inspect log
Query, read, and convert logs.
Inspect supports two log formats: ‘eval’ which is a compact, high performance binary format and ‘json’ which represents logs as JSON.
The default format is ‘eval’. You can change this by setting the INSPECT_LOG_FORMAT environment variable or using the –log-format command line option.
The ‘log’ commands enable you to read Inspect logs uniformly as JSON no matter their physical storage format, and also enable you to read only the headers (everything but the samples) from log files, which is useful for very large logs.
