Console

View server logs and send commands from the browser.

The Console view gives you direct access to your game server's output and lets you send commands — all from the COSY web interface.

Viewing Logs

The console displays real-time log output from your game server container. Logs are streamed via WebSocket, so they appear instantly without refreshing the page.

Log data is also persisted in Loki (COSY's log aggregation backend), so you can scroll back through historical logs even after a server restart.

Sending Commands

You can type commands directly into the console input field. By default, commands are sent to the game server process via Docker attach (stdin).

If RCON is configured, commands are sent via the RCON protocol instead, which provides structured responses displayed in the log output.

Use Cases

  • Monitoring — Watch server startup, player connections, errors
  • Administration — Run game commands (whitelist, ban, op, etc.)
  • Debugging — Inspect error messages and stack traces when something goes wrong
