type Config struct {
	// Filter defines a simple substring to match against log lines (case-insensitive).
	// If set, only lines containing this substring will be emitted.
	Filter string

	// Exclude defines a substring that will cause log lines to be dropped.
	// This is evaluated before other filtering mechanisms to drop noisy logs early.
	Exclude string

	// RegexFilter specifies a regular expression used to filter log lines.
	// If set, only lines matching the regular expression will be emitted.
	// This provides fine-grained control for power-users over standard substring matching.
	RegexFilter *regexp.Regexp

	// ContainerFilter specifies a regular expression used to filter which containers
	// are monitored. If a container's name does not match this regex, its log stream
	// is never initialized, saving goroutines and memory.
	ContainerFilter *regexp.Regexp

	// TailLines defines the number of lines to show from the end of the logs
	// when a new container stream is initialized (e.g., "10", "all").
	TailLines string

	// Since restricts log collection to logs generated after a specific timestamp
	// or duration (e.g., "2013-01-02T13:23:37" or "42m").
	Since string

	// Output is the file path where logs should be persisted. If empty, logs
	// are only printed to stdout.
	Output string

	// JsonOutput indicates whether the aggregator should format the output as
	// structured JSON strings instead of human-readable colored text.
	// Highly recommended for machine-processing or integrations with ELK/Splunk.
	JsonOutput bool

	// TimeFormat specifies the Go time format string used when displaying
	// human-readable timestamps (default: "15:04:05.000").
	TimeFormat string

	// BufferLength controls the size of the internal log channel.
	// A larger buffer prevents blocking the Docker stream readers during
	// bursts of high log volume.
	BufferLength int

	// Colors holds the palette used to color-code container names in the terminal.
	// The aggregator cycles through this palette to assign consistent colors
	// to individual containers.
	Colors []*color.Color

	// Deduplicate enables the spam-prevention mechanism.
	// When true, consecutive identical log messages from the same container
	// are dropped to keep the terminal output clean.
	Deduplicate bool

	// Redact enables the automatic redaction of sensitive information.
	// When true, emails, IPv4 addresses, and tokens are replaced with "***".
	Redact bool

	// ShowTimestamps indicates whether the Docker log streams should include
	// RFC3339 timestamps. Note that this is different from the local aggregation
	// timestamp shown in the human-readable output.
	ShowTimestamps bool

	// NoColor disables all ANSI color codes in the terminal output.
	// Useful for piping to files, grep, or running in CI environments.
	NoColor bool
