Name

Text Line Highlighter

Version

1.0

Description

Highlights lines using regex's or simple string matching.

Details

This plugin highlights lines that match a pattern.

When using this plugin the input stream will be paused until a new line char (\n) is found. Then the line will be evalulated to see if matches a filter. If the line matches a filter it will be colored according to one of the 8 color attribs.

This does make it look like there are no incoming bytes until a full line comes in, so this plugin does not work well with interactive prompts. It is meant to be used with a device that just streams log messages that you want to highline.

Filters

You set the filters in settings. You can access the filters in "Settings->Terminal->Data Processing" then click on "Text Line Highlighter" and press the "Settings" button.

Matching

You can match lines based on simple string matching or a regular expression. The plugin supports 3 simple matching sets (each of which can match start of line, contains, and lines that end with the string). There is also support for 5 different regular expressions.

Color attribs

When you setup a filter you can select from 8 different color attribs to highlight the line with.

Each color set include the forground color, background color, if the text will be underlined, overlined, have a line through it, bold, italic, or is outlined.
