	Just force the beginMungeTag() endMungeTag() macros on users, by hiding it under the covers. It really simplies things for users.

# Logging
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Logging by Kubernetes Components
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Kubernetes components, such as kubelet and apiserver, use the [glog](https://godoc.org/github.com/golang/glog) logging library.  Developer conventions for logging severity are described in [docs/devel/logging.md](../devel/logging.md).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Examining the logs of running containers
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The logs of a running container may be fetched using the command `kubectl logs`. For example, given
 | 
						|
this pod specification [counter-pod.yaml](../../examples/blog-logging/counter-pod.yaml), which has a container which writes out some text to standard
 | 
						|
output every second. (You can find different pod specifications [here](logging-demo/).)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<!-- BEGIN MUNGE: EXAMPLE ../../examples/blog-logging/counter-pod.yaml -->
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```yaml
 | 
						|
apiVersion: v1
 | 
						|
kind: Pod
 | 
						|
metadata:
 | 
						|
  name: counter
 | 
						|
spec:
 | 
						|
  containers:
 | 
						|
  - name: count
 | 
						|
    image: ubuntu:14.04
 | 
						|
    args: [bash, -c, 
 | 
						|
           'for ((i = 0; ; i++)); do echo "$i: $(date)"; sleep 1; done']
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
[Download example](../../examples/blog-logging/counter-pod.yaml)
 | 
						|
<!-- END MUNGE: EXAMPLE ../../examples/blog-logging/counter-pod.yaml -->
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
we can run the pod:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```console
 | 
						|
$ kubectl create -f ./counter-pod.yaml
 | 
						|
pods/counter
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
and then fetch the logs:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```console
 | 
						|
$ kubectl logs counter
 | 
						|
0: Tue Jun  2 21:37:31 UTC 2015
 | 
						|
1: Tue Jun  2 21:37:32 UTC 2015
 | 
						|
2: Tue Jun  2 21:37:33 UTC 2015
 | 
						|
3: Tue Jun  2 21:37:34 UTC 2015
 | 
						|
4: Tue Jun  2 21:37:35 UTC 2015
 | 
						|
5: Tue Jun  2 21:37:36 UTC 2015
 | 
						|
...
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If a pod has more than one container then you need to specify which container's log files should
 | 
						|
be fetched e.g.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```console
 | 
						|
$ kubectl logs kube-dns-v3-7r1l9 etcd
 | 
						|

 | 
						|

 | 
						|

 | 
						|

 | 
						|

 | 
						|
2015/06/23 04:51:03 etcdserver: start to snapshot (applied: 60006, lastsnap: 50005)
 | 
						|
2015/06/23 04:51:03 etcdserver: compacted log at index 60006
 | 
						|

## Cluster level logging to Google Cloud Logging
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The getting started guide [Cluster Level Logging to Google Cloud Logging](../getting-started-guides/logging.md)
 | 
						|
explains how container logs are ingested into [Google Cloud Logging](https://cloud.google.com/logging/docs/)
 | 
						|
and shows how to query the ingested logs.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Cluster level logging with Elasticsearch and Kibana
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The getting started guide [Cluster Level Logging with Elasticsearch and Kibana](../getting-started-guides/logging-elasticsearch.md)
 | 
						|
describes how to ingest cluster level logs into Elasticsearch and view them using Kibana.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Ingesting Application Log Files
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Cluster level logging only collects the standard output and standard error output of the applications
 | 
						|
running in containers. The guide [Collecting log files within containers with Fluentd](http://releases.k8s.io/HEAD/contrib/logging/fluentd-sidecar-gcp/README.md) explains how the log files of applications can also be ingested into Google Cloud logging.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Known issues
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Kubernetes does log rotation for Kubernetes components and docker containers. The command `kubectl logs` currently only read the latest logs, not all historical ones.
