Filtering Syntax
Apply filters with an intuitive, human-friendly search.
Inspector filter is designed for human-entered text. Filter queries can be saved and reused with a click so understand how to search in your transactions stream could give you a lot of free time later.
Why use filters
You can visualize performance statistics of a sub-part of your system and not only for the whole application. Applying a filtering logic to your Monitoring dashboard you can create a custom view to keep specific parts of your app under control.
Let me show you a real world example.
Suppose to have a list of transactions executed by your application.
We want isolate the "console commands" to understand if the background work done by your application is going in the right way.
Type "artisan" in the filter box and push enter.
Simple Text
By default the text used as query will filter the transactions list by name.
Remeber to use double quotes:
Wildcard
Inspector supports single and multiple character wildcard searches within single terms (not within phrase queries).
To perform a single character wildcard search use the "?" symbol.
To perform a multiple character wildcard search use the "*" symbol.
Operators
Boolean operators allow terms to be combined through logic operators. AND, OR, NOT operators are supported (Note: operators must be ALL CAPS).
OR
The OR operator is the default conjunction operator. This means that if there is no Boolean operator between two terms, the OR operator is used.
To search for transactions that contain either "GET /" or just "GET" use the query:
Or
AND
The AND operator matches records where both terms exist in the event fields.
NOT
The NOT operator excludes documents that contain the term after NOT.
Range
You can filter both numeric and string value using range:
Escaping Special Characters
You need to consider special characters all the items that could be interfere with syntax:
:
*
?
(
)
To escape these character use the \ before the character. For example to search for route:list use the query:
