tip

FEATURE: expose the following metrics at /metrics page:

Released at 2023-07-20

FEATURE: add support for data ingestion via Promtail (aka default log shipper for Grafana Loki). See these and these docs.

Released at 2023-07-17

FEATURE: support short form of _time filters over the last X minutes/hours/days/etc. For example, _time:5m is a short form for _time:(now-5m, now], which matches logs with timestamps for the last 5 minutes. See these docs for details.
FEATURE: add ability to specify offset for the selected time range. For example, _time:5m offset 1h is equivalent to _time:(now-5m-1h, now-1h]. See these docs for details.
FEATURE: LogsQL: replace exact_prefix("...") with exact("..."*). This makes it consistent with i() filter, which can accept phrases and prefixes, e.g. i("phrase") and i("phrase"*). See these docs.
