SLUG - Unity Log Parser
A (very) simple tool written in rush for parsing Unity3D Engine logs to see player's journey easily within a markdown table. This is not intended to be a production-ready tool, but might come in handy for people who is struggling reading huge logs.
Benefits
It formats each log entry into a markdown table row, without the stack trace bloating. This way you can read the sequence of things happened. It also captures the exceptions with the latest stack call - so you can see what threw the exception.
Sample Data
Below is an example of what Engine.log
looks like after exporting as markdown:
WARNING: This log is only for checking out progression easily. You should examine the original
Engine.log
as well.
ERROR | LINE | CLASS | LOG |
---|---|---|---|
197931 | Game Manager | Level Loaded: MyBeautifulLevel | |
197931 | Game Manager | Music Started: MyBeautifulAudio | |
197931 | Escape Menu | Escape Menu Instantiated | |
197860 | WorldTimeManager | Game Paused | |
197931 | Escape Menu | Escape Menu Destroyed | |
ERROR | 212984 | MissingReferenceException | The object of type 'MySh*ttyCode' has been destroyed but you are still trying to access it |
The Catch
In order to use this tool, you should format your logs (Debug.Log etc.) like this:
Debug.Log("[CLASS NAME] Real Log Message")
Or optionally, you can check out SLUG - Unity Logger which does the same thing, except for writing down [Class Name]
manually.
Either way, slug can parse all log messages starting with [
and create a markdown table.
