# Multi Pod Logs Lens Extension
A [Lens](https://k8slens.dev) (or [OpenLens](https://github.com/lensapp/lens)) extension that enables you to see logs from multiple pods *(and multiple containers within the pod)* on Kubernetes.
## 🚧 Requirements
- Lens (or OpenLens) `>= 6.0.0`
- [stern](https://github.com/stern/stern/releases) `>= 1.30.0`
> ⚠️ This extension uses `stern` under the hood, so it needs to be installed on your computer for the extension to work.
> If you don't know how to install it you can follow [these steps](STERN.md).
## 🧰 Installing
Just make sure Lens is running, and follow these simple steps:
1. Go to Extensions view (`Menu -> File -> Extensions`)
2. Enter the name of this extension, `@andrea-falco/lens-multi-pod-logs`
3. Click on the **Install** button
4. Make sure the extension is enabled
---
## 🚀 Features
After completing the installation, you will see a new action **Multi Pod Logs** for the menu below:
- Deployments
- StatefulSets
- ReplicaSets
- DaemonSets
The new action will open a new terminal where all the logs coming from all the containers of all the pods of the resource will be shown.
## ⚙️ Preferences
Some extension behaviors and parameters can be adjusted from the Lens preferences page, in the appropriate section dedicated to the extension:
## 🎨 Colored logs
If you're using Windows 10/11 *(and PowerShell as terminal in Lens)* and you don't see colored pod logs, you can enable colors running this command:
```
Set-ItemProperty HKCU:\Console VirtualTerminalLevel -Type DWORD 1
```
Then restart Lens.

## Upgrading
To upgrade to a newer release, go to the Extensions view, uninstall the extension, and then re-install it again.
