The LogDNA CLI allows you to signup for a new account and tail your servers right from the command line.

Download the [LogDNA CLI installer for Mac] (http://repo.logdna.com/mac/logdna-cli.pkg).

Alternatively install via brew cask:

brew cask update
brew cask install logdna-cli

To install on Windows, using chocolatey:

choco install logdna

For Ubuntu/Debian:

sudo wget -qO /tmp/logdna-cli.deb http://repo.logdna.com/linux/logdna-cli.deb && sudo dpkg -i /tmp/logdna-cli.deb

For RHEL/CentOS:

sudo wget -qO /tmp/logdna-cli.rpm http://repo.logdna.com/linux/logdna-cli.rpm && sudo rpm -ivh /tmp/logdna-cli.rpm

Go to the LogDNA website, select your OS and follow the instructions. You can also type: logdna --help or node index --help using the source.

To build the cli, ensure you have nexe installed. This packages the LogDNA CLI as a native executable with the node.js runtime bundled. This will automatically build the runtime from source.

Ensure you have a native C++ compiler installed.

Ensure you have Visual Studio 2015 or newer installed.

Ensure you have Xcode 7 or newer installed.

To start the build:

grunt build

This takes a bit of time and will output a binary at ./logdna (or .\logdna.exe if on Windows). For the initial build, majority of time will be spent building node.js. Subsequent builds will be much faster as node.js would've already been built.

sudo gem install fpm
sudo yum install rpm-build createrepo
sudo yum --enablerepo=epel install dpkg-devel dpkg-dev
grunt linux

This will output the deb and yum files to the root of the repo.

Install chocolatey. Then do:

grunt windows

This will output the chocolatey package under .\.builds\windows.

gem install fpm
grunt mac

This will output the pkg file to the root of the repo. Signing will likely fail since we typically sign it with our Apple Developer key, but the package should still be usable, just unsigned.
