Logbook

This Package helps keeping track of what happens in your Laravel Application when it gets used Exceptions, Model events, incoming requests - all kind of information to help understand how users are using the application and beeing able to act accordingly.

Basic Usage

use AwStudio\Logbook\Facades\Logbook;

class Action
{
    public function execute()
    {
        Logbook::log(['action_executed' => static::class]);
    }
}

Logging Model Changes

To track changes made on a model, just add the LogsEvents trait to your model:

class Post extends Model
{
    use LogsEvents;
}

Logging requests

class PostController extends Model
{
    public function store(Request $request) {
        Logbook::request();
    }
}

Grouping Logs in a Batch

Using Logbook::open() you can group multiple logs into one batch. All logs performed, while a batch was opened will receive the same unique batch identifier and optionally batch name:

class PostController extends Model
{
    public function store(Request $request) {
        Logbook::open(); // or Logbook::open('Store new Post')
        Logbook::request();

        // Do your magic

        Logbook::close();
    }
}

Logging Exceptions

Easily keep track of exceptions thrown in your application:

// App\Exceptions
class Handler extends ExceptionHandler
{
    use LogExceptions;

    public function register(): void
    {
        $this->reportable(function (Throwable $e) {
            Logbook::exception($e);
        });
    }
}

As Laravel doesn't report all Exceptions, like AuthenticationExceptions, ValidationExceptions and many more, this trat provides a propety shouldLog which you may use to define Exceptions that should still be logged, event if they are not reported:

protected $shouldLog = [
    \Illuminate\Validation\ValidationException::class,
];

Logging Outgoing Mails

// App/Providers/EventServiceProvider
class EventServiceProvider {
    use LogsOutgoingMessagesog;
    public function boot(){
        $this->logOutGoingMessages();
    }
}

When the channel is Set to api, this will only log the messageID and subject to the API to keep the user details secret but will also create a local log copy with which will also contain the messageID for better traceability.

Using the API Channel

By default, this package provides two different channels file and api. When using the API Channel the logs are sent to the central Logbook API. For this to work, you need to provide a LOGBOOK_PROJEKT_TOKEN in your .env file.
