Laravel Multiple Logs
=====================

[](#laravel-multiple-logs)

Composer package for Laravel 5 that adds a few additional log files as well as facades to write to them.

Writing to `laravel.log` is fairly easy but sometimes it is a bit cumbersome to write to additional logs.

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

[](#installation)

To install from Composer, use the following command:

```
composer require csun-metalab/laravel-multiple-logs

```

Now, add the following optional line(s) to your `.env` file:

```
# Number of days for which the "daily" logs should be kept; default is 7
LOG_MAX_DAYS=7

```

Next, add the service provider to your `providers` array in Laravel as follows:

```
'providers' => [
   //...

   CSUNMetaLab\MultipleLogs\Providers\LoggingServiceProvider::class,

   // You can also use the following depending on Laravel convention:
   // 'CSUNMetaLab\MultipleLogs\Providers\LoggingServiceProvider',

   //...
],

```

Add the two facades for the new loggers to your `aliases` array in Laravel as follows:

```
'aliases' => [
    //...

    'AuditLog' => CSUNMetaLab\MultipleLogs\Facades\AuditLog::class,
    'AuthLog' => CSUNMetaLab\MultipleLogs\Facades\AuthLog::class,

    // You can also use the following depending on Laravel convention:
    //'AuditLog' => 'CSUNMetaLab\MultipleLogs\Facades\AuditLog',
    //'AuthLog' => 'CSUNMetaLab\MultipleLogs\Facades\AuthLog',

    //...
],

```

Finally, run the following Artisan command to publish the configuration:

```
php artisan vendor:publish

```

Facades
-------

[](#facades)

The two facades you added to your `config/app.php` file are the following:

### AuditLog

[](#auditlog)

This writes to a file called `audit.log` in your `storage/logs` directory.

This supports all of the same methods the native `Log` facade does.

The matching `auditLogger()` helper method also supports them as instance methods.

### AuthLog

[](#authlog)

This writes to a file called `auth.log` in your `storage/logs` directory.

This supports all of the same methods the native `Log` facade does.

The matching `authLogger()` helper method also supports them as instance methods.

Usage Examples
--------------

[](#usage-examples)

### Writing INFO Data

[](#writing-info-data)

```
AuditLog::info("User performed some action");
AuthLog::info("User authenticated successfully");

auditLogger()->info("User performed some action");
authLogger()->info("User authenticated successfully");

```

### Writing ERROR Data

[](#writing-error-data)

```
AuditLog::error("User tried to perform an action unsuccessfully");
AuthLog::error("User could not authenticate");

auditLogger()->error("User tried to perform an action unsuccessfully");
authLogger()->error("User could not authenticate");

```

Creating Custom File Loggers
----------------------------

[](#creating-custom-file-loggers)

You can create your own custom file loggers by extending the `Logger` class:

```

```

Now, you can just construct it and immediately use the methods, for example:

```

```

It is now significantly easier to add multiple log files and additional logging capabilities in Laravel.
