Laravel Telegram Log Channel
============================

[](#laravel-telegram-log-channel)

A simple Laravel package to send log messages to a Telegram chat.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require arhx/telegram-log-channel
```

The service provider will be automatically registered.

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

1. Add the necessary environment variables to your `.env` file:

    ```
    TELEGRAM_LOG_BOT_TOKEN=your_bot_token_here
    TELEGRAM_LOG_CHAT_ID=your_chat_id_here
    ```

    - `TELEGRAM_LOG_BOT_TOKEN`: Your Telegram bot's token.
    - `TELEGRAM_LOG_CHAT_ID`: The ID of the chat where logs should be sent.
    - `TELEGRAM_LOG_LEVEL`: (Optional) The minimum log level to be sent (defaults to `error`).
    - `TELEGRAM_LOG_THROTTLE`: (Optional) Number of seconds to suppress duplicate messages (defaults to `600` = 10 minutes). Set to `0` to disable throttling.
2. (Optional) The package comes with a default configuration for the `telegram` log channel. If you need to customize it, you can add your own channel configuration to `config/logging.php`:

    ```
    'channels' => [
        // ... other channels

        'telegram' => [
            'driver' => 'telegram',
            'token' => env('TELEGRAM_LOG_BOT_TOKEN'),
            'chat_id' => env('TELEGRAM_LOG_CHAT_ID'),
            'level' => env('TELEGRAM_LOG_LEVEL', 'debug'), // Example of overriding the level
        ],
    ],
    ```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

To receive Telegram notifications for your logs, add the `telegram` channel to your chosen logging stack in `config/logging.php`.

If the environment variables `TELEGRAM_LOG_BOT_TOKEN` and `TELEGRAM_LOG_CHAT_ID` are not set, the `telegram` channel will gracefully fallback to a `NullHandler`, meaning no logs will be sent to Telegram and the application will not crash.

For example, to add it to the default `stack` channel:

```
'stack' => [
    'driver' => 'stack',
    'channels' => ['daily', 'telegram'], // Add 'telegram' here
    'ignore_exceptions' => false,
],
```

Now, any log message that meets the configured level will be sent to your Telegram chat.

Spam Throttling (Duplicate Suppression)
---------------------------------------

[](#spam-throttling-duplicate-suppression)

To avoid flooding your chat with the same error over and over, the package throttles **identical** messages. After a message is sent, any identical message is suppressed for `TELEGRAM_LOG_THROTTLE` seconds (defaults to **600 = 10 minutes**).

Two messages are considered identical when their **level**, **message text**, and **source file:line** match. Volatile data (request body, query params, timestamps) is intentionally excluded from the comparison so that genuinely repeated errors collapse into a single notification.

```
TELEGRAM_LOG_THROTTLE=600   # suppress duplicates for 10 minutes
TELEGRAM_LOG_THROTTLE=0     # disable throttling entirely
```

This relies on your application's configured cache store (`Cache` facade). If the cache is unavailable for any reason, the package fails open and the message is still sent.

> **Tip for Laravel 12:** You might just need to update your `.env` file to include `telegram` in the logging stack:
>
> ```
> LOG_STACK=daily,telegram
> ```

Queue Job Failure Logging
-------------------------

[](#queue-job-failure-logging)

The package automatically sends a Telegram notification when a queued job fails. This feature is **enabled by default** and works out of the box with Laravel's queue system (Laravel 10, 11, 12).

To disable it, set the following in your `.env`:

```
TELEGRAM_LOG_QUEUE_FAILURES=false
```

Each failed job notification includes:

- Job class name
- Exception message
- Queue connection name
- Queue name

> **Note:** The notification respects your configured `TELEGRAM_LOG_LEVEL`. Since failures are logged at the `error` level, make sure your level is set to `error` or lower (e.g., `debug`, `info`, `warning`, `error`).

### Using config:cache

[](#using-configcache)

If you use `php artisan config:cache` (recommended in production), you must publish the package config so the env variable is captured at cache time:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=telegram-log-channel-config
```

This creates `config/telegram-log-channel.php` in your application. The `TELEGRAM_LOG_QUEUE_FAILURES` env variable will then be read correctly even when the config cache is active.

Testing
-------

[](#testing)

### In a Laravel Application

[](#in-a-laravel-application)

After installing the package in your Laravel app, you can test your configuration by running:

```
php artisan telegram-log:test
```

> **Note:** This command sends a message with the `error` level. If your `TELEGRAM_LOG_LEVEL` is set to a higher level (e.g., `emergency`), the test message will not be sent.

### During Package Development

[](#during-package-development)

If you are developing the package, you can run the command directly from the root:

1. Copy `.env.example` (if available) to `.env` or create it manually with your bot token and chat ID.
2. Run:

```
php artisan telegram-log:test
```
