# Tail implementation in Go
|
||
|
|
||
|
A Go package striving to emulate the BSD `tail` program.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```Go
|
||
|
t := tail.TailFile("/var/log/nginx.log", 1000, true, true)
|
||
|
for line := range t.Lines {
|
||
|
fmt.Println(line.Text)
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## TODO
|
||
|
|
||
|
* tests
|
||
|
* command line program (`tail -f ...`)
|
||
|
* refactor: use Config? `NewTail(tail.Config{Filename: "", Follow: tail.FOLLOW_NAME})`
|
||
|
* refactor: get rid of 'end' flag; allow `-n <number>` with `-n -1`
|
||
|
for end.
