About Rainbow Dog
Rainbow Dog colors the text in Datadog's Logs table based on each cell's content. The color is derived from a hash of the cell's full text, so identical values — trace IDs, transaction IDs, hosts, services, versions — always appear in the same color, in every row, session and query. Repeated values and patterns become visible at a glance instead of requiring you to read and compare strings.
Features:
• Deterministic colors: the same text always gets the same color.
• Built for Datadog's virtualized table: live tail, scrolling, filtering and column resizing are recolored immediately.
• Colors are derived from the full cell value even when a column is truncated, so a value keeps its color at any column width.
• Detects light and dark themes automatically and constrains colors for readability on each.
• Lightweight: a new log row is processed in a fraction of a millisecond, and only Logs pages are touched.
Privacy:
• No permissions, no network requests, no analytics. Cell text is read locally to compute a color and never leaves your browser.
Supported regions: US1, US3, US5, EU1, AP1, AP2, UK1, US1-FED, US2-FED.
Tip: if you open Logs by navigating inside Datadog without a page load, refresh the Logs page once so the extension activates.
