# Command: logs
|
|
|
|
The `logs` command displays the log of a given task.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
nomad logs [options] <allocation> <task>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This command streams the logs of the given task in the allocation. If the
|
|
allocation is only running a single task, the task name can be omitted.
|
|
Optionally, the `-job` option may be used in which case a random allocation from
|
|
the given job will be chosen.
|
|

## Logs Options
|
|
|
|
* `-stderr`: Display stderr logs.
|
|
|
|
* `-verbose`: Display verbose output.
|
|
|
|
* `-job`: Use a random allocation from the specified job, prefering a running
|
|
allocation.
|
|
|
|
* `-f`: Causes the output to not stop when the end of the logs are reached, but
|
|
rather to wait for additional output.
|
|
|
|
* `-tail`: Show the logs contents with offsets relative to the end of the logs.
|
|
If no offset is given, -n is defaulted to 10.
|
|
|
|
* `-n`: Sets the tail location in best-efforted number of lines relative to the
|
|
end of the logs.
|
|
|
|
* `-c`: Sets the tail location in number of bytes relative to the end of the logs.

## Examples
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ nomad logs eb17e557 redis
|
|
foobar
|
|
baz
|
|
bam
|
|
|
|
$ nomad logs -stderr eb17e557 redis
|
|
[ERR]: foo
|
|
[ERR]: bar
|
|
|
|
$ nomad logs -job example
|
|
[ERR]: foo
|
|
[ERR]: bar
|
|
|
|
$ nomad logs -tail -n 2 eb17e557 redis
|
|
foobar
|
|
baz
|
|
|
|
$ nomad logs -tail -f -n 3 eb17e557 redis
|
|
foobar
|
|
baz
|
|
bam
|
|
<blocking>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Using Job ID instead of Allocation ID
|
|
|
|
Setting the `-job` flag causes a random allocation of the specified job to be
|
|
selected. Nomad will prefer to select a running allocation ID for the job, but
|
|
if no running allocations for the job are found, Nomad will use a dead
|
|
allocation.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
nomad logs -job <job-id> <task>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
This can be useful for debugging a job that has multiple allocations, and it's
|
|
not really required to use a specific allocation ID.
