os log entry log

Returns log entries from the macOS local OS log store, generated since the last system boot and filtered using the provided string.

The search string must be formatted as follows: "processName;sensitivity;entry"

Where:

• "processName" is the name of the process to filter by.
• "sensitivity" can be "s" (case-sensitive and diacritics-sensitive), "c" (case-insensitive), "d" (diacritics-insensitive), or "cd" (case-insensitive and diacritics-insensitive).
• "entry" is part of the message to search within.

If more than 1000 matching entries are found, only the most recent 1000 will be returned.

Returns log entries from the local OS log store, generated during the specified number of days before the current time and filtered using the provided string.

The search string must be formatted as follows: "numberOfDays;processName;sensitivity;entry"

Where:

• "numberOfDays" is the number of past days to consider. Only entries from the last 99 days can be retrieved.
• "processName" is the name of the process to filter by.
• "sensitivity" can be "s" (case-sensitive and diacritics-sensitive), "c" (case-insensitive), "d" (diacritics-insensitive), or "cd" (case-insensitive and diacritics-insensitive).
• "entry" is part of the message to search within.

If more than 1000 matching entries are found, only the most recent 1000 will be returned.

Returns an integer corresponding to the activity identifier associated with the specified OS log entry. This value can be used to correlate log entries generated within the same execution flow or by the same activity.

Returns the category associated with the specified OS log entry. This string represents the classification or type of event within the macOS logging system, helping to categorize events based on their nature or significance.

Returns the composed message associated with the specified OS log entry. This string contains a detailed description or message generated by the process, providing context about the specific event or state, often including method names or key event data.

Returns the log level associated with the specified OS log entry. This string indicates the severity or importance of the log message (e.g. Default, Debug, Info, Error), helping to filter and prioritize log data during analysis.

Returns the process identifier (PID) associated with the specified OS log entry. This integer uniquely identifies the process that generated the log entry, allowing for tracking and correlation of events related to that specific process on macOS.

Returns the name of the process associated with the specified OS log entry. This string indicates which process was active when the log entry was generated, providing insight into the application or system component involved in the event.

Returns the name of the sender associated with the specified OS log entry. This string indicates the name of the binary image that made the entry, providing insight into the origin of the event.

Returns the name of the subsystem associated with the specified OS log entry. This string identifies the subsystem or functional component within macOS that generated the log entry, providing insight into the area of the system involved in the event.

Returns the thread identifier (TID) associated with the specified OS log entry. This integer uniquely identifies the thread within the process that generated the log entry, helping to correlate events and track the execution flow at the thread level.

Returns the timestamp representing exactly when the specified OS log entry was generated on the local macOS system. This includes the date, time, and time zone. This timestamp reflects the event's actual occurrence time on the system.
