Events

Events are the things Toft noticed going wrong with your app: a failed deploy, a crash, a restart loop, a job or scheduled run that failed or was skipped, a deploy refused by policy.

They appear under Recent failures on the Logs tab, newest first, and from the CLI:

toft events
toft events --since 24h --severity error
toft events --kind deploy_failed --limit 50

Why not just the log

The log is what your process printed; an event is what Toft observed. If a scheduled run never started, only the events say so.

Every event has a time, a kind and a severity, and you can filter on each. An event is recorded whether or not anybody was emailed about it, and a resolved one stays in the list.

Common kinds	Meaning
Deploy failed	The build or start of a deploy failed.
Crashed	The workload went down.
Restart loop	It restarted repeatedly in a short period.
Memory limit / Out of memory	It was killed for memory, or stopped after repeated kills.
Not restarting	Toft stopped trying to restart it.
Job run failed / Scheduled job failed	A run exited with an error.

Events are pruned after a period your administrator sets.
