structured_log_cupertino 0.1.4

A Cupertino (iOS-style) in-app log viewer for structured_log, built on structured_log_flutter.

structured_log_cupertino

Читать на русском.

A ready-made Cupertino (iOS-style) log viewer for your Flutter app: open a screen — or dock a panel — and see what the app just logged, with search, filters and every entry's full context, the way iPhone and iPad apps present it.

Why

Something goes wrong while you're testing on an iPhone, and the explanation is in logs printed to an Xcode console you aren't attached to. This package puts those logs on a screen inside the app: every structured_log entry, newest first, searchable and filterable by level and category, with a tap to drill into an entry's full context and copy it into a bug report. Wiring it up is one extra sink and one widget.

Pick it for apps with an iOS look (CupertinoApp, or Cupertino screens inside a larger app). For a Material app take structured_log_material; for a Windows-style desktop app built on fluent_ui, structured_log_fluent. If none of the three matches your design system, build your own on structured_log_flutter — the skins share it, so filtering and pausing behave the same everywhere.

Features

Drop-in

• A screen or a panel — CupertinoLogViewerPage is a complete CupertinoPageScaffold with a "Logs" navigation bar (and the standard back button when pushed); CupertinoLogViewer is the same viewer with no page chrome, for a tab or a side panel.
• iPhone and iPad patterns — it measures its own width, not the window's: below 700 logical pixels a tap pushes the entry as its own screen via CupertinoPageRoute, as Mail and Settings do on iPhone; from 700 up, the list and a detail panel sit side by side, as on iPad, with the newest entry selected.

Finding the entry

• A live list, newest first — new entries appear as the app logs them.
• Search — a CupertinoSearchTextField over event names and every context value.
• Level filter — a CupertinoSlidingSegmentedControl: All, Debug+, Info+, Warning+, Error+.
• Category filter — a scrollable row of pill buttons built from the categories actually in the buffer, hidden while there are fewer than two; entries from adapters such as structured_log_dio (http) or structured_log_bloc (bloc) become a filter on their own.
• Pause and clear — freeze the list while you read; clear it to start a fresh reproduction.
• Familiar rows — a colored level dot, the event, the time and a category tag; a disclosure chevron where a tap drills in, a highlight where it selects.

Reading it

• Full context — level, time and event on top, then every other field as a key/value pair; when pushed, the event name is the screen's title.
• Copy — one tap puts the fields on the clipboard as key: value lines.
• Clear empty states — "No logs yet" when nothing was captured, "No logs match the current filter" with a "Clear filters" action when the filters hid everything.

Looks like your app

• Follows your theme — colors and typography come from CupertinoTheme and CupertinoColors, light and dark; only the level colors are fixed, and they are the same in every skin.
• No Material — the package uses Cupertino widgets and cupertino_icons only.
• Parts to compose your own layout — LogEntryTile, LogCategoryFilterBar, LogEntryDetailPanel and LogViewerEmptyState are public.

Where it fits

structured_log writes the entries; structured_log_flutter keeps the recent ones in memory and handles filtering and pausing; this package is the Cupertino face on top, a sibling of structured_log_material and structured_log_fluent. It works entirely inside your app, with no server; if you also ship logs to a self-hosted server with structured_log_remote_sync, the viewer keeps showing them locally.

Installation

dependencies:
  structured_log: ^0.3.0
  structured_log_flutter: ^0.1.2
  structured_log_cupertino: ^0.1.1

Within this monorepo, melos bootstrap resolves both internal packages to path dependencies instead:

dependencies:
  structured_log_flutter:
    path: ../structured_log_flutter
  structured_log_cupertino:
    path: ../structured_log_cupertino

Quick Start

import 'package:flutter/cupertino.dart';
import 'package:structured_log/structured_log.dart';
import 'package:structured_log_flutter/structured_log_flutter.dart';
import 'package:structured_log_cupertino/structured_log_cupertino.dart';

void main() {
  final buffer = LogBuffer();
  final controller = LogViewerController(buffer);

  StructlogConfiguration.configure(sinks: [
    LogSink(name: 'viewer', output: buffer.capture),
  ]);

  runApp(CupertinoApp(
    home: CupertinoLogViewerPage(controller: controller),
  ));
}

See example/ for a full runnable app (including web) — run it with flutter run -d chrome from that directory.

To embed the viewer inside existing page chrome instead of giving it the whole screen, use CupertinoLogViewer directly:

Row(
  children: [
    Expanded(child: MyAppContent()),
    SizedBox(
      width: 420,
      child: CupertinoLogViewer(controller: controller),
    ),
  ],
)

CupertinoLogViewer lays itself out from its top edge and keeps no safe area of its own. Under a translucent CupertinoNavigationBar — the default — wrap it in a SafeArea, as CupertinoLogViewerPage does, or its toolbar sits under the bar.

Localization

Every label the viewer draws — search placeholder, pause/clear, the level and category filters, the page title, both empty states, the detail view's heading and copy action — can be replaced. Two ways, which combine:

Ready-made English and Russian. Register the delegate from structured_log_flutter (re-exported here); the viewer then follows the app's locale. English keeps this package's own wording.

CupertinoApp(
  localizationsDelegates: const [
    LogViewerLocalizations.delegate,
    // ...the app's other delegates
  ],
  supportedLocales: const [Locale('en'), Locale('ru')],
  // ...
)

Your own labels, for any language or to change one phrase. A field you set wins over the delegate; a field you leave null falls back to the delegate, then to the English default.

CupertinoLogViewer(
  controller: controller,
  labels: LogViewerLabels(
    searchHint: context.l10n.logsSearchHint,
    levelFilterLabel: (level) =>
        level == null ? context.l10n.allLevels : '${level.name}+',
  ),
)

No flutter_localizations or intl is needed for either.

Confirming a copy. The viewer copies an entry's context silently; pass onContextCopied to show your own confirmation. It is called after the clipboard write succeeds, never on failure:

CupertinoLogViewer(
  controller: controller,
  // iOS has no snack bar: confirm the way the rest of your app does.
  onContextCopied: (entry) => showCopiedToast(context),
)

Screenshots

CupertinoLogViewerPage as the full screen, on a wide/iPad-size viewport — list and the non-modal detail panel side by side:

CupertinoLogViewer embedded in a side panel next to other app content — the same widget, no page chrome of its own:

On a phone-width screen — the mobile-style default — the list is on its own, and tapping an entry pushes LogEntryDetailPanel as its own screen via CupertinoPageRoute, the standard iOS "drill into detail" pattern:

API Reference

Widget	Description
CupertinoLogViewer({required LogViewerController controller, LogViewerLabels labels, onContextCopied})	The log viewer as an embeddable widget (no page chrome)
CupertinoLogViewerPage({required LogViewerController controller, LogViewerLabels labels, onContextCopied})	The full screen
LogCategoryFilterBar({required LogViewerController controller, String? allLabel, LogViewerLabels labels})	The category-filter pill row
LogEntryTile({required entry, required onTap, bool selected = false, bool showsDisclosureIndicator = true})	One list row
LogEntryDetailPanel({required entry, labels, onContextCopied})	The full-context detail content (pushed or side-by-side)
LogViewerEmptyState({required hasLogs, required onClearFilters, LogViewerLabels labels})	The two-variant empty state
logLevelColor(LogLevel level, Brightness brightness)	The canonical level-indicator color — defined once in structured_log_flutter, shared by every skin

entry throughout is the Map<String, dynamic> shape structured_log produces directly — no separate typed model.
