Built in Rust.\n\n## Status\n\n0.1.0 (alpha). Usable for `read` / `write` / `openat` tracing on Linux x86_64 and aarch64. Filter DSL is minimal (`--syscall` glob, `--fail`). Expect breaking changes before 1.0.\n\n## Supported syscalls\n\n`openat`, `read`, and `write` are decoded with named arguments and pretty / JSON output. Other syscalls pass through with a `syscall_\u003cnr\u003e` placeholder name and raw register values.\n\n## Install\n\nPre-built binaries are published on the [Releases page](https://github.com/ErickJ3/loi/releases).\n\nPick the tarball matching your platform:\n\n- `loi-v0.1.0-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.gz` (most x86_64 Linux distros, glibc)\n- `loi-v0.1.0-aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.gz` (Linux on ARM64, glibc)\n- `loi-v0.1.0-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz` (static build, Alpine, scratch images)\n\n```sh\nTAG=v0.1.0\nTARGET=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu\ncurl -L \"https://github.com/ErickJ3/loi/releases/download/${TAG}/loi-${TAG}-${TARGET}.tar.gz\" | tar -xz\nsudo mv \"loi-${TAG}-${TARGET}/loi\" /usr/local/bin/loi\n```\n\nVerify the download against `SHA256SUMS` from the same release page:\n\n```sh\ncurl -LO \"https://github.com/ErickJ3/loi/releases/download/v0.1.0/SHA256SUMS\"\nsha256sum -c SHA256SUMS --ignore-missing\n```\n\n## Goals\n\n- Structured output: JSON-lines as a first-class citizen\n- Ergonomic filters: `--syscall 'open*'`, `--fail`, `--path '*.conf'`\n- Robust follow-fork\n- Container/namespace aware\n- Sane defaults, colored output\n\n## Building\n\n```bash\ncargo build --release\n```\n\n## Development\n\n```bash\ncargo ci          # fmt check + clippy -D warnings + tests\ncargo lint        # clippy only\ncargo xtask test  # tests only\n```\n\n## Changelog\n\n`CHANGELOG.md` is generated from git history by [git-cliff](https://git-cliff.org/) using `cliff.toml`.\n\n```bash\ncargo install git-cliff               # one-time\ncargo xtask changelog-unreleased      # preview unreleased section\ncargo xtask changelog                 # rewrite CHANGELOG.md\n```\n\n## License\n\nLicensed under either of:\n\n- MIT license ([LICENSE-MIT](LICENSE-MIT))\n- Apache License, Version 2.0 ([LICENSE-APACHE](LICENSE-APACHE))\n\nat your option.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ferickj3%2Floi","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Ferickj3%2Floi","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ferickj3%2Floi/lists"}
