telescope

Hey HN. I want to share small library which i made. While I developing my log viewer (https://github.com/iamtelescope/telescope) I needed a way for users to filter the data in my UI. Something like `status = 500 and level = "error"`. And on the backend i need to convert it into the SQL. And by default I don't want to give users raw SQL (because of security concerns). So I create simple parser for this. Later, I have another project and I needed exactly same thing, but for PostgreSQL. And later for my CLI stuff. So i decided to extract this telescope thing in a standalone library/project and call it FlyQL. FlyQL is tiny filter language. It has implementation in three languages for today: Python, Golang and JavaScript. And it has support for 3 SQL dialects: ClickHouse, StarRocks and PostgreSQL. Also, there are Vue3 editor component, which

Telescope originally started as a ClickHouse-focused log viewer. But while building it, I kept running into the same pattern: when everything worked, logs were in ClickHouse. When things broke, logs were still inside Kubernetes. That gap led to adding Kubernetes as a native log source. This is not meant to replace proper log aggregation. Centralized storage with indexing and retention policies is still the right approach for production. But there are situations where aggregation doesn't help: the logging pipeline is broken, logs are delayed, or you're debugging locally and don't have a pipeline at all. In those cases, the logs are already in the pods. The usual fallback is kubectl logs (or stern), often across multiple terminals and namespaces. It works, but correlation becomes manual. Telescope can now query logs directly from Kubernetes

Hey HN, A while back I shared Telescope - a lightweight web UI for exploring logs stored in ClickHouse using a custom query language (FlyQL). Since then, it's come a long way. Recent releases (including the latest v0.0.19) added: - Docker sources: browse logs from your running containers — straight from the Docker API - Saved views: preserve filters, layout, and other UI settings across sessions - Raw SQL mode: write plain WHERE clauses directly (access to raw mode is permission-controlled) - ClickHouse JSON support: including quoted paths and nested field access - FlyQL is now easier to read and write: supports spaces and quoted JSON paths - And a bunch of small improvements and bugfixes… that I hope you won’t notice :) It's self-hosted and open-source (MIT). Always happy for feedback, feature requests, or a GitHub star! GitHub: https://

Hey everyone! I’m working on Telescope - an open-source web-based log viewer designed to make working with logs stored in ClickHouse easier and more intuitive. I wasn’t happy with existing log viewers - most of them force a specific log format, are tied to ingestion pipelines, or are just a small part of a larger platform. Others didn’t display logs the way I wanted. So I decided to build my own lightweight, flexible log viewer - one that actually fits my needs.
