awslogs: Watch logs for any streams in the specified group.
$ awslogs get ${-var-log-syslog} ALL --watch
try on your machine
The command you provided uses the AWS CLI (Command Line Interface) and the awslogs
command to retrieve and view log events in real-time from a log group named ${-var-log-syslog}
. Let's break down the command:
awslogs
: This is the command to interact with CloudWatch Logs using the AWS CLI.get
: Specifies that you want to retrieve log events.${-var-log-syslog}
: This is the log group name you want to retrieve log events from. The use of${-var-log-syslog}
suggests that the log group name is a variable defined somewhere else.ALL
: This parameter specifies that you want to retrieve log events for all log streams within the log group.--watch
: This flag enables real-time log streaming, meaning that the command will keep running and continuously display any new log events being generated, providing a live view.
By running this command, you can monitor the log events in the specified log group (${var-log-syslog}) in real-time.

never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
