video+logs

i did a little POC locally to test if showing logs alongside of the video is possible without much change. my findings is that it would only require a minor change in selenoid for the websocket stream logs https://github.com/aerokube/selenoid/blob/master/selenoid.go#L664

wsconn.PayloadType = websocket.TextFrame
fc, err := ioutil.ReadFile(path.Clean(logOutputDir + "/" + sid + ".log"))
if err != nil {
  log.Printf("[%d] [LOG_NOT_FOUND] [%s]", requestId, err)
	return
}
websocket.Message.Send(wsconn, string(fc))

and then add the Log component in the video ui. to get an output like this:

keep in mind this is just a proof of concept so is not pretty 😛 i wanted to check if this is something the project wants to support moving forward.

Thanks

dont see the reason as well - isn’t better to just download log and open that in a full terminal, where you can search, edit and expand full screen?

I wouldn’t go in this direction, but thx for the PoC 😃 was interesting

@vania-pooh the log component in the ui uses the websocket to show the xtern like ui, I’m not sure how much work would be to build a new component that uses the http endpoint, but it should be possible right @lanwen ?
