After implementing the K2 Logging Framework in a project recently, I found that while it was easy to implement the logging, it was quite cumbersome to read the file. I decided to write a simple application that can be used to read and filter the log files. I called it the K2 Log Reader, very original, I know…

The reader provides an easy way to read and filter the log file. As with most log files, finding the relevant information is the main issue when troubleshooting, so I implemented a filter allowing for a quick way to find the information that you’re after . Plus, there’s the ability to sort the information based on the returned fields. Another handy feature is the ability to refresh the log without losing the filter settings.

A K2 Logging Framework log file:

…and with the filter being used to find Errors and sorted on the DateTime field:

The K2 Log Reader is currently in beta and has not yet been extensively tested. Please let me know if you find any issues or if you have any questions or suggestions.
