Running the client in the background #56

Open Jicxer opened 1 month ago

It is important for the log collection system to be able to ingest more than one log at a time. Currently, we are only able to ingest the data of a few logs at a time and send that to DynamoDB. When the user interacts with the command line and specifies to send logs; we should be able to loop that back to the menu and grant the user to interact with the log stream. This would be important to access the menu after sending logs as well. Otherwise, there would be no use to the "stop logs" option

The menu can only send log data. It cannot stop it aside from Crtl+C but that can be improved.

The test branch currently has implementations that can examine the running logs in the backgrounds and stop any running logs. The functionality for viewing the logs would need to be defined further. We can either have it view the contents of the logs or specify which ones are specified in the configuration file. Feel free to add suggestions as they come up.
