"Realtime" Log files monitoring-Linux
This article is about a toll that I need to build, because I could not
find appropriate axisting tool.
The particular task was to monitor log file changes in time from the
console for short period of time.
That's why I've written this bash script.
I called it filecheck. Current version is 0.1
You can download it from filecheck.zip
Installation:
Unzip downloaded file.
run it with sh filecheck.sh
Usage:
filecheck <file name> [period]
File name - path to the file to monitor
period - interval to check file in seconds, Default value is 10 seconds.
On each interval it will show to the console all added lines.
