Dumpio

Dokumentace

Open Settings with the button in the sidebar or from the command palette (Open settings). It has five tabs: Servers, Appearance, Data, Security, Shortcuts. Some actions apply immediately (see below); the other tab fields apply with the Save Changes button.

Servers

Each server row shows the color, name, the protocol badge (HTTP/TCP), host:port, and live status (running · N conn or stopped, refreshed roughly every 2 s).

Per-server actions:

  • Enable/Disable toggle – turns the server on/off (applies and syncs immediately).
  • Send test dump – sends a sample log dump (only when the server is running).
  • Edit / Delete.
  • Add Server – creates a server with the defaults New Server, localhost, 21234, color blue, active, protocol http.

Fields when adding/editing:

  • Name (required).
  • Availability – This computer (listens only on 127.0.0.1) or Network (listens on 0.0.0.0, exposed to the LAN). Choosing Network opens a confirmation that requires a shared token, see Security.
  • Port – 1–65535.
  • Protocol – HTTP (recommended) or TCP (legacy). The hint shows the resulting address (POST http://host:port/dumps or a raw TCP socket).
  • Color – blue, red, green, yellow, purple, pink, gray.

Validation: a network-exposed server requires a non-empty token; a duplicate host:port (across servers) is rejected.

Appearance

Setting Options Effect
Color scheme light / dark / system The app theme (system follows the OS)
Accent color blue, violet, emerald, rose, amber, cyan Recolors buttons, links, and active states
View mode detailed / compact How much detail each dump shows
List density comfortable / compact Row height in the list
Font size small / medium / large Base font size (14/16/18 px)
Editor Off, VS Code, VS Code Insiders, Cursor, PhpStorm, WebStorm, IntelliJ IDEA, Sublime Text, TextMate, Zed Enables clicking file:line locations. Saved per machine, applies immediately.

Data

Setting Default Meaning
Automatically save dumps to disk off Auto-save to dumps.json every 5 seconds
Force save dumps when application exits off Save all dumps before closing
Auto-start servers on launch on Start active servers when the app opens
Maximum dumps in memory 1000 (100–10000) Older dumps are discarded when the limit is reached

Storage & backups: Open data folder, Export settings, Import settings.

Danger zone:

  • Reset to defaults – restores the default appearance and data values (servers are kept); applies on save.
  • Clear all dumps – immediate and irreversible.

For storage details, see the Storage page.

Security

Setting Default Meaning
Access token (optional) empty (off) When set, every dump must carry it. The Generate button creates a Dio- + 48 hex-character token.
Max payload size (KB) 1024 Requests/messages above the limit are rejected (413 for HTTP; connection closed for TCP).
Rate limit (messages/second) 1000 Per client/connection; 0 disables it.

Token transport: HTTP uses Authorization: Bearer <token> or X-Dumpio-Token; TCP carries a token field inside the JSON. Details on the Security page.

Shortcuts

Read-only — an overview of the keyboard shortcuts. Shortcuts are fixed and not customizable. See the Viewer page.

Where settings are stored

All settings live in a settings.json file in the app's user-data folder (open it via Open data folder). New fields are merged with the defaults on read, so an upgrade preserves your configuration. A few display preferences (the chosen editor, filters, pinning) are stored in the browser's local storage rather than in settings.json.
