Zero configuration logging of Requests and Responses to database or custom drivers in Laravel applications - no more issues debugging customer support requests.

------------

[](#installation)

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require bilfeldt/laravel-request-logger
```

Publish and run the migrations with:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Bilfeldt\RequestLogger\RequestLoggerServiceProvider" --tag="request-logger-migrations"
php artisan migrate
```

You can publish the config file with:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Bilfeldt\RequestLogger\RequestLoggerServiceProvider" --tag="request-logger-config"
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

It is possible to enable logging of all or some requests conditionally using one of the approaches below.

### Enable log via middleware (Recommended)

[](#enable-log-via-middleware-recommended)

This package comes with a convenient `requestlog` middleware that can be used to enable logging of request by simply registering the middleware on the routes (or route groups) you wish to log:

```
Route::middleware('requestlog')->get('/', function () {
    return 'Hello World';
});
```

### Enable via config file

[](#enable-via-config-file)

The config file includes some convenient settings for enabling logging of all or some requests:

```
// Enable all requests:
'log_methods' => ['*'],

// or enable all server errors
'log_statuses' => ['5**'],
```

### Enable log via request

[](#enable-log-via-request)

This package adds a macro on the `Illuminate\Http\Request` class making it possible to enable logging directly from the request:

```
/**
 * Index posts.
 *
 * @param  Request  $request
 * @return Response
 */
public function index(Request $request)
{
    $request->enableLog();

    //
}
```

Extending with custom Drivers
-----------------------------

[](#extending-with-custom-drivers)

This package implements the [Laravel Manager Class](https://inspector.dev/how-to-extend-laravel-with-driver-based-services/) making it possible to easily register custom drivers either in your application or by third party packages.

An `example` driver can be specified as middleware parameters:

```
Route::middleware('log:example')->get('/', function () {
    return 'Hello World';
});
```

or via request macro:

```
$request->enableLog('example');
```

Pruning
-------

[](#pruning)

The number of logged requests can quickly grow if you are not pruning the logs regularly. In order to keep the logs manageable, you can use the `prune` command to remove old logs as [described in the Laravel Docs](https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/eloquent#pruning-models):

```
$schedule->command('requestlog:prune')->daily();
```

Note that the default `RequestLog` model setup by this package will not be discovered as a "Prunable" model by Laravel default `model:prune` command as it does not reside in the `app/Models` directory. If you change this class in the configuration to a custom class this will be auto registered and the command above will be needless.

Notes and advises
-----------------

[](#notes-and-advises)

### Proxies and load balancers

[](#proxies-and-load-balancers)

When using proxies and/or load balancers then the IP address of the proxy/load balancer must be listed as a [Trusted Proxy](https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/requests#configuring-trusted-proxies) for the users IP address to be correctly logged as the IP of the proxy itself will be logged otherwise.

Testing
-------

[](#testing)

```
composer test
```
