Logs

Everything your app writes to stdout and stderr is captured per machine and available instantly.

Reading logs

terminal

wess logs blog            # last 200 lines
wess logs blog -n 500     # more history
wess logs blog -f         # follow live

Logs follow the current machine — after a deploy, you're reading the new build's output.

Tips

Log to stdout, not files: anything written to standard output is captured automatically; files inside the machine are discarded when it's retired. Structured lines (JSON or key=value) make later filtering easier.
