Logs - Kernel

Via API

After you invoke an action, you can stream the invocation’s logs in real time:

import Kernel from '@onkernel/sdk';

const kernel = new Kernel();

const logs = await kernel.invocations.follow(invocation_id);

from kernel import Kernel

kernel = Kernel()
logs = kernel.invocations.follow(invocation_id)

package main

import (
	"context"
	"fmt"

	"github.com/kernel/kernel-go-sdk"
)

func main() {
	ctx := context.Background()
	client := kernel.NewClient()

	logs := client.Invocations.FollowStreaming(ctx, "inv_123", kernel.InvocationFollowParams{})
	defer logs.Close()

	for logs.Next() {
		event := logs.Current()
		if event.Event == "log" {
			fmt.Println(event.Message)
		}
	}
	if err := logs.Err(); err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
}

Log lines will be truncated to 64KiB. For large payloads write data to external storage and log a reference instead.

Example

Here’s an example showing how to handle streaming logs:

Typescript/Javascript

const follow = await kernel.invocations.follow(invocation.id);

for await (const evt of follow) {
  if (evt.event === 'log') {
    console.log(`[${evt.timestamp}] ${evt.message}`);
  } else if (evt.event === 'error') {
    console.error('Error:', evt.error.message);
    break;
  } else if (evt.event === 'invocation_state') {
    if (evt.invocation.status === 'succeeded' || evt.invocation.status === 'failed') {
      break;
    }
  }
}

Via CLI

You can also stream the logs to your terminal via the CLI:

kernel logs <app_name> --follow

If you don’t specify --follow, the logs will print to the terminal until 3 seconds of inactivity and then stops. You can get logs for a specific invocation by adding:

-i --invocation <invocation id>    Show logs for a specific invocation of the app.
