Hi everyone,  
I want to see the logs for all my flows(debugs/events of my flow) in Node-Red.  
Can anyone help me with any information.

I am running my Node-red in my local machine.

So, please share me the path where do the logs of flows are saved in Node-Red environment.

Thanks.

Most versions of Linux use systemd to run services. As such you can use `journalctl` to show the logs.  
Docker has its own logs and log viewing commands I think.

If you installed using the [Debian/Ubuntu/Pi installation script](https://nodered.org/docs/getting-started/raspberrypi) then the command  
`node-red-log`  
uses journalctl to display the log. If you did not install that way then something like  
`sudo journalctl -f -n 50 -u nodered`  
should get you going.  
Also they are written to /var/log/syslog, but mixed up with all the other system messages.

Hi Colin,  
the path provided by you is container path or local machine path?
