Only changes of the IP address or other information are interesting.

• Rows with the same content should be combined to two rows
• with the additional information, how many times it occurred.
• The first and last timestamp should be preserved.

Determine e.g. the hue of the background color of a row from the IP address. It might be best to add a sufficiently high offset to the hue value of the previous IP address and use an offset that causes to traverse all possible hue values before repeating. Error rows should be well discernible from these.

When recovering from errors, the first line with an IP is also deleted:

14.09.2022, 14:58:47.244 (103): xxx.yyy.zzz.www (00.0000,00.0000)
... repeated 61 times ...
14.09.2022, 14:48:12.383 (238): Error
14.09.2022, 14:37:48.728 (78): xxx.yyy.zzz.www (00.0000,00.0000)

The first timestamp after an error is valuable information to be kept.

Add input fields to change

• URL,
• fields of interest,
• interval between requests,
• (optional) HTTP method (GET, POST, PUT(?)),
• and possibly more.
  Defaults shall be the original ones.

This turns logip into a more general API monitoring tool. New name? logAPI (pronounced surprisingly similar), apiMonitor, ?
