awslogs is a Python command-line tool for querying log groups, streams, and events from Amazon CloudWatch Logs. It aggregates events across streams with human-friendly time filtering, colored output, and pseudo-realtime watching that pipes well into tools like grep.

Use cases

• tail cloudwatch logs from the terminal
• grep errors across multiple cloudwatch log streams
• list cloudwatch log groups and streams
• filter cloudwatch events by time range like '2h ago'
• watch new cloudwatch log events in realtime

When to choose

• you want a fast terminal-based alternative to the AWS console for CloudWatch Logs
• you need to aggregate and filter logs across many streams with unix pipes
• you prefer human-friendly time filters over raw timestamps

When to avoid

• you need a GUI or dashboard for log analysis
• you use a cloud provider other than AWS
• you need long-term log storage or alerting rather than querying
