Log reader for Send, Earn and Sweep inside UI #748

Open editwentyone opened 5 months ago

editwentyone commented 5 months ago

As a user I would love to be able to open an external window with my current log streaming automatically what is happening in the background.

when I start earn I get the ID and can find the correct log on the node. but that needs ssh and tail -f running. when I start a Send, I am blind because I can't pinpoint what log was created lastly to use easily.

behause there is always only one type of process running (send, earn, sweep) it should be easy to also show only the one correct log streaming

Describe the solution you'd like

JAM should give me a possibility to one click and open an a modal to see the correctly fetched log and give me opportunity to open that log even in its own external window to keep it open.

Describe alternatives you've considered

ssh into my node, find the right log that is active right now and stream that with tail -f

Very valid reasoning. Thank you @editwentyone

I think it might be a bit tricky, as we store api tokens in session storage and no other tab has access, afaik. However, it would be nice to have.
