A large project could have more than a couple of hundred tasks and debug log could grow more than 40mb. It is not an easy task for log viewer or even developer himself. This tool chops huge gradle debug log into smaller pieces by tasks.

Usage

./gradlew build --debug > hugelog.txt
logchopper -o firewood/ hugelog.txt

or you could chop log via pipe:

./gradlew build --debug | logchopper

Chopped files are prefixed with index and named by task name:

...
0361-:app-features:item-ui:generateDebugSources.txt
0362-:application:processGlobalDebugResources.txt
0363-:application:prepareLintJar.txt
0364-:application:generateGlobalDebugSources.txt
0365-:application:compileGlobalDebugNdk.txt
0366-:application:processGlobalDebugJavaRes.txt
0367-:app-model:kaptGenerateStubsDebugKotlin.txt
...
