Ability to Launch "Tail File in Console" as Run/Debug Configuration #190

Closed er2 closed 3 years ago

er2 commented 3 years ago

IntelliJ's Compound Run Configuration is extremely useful in allowing me to launch the multiple parts of my application with a single click. Currently I have one that launches

My build is flaky so sometimes I run into issues running the tomcat server in IntelliJ and resort to launching it via the command line. Then I watch the catalina.out log file via the "Tail File In Console" function.

My problem is that "Tail File in Console" doesn't launch as a Run configuration so I can't group it with the above.

Additionally it is tedious to navigate to the log file every time I use that function, but the fault there lies with either myself or MacOS. Although maybe GrepConsole could remember the last file I selected.
