chipmunk

Chipmunk is a free, open-source desktop application for inspecting, searching, and analyzing large log files. Built with Rust, it handles files of several gigabytes without unnecessary copying or extensive memory consumption. Users can examine local logs or collect live data through TCP, UDP, serial connections, and command output. Its search engine supports reusable filters, color-coded results, and continuous updates as new data arrives. The application understands automotive diagnostic formats, including DLT, SOME/IP, PCAP, and PCAPNG traces. Embedded images, audio, video, and text attachments can be inspected or exported. Regular expression extraction enables real-time metrics and graphical analysis. Chipmunk helps developers and engineers troubleshoot software behavior, communication problems, and complex system events.
