client-certificate string      Path to a client certificate file for TLS
      --client-key string              Path to a client key file for TLS
      --cluster string                 The name of the kubeconfig cluster to use
      --disable-compression            If true, opt-out of response compression for all requests to the server
      --insecure-skip-tls-verify       If true, the server's certificate will not be checked for validity. This will make your HTTPS connections insecure
      --request-timeout string         The length of time to wait before giving up on a single server request. Non-zero values should contain a corresponding time unit (e.g. 1s, 2m, 3h). A value of zero means don't timeout requests. (default "0")
      --server string                  The address and port of the Kubernetes API server
      --tls-server-name string         Server name to use for server certificate validation. If it is not provided, the hostname used to contact the server is used
      --token string                   Bearer token for authentication to the API server
      --user string                    The name of the kubeconfig user to use

The number of kubectl generic options is so large that it makes it difficult to see stern's own list of options, so we usually hide them. Use --show-hidden-options if you want to list.

Changes

  • Add generic cli options (#283) f315819 (Kazuki Suda)
  • 281: Support toTimestamp template function (#282) 5445cd5 (Will Anderson)

v1.25.0

⚡ Notable Changes

Add support for the config file

You can now use the config file to change the default values of stern options. The default config file path is ~/.config/stern/config.yaml.

# <flag name>: <value>
tail: 10
max-log-requests: 999
timestamps: short

You can change the config file path with --config flag or STERNCONFIG environment variable.

  • Update dependencies and tools (#256) 531f869 (Kazuki Suda)
  • Allow an empty config file (#255) c76ea87 (Takashi Kusumi)
  • Add support for the config file (#254) 2fdc298 (Kazuki Suda)
  • Make setup-go get Go version from go.mod (#253) 23feff7 (Takashi Kusumi)

v1.24.0

⚡ Notable Changes

Add a short format for timestamps

--timestamps flag now accepts a format, one of default or short.

  • default: the original format 2006-01-02T15:04:05.000000000Z07:00 (RFC3339Nano with trailing zeros)
  • short: the new format 01-02 15:04:05 (time.DateTime without year).

If --timestamps is specified but without value, default is used to maintain backward compatibility.

$ stern --timestamps=short -n kube-system ds/kindnet --no-follow --tail 1 --only-log-lines
kindnet-hqn2k kindnet-cni 03-12 09:29:53 I0312 00:29:53.620499       1 main.go:250] Node kind-worker3 has CIDR [10.244.1.0/24]
kindnet-5f4ms kindnet-cni 03-12 09:29:53 I0312 00:29:53.374482       1 main.go:250] Node kind-worker3 has CIDR [10.244.1.0/24]

Add --node flag to filter on a specific node

New --node flag allows you to filter pods on a specific node. This flag will be helpful when we debug pods on the specific node.

# Print a DaemonSet pod on the specific node
stern --node <NODE_NAME> daemonsets/<DS_NAME>

# Print all pods on the specific node
stern --node <NODE_NAME> --all-namespaces --no-follow --max-log-requests 1 .

Highlight matched strings in the log lines with the include option

--include flag now highlight matched strings in the log lines.

stern --include "\[error\]" .

Add all option to --container-state flag

--container-state flag now accepts all that is the same with specifying running,waiting,terminated. This change is helpful when we debug CrashLoopBackoff containers.

# Before
stern --container-state running,terminated,running <QUERY>

# After
stern --container-state all <QUERY>`

⚠️ Breaking Changes

Add --max-log-requests flag to limit concurrent requests

New --max-log-requests flag allows you to limit concurrent requests to prevent unintentional load to a cluster. The behavior and the default are different depending on the presence of the --no-follow flag.

--no-follow default behavior
specified 5 limits the number of concurrent logs to request
not specified 50 exits with an error when if it reaches the concurrent limit

If you want to change to the same behavior as before, specify a sufficiently large value for --max-log-requests.

Change the default of --container-state flag to all

The default value of --container-state has been changed to all from running. With this change, stern will now show logs of completed (terminated) and CrashLoopBackoff (waiting) pods in addition to running pods by default.

If you want to change to the same behavior as before, explicitly specify --container-state to running.

v1.23.0

New features

Add --no-follow flag to exit when all logs have been shown

New --no-follow flag allows you to exit when all logs have been shown.

stern --no-follow .

Support <resource>/<name> form as a query

Stern now supports a Kubernetes resource query in the form <resource>/<name>. Pod query can still be used.

stern deployment/nginx

The following Kubernetes resources are supported:

  • daemonset
  • deployment
  • job
  • pod
  • replicaset
  • replicationcontroller
  • service
  • statefulset

Shell completion of stern already supports this feature.

Add --verbosity flag to set log level verbosity

New --verbosity flag allows you to set the log level verbosity of Kubernetes client-go. This feature is useful when you want to know how stern interacts with a Kubernetes API server in troubleshooting.

stern --verbosity=6 .

Add --only-log-lines flag to print only log lines

New --only-log-lines flag allows you to print only log lines (and errors if occur). The difference between not specifying the flag and specifying it is as follows:

$ stern . --tail=1 --no-follow
+ nginx-cfbcb7b98-96xsv › nginx
+ nginx-cfbcb7b98-29wn7 › nginx
nginx-cfbcb7b98-96xsv nginx 2023/01/27 13:20:48 [notice] 1#1: start worker process 46
