Console Log Support

Syntax Highlighting & Hyperlinks are supported also for console output across the IDE, similar to how log files are viewed in the editor.

Supported Consoles

  • Run/Debug
  • Build tool window (during & after build)
  • Services view (Docker etc)
  • VCS Console
  • Misc (e.g. Database, etc.)

Features

Syntax Highlighting

Log levels, timestamps, categories, and message constructs are highlighted using the same color scheme as log files. Colors are fully customizable — see Settings - Customizing Color Scheme.

File paths, URLs, and log categories/stack traces are converted to clickable hyperlinks:

  • ⌘+B | Ctrl+B or click to follow
  • Stack traces navigate to source code (Java/JVM only)

Toggling Console Display

Each console has a View Console as Log toggle button on the relevant view Title Bar and on the Find Action (⌘+⇧+A | Ctrl+⇧+A) screen. It is on by default.

Conosle output as log content

Note: Log highlighting and links are added on top of Jetbrains IDE features, so the behavior is not consistent with how log files are displayed on the editor.
