humanlog reads logs from stdin and prints them back to stdout, but prettier.
humanlog parses logs and makes them easier to read and search.
When invoked with no argument, it consumes stdin and parses it, attempting to make detected logs prettier on stdout.
If you emit logs in JSON or in logfmt, you will enjoy pretty logs when those entries are encountered by humanlog. Unrecognized lines are left unchanged.
This is free and open source software.
