When you're building Lambda functions with CDK, you can't always guess the log prefix, and even if you can, it's a bit unweildy.
For example, with a CDK stack with logical ID "NodeCountExampleAwsLambdaStack" and a Lambda function called "CountGetFunction", CDK generates a CloudWatch Log Group of:
Note how "NodeCountExampleAwsLambdaStack" is truncated to "NodeCountExampleAwsLambda". There are also limits on the function logical ID.
To save me from having to use
saw groups | grep CountGet
, then copy / paste the outputted group name so that I can runsaw get <groupname>
, I thought it would be helpful to be able to "fuzzy search" the group name.So in this PR, I've implemented a basic "contains substring" search for the log group that's only triggered when a
--fuzzy
flag is set.You can get the logs directly with:
Compared to:
Obviously, it costs a CloudWatch Log API call or two if you use the fuzzy search flag, but it's not the default behaviour so won't affect anyone that doesn't use it.
