With Kubetail, you can view logs from all the containers in a workload merged into a single, chronological timeline, delivered to your terminal or browser. Kubetail read files on-disk and doesn't ship data to an external cloud service so your data stays private from end-to-end. After installing Kubetail, start the web dashboard using the serve subcommand: `kubetail serve` This command will open in your default browser. You can also tail logs in your terminal: `kubetail logs -f deploy/app` Have fun tailing your logs! ### Package name * kubetail --- ### License * Apache-2.0 --- ### Last updated * 16 June 2026 - latest/stable --- ### Websites * [www.kubetail.com](https://www.kubetail.com "https://www.kubetail.com") --- ### Contact * [github.com/kubetail-org/kubetail/issues](https://github.com/kubetail-org/kubetail/issues "https://github.com/kubetail-org/kubetail/issues") --- ### Donations * [github.com/sponsors/kubetail-org](https://github.com/sponsors/kubetail-org "https://github.com/sponsors/kubetail-org") --- ### Source code * [github.com/kubetail-org/kubetail](https://github.com/kubetail-org/kubetail "https://github.com/kubetail-org/kubetail") --- ### Report a bug * [github.com/kubetail-org/kubetail/issues](https://github.com/kubetail-org/kubetail/issues "https://github.com/kubetail-org/kubetail/issues") --- ##### Report a Snap Store violation * [Report this Snap](https://snapcraft.io/install/kubetail/centos#report-snap-modal) --- ## Enable snaps on CentOS and install Kubetail Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build.

The EPEL repository can be added to your system with the following command: ``` sudo yum install epel-release ``` Snap can now be installed as follows: ``` sudo yum install snapd ``` Once installed, the *systemd* unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled: ``` sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket ``` To enable *classic* snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between `/var/lib/snapd/snap` and `/snap`: ``` sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap ``` Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly. ### Install Kubetail To install Kubetail, simply use the following command: ``` sudo snap install kubetail ``` ### Other popular snaps… [See more...](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) [See more in Featured](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) ### More things to do… #### [Get the snap store](https://snapcraft.io/snap-store) Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap. #### [Learn more about snaps](https://snapcraft.io/docs) Interested to find out more about snaps?
