Pail is an experimental package to tail logs

Nuno Maduro shared an experimental Artisan package to provide an effortless way to tail logs in your Laravel applications:

I want to emphasize again that Nuno shared Pail this week in a very early form as an "idea in the making." It's not ready for production but you can indeed start experimenting with it and provide feedback:

This package is still in its proof-of-concept phase. It's an idea in the making, not yet optimized for production scenarios. Any feedback is welcome!

Some fantastic ideas so far include filtering logs by an authenticated user or filtering:

php artisan pail --user=1
 
php artisan pail --filter="Illuminate\Database"

Since this package doesn't have any releases, you can install it as a dev dependency using dev-main:

composer require nunomaduro/pail:dev-main

You can learn more about this package, get full installation instructions, and check it out on GitHub at nunomaduro/pail.
