how does jenkins ui show log files?
Custom log view implementation might not be required
Spring boot has a special endpoints called actuator api
One of this endpoints is : /actuator/logfile which is used to view the spring boot log :
curl 'http://localhost:8080/actuator/logfile' -i -X GET
how they are updating the file on server and client side
- Update log file in server is not our problem.
- A cool view in web is our concern.
- I used a node.js implementation. Is ready to use and you could take some ideas:
- I think a combination of web sockets, css and a correct file stream operation (open, close) and memory management, could be necessary to reach your goal.
