Server Log Extension

This extension enables aggregation of server-side logs to a new \"Server Log\" panel in Devtools.

The header-format of the Chrome Logger extension (by Craig Campbell) is supported for backwards compatibility - this extension will work as a drop-in replacement for Chrome Logger, but improves the experience by clearly indicating the source of log-entries (from multiple async requests) and by separating the server-side from the client-side log (in the \"Console\" panel) into a dedicated \"Server Log\" panel.

Existing server-side libraries can progressively move from the X-ChromeLogger-Data header format to the new X-ServerLog-Location header, which avoids buffer overrun issues in Chrome, NGINX, Apache and probably others.

New server-side libraries can use plain HTML for diagnostic logs, which provides developers with complete freedom to format and present log-data in any way you wish.

If you fork or update an existing server-side library (or create your own!) please open an issue, and we'll list your library!
