The most important features are: - Full support of monolog, including all handlers and processors - A custom handler to write into the database of TYPO3 - A backend module to list & filter the entries [![](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/919766e1dc832f047cfc53a3b644661d5eef340b567865bd33496c120ca2fb20/68747470733a2f2f7472617669732d63692e6f72672f67656f726772696e6765722f6c6f6767696e672e737667)](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/919766e1dc832f047cfc53a3b644661d5eef340b567865bd33496c120ca2fb20/68747470733a2f2f7472617669732d63692e6f72672f67656f726772696e6765722f6c6f6767696e672e737667) ### Screenshots [](#screenshots) [![Documentation/assets/module-list.png](Documentation/assets/module-list.png)](Documentation/assets/module-list.png) alt:Screenshot of the backend module[![Documentation/assets/module-testentry.png](Documentation/assets/module-testentry.png)](Documentation/assets/module-testentry.png) alt:Create a test entry### Requirements [](#requirements) - TYPO3.CMS 7.6+ - Your project set up with composer and monolog/monolog as requirement. ``` "config": { "vendor-dir": "Packages/Libraries", "bin-dir": "bin" }, { "repositories": [ { "type": "composer", "url": "http://composer.typo3.org/" }, { "url": "https://github.com/georgringer/logging.git", "type": "git" } ], "require": { "typo3/cms": "7.1", "georgringer/logging": "dev-master", "monolog/monolog": "*" } } ``` It might be possible that a later release will bring support for 6.2 LTS. ### Installation [](#installation) Install the extension as always. Currently (state of 7.2), packages installed via composer are automatically loaded. For 6.2 LTS, set the environment variable TYPO3\_COMPOSER\_AUTOLOAD to 1, e.g. in your .htaccess: ``` SetEnv TYPO3_COMPOSER_AUTOLOAD 1 ``` Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) The configuration can be added to your typo3conf/AdditionalConfiguration.php file. The API is inspired by the current Logging framework of TYPO3 CMS. The following logging levels are available: ``` * Debug (100) * Info (200) * Notice (250) * Warning (300) * Error (400) * Critical (500) * Alert (550) * Emergency (600) ``` ### Simple file logger [](#simple-file-logger) This is the configuration of a simple file logger which is written to typo3temp/out.log. ``` $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['MONOLOG'] = array( 'handlerConfiguration' => array( 'name' => 'General', 'handlers' => array( \Monolog\Handler\StreamHandler::class => array( 'configuration' => array( PATH_site . 'typo3temp/out.log', \Monolog\Logger::ERROR ) ) ) ) ); ``` Every call will be logged where the level is at least ERROR (400). **Important:** Take care if logging to a file which is available in a public directory with no access restriction!! ### Log to the database [](#log-to-the-database) Sometimes it makes sense to log to the database. You can do that with the following configuration: ``` $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['MONOLOG'] = [ 'processorConfiguration' => [ \GeorgRinger\Logging\Log\Monolog\Processor\Typo3Processor::class => [] ], 'handlerConfiguration' => [ 'name' => 'General', 'handlers' => [ \GeorgRinger\Logging\Log\Monolog\Handler\DatabaseHandler::class => [] ] ] ]; ``` The **Typo3Processor** will add additional information to the log entry: > - An *internal process id* of TYPO3 which will allow to filter all log entries within a single request > - The *IP* of the client > - The *TYPO3 mode* which is either BE, FE or CLI > - The *ID* of an existing backend or frontend user ### Combined example [](#combined-example) The logging framework allows to combine multiple handlers. Logging helps you not only while building a website or application but also during its whole lifetime! Especially on production sites it is likely that you can't use commands like *print\_r* or *die()*. You might ignore debugging information, write warnings to a file and send errors via mail to yourself: ``` $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['MONOLOG'] = array( 'processorConfiguration' => array( \GeorgRinger\Logging\Log\Monolog\Processor\Typo3Processor::class => array() ), 'handlerConfiguration' => array( 'name' => 'General', 'handlers' => array( \Monolog\Handler\NativeMailerHandler::class => array( 'configuration' => array( 'admin@example.org', 'Error from website', 'no-reply@example.org', \Monolog\Logger::ERROR ), ), \Monolog\Handler\StreamHandler::class => array( 'configuration' => array( PATH_site . 'typo3temp/out.log', \Monolog\Logger::WARNING ), ), \Monolog\Handler\SocketHandler::class => array( 'configuration' => array( 'tcp://127.0.0.1:7000' ), 'formatter' => array(\Monolog\Formatter\LogstashFormatter::class, array('Application', 'System')), ), ) ) ); ``` ### Loggers depending on class called [](#loggers-depending-on-class-called) As in the [current logging framework](http://docs.typo3.org/typo3cms/CoreApiReference/ApiOverview/Logging/Configuration/Index.html) of TYPO3 CMS it is also with this extension possible to configure a different logging behaviour for different classes. An example would be to log all warnings to a file but for one important extension those warnings should also be sent as email. Therefore, add the namespace of the specific extension to the logging configuration: ``` $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['MONOLOG'] = array( 'handlerConfiguration' => array( 'name' => 'General', 'handlers' => array( \Monolog\Handler\StreamHandler::class => array( 'configuration' => array( PATH_site . 'typo3temp/out.log', \Monolog\Logger::WARNING ) ) ) ) ); $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['MONOLOG']['GeorgRinger']['Shop'] = array( 'handlerConfiguration' => array( 'name' => 'Important Extension', 'handlers' => array( \Monolog\Handler\NativeMailerHandler::class => array( 'configuration' => array( 'admin@example.org', 'Error from website', 'no-reply@example.org', \Monolog\Logger::WARNING ) ), \Monolog\Handler\StreamHandler::class => array( 'configuration' => array( PATH_site . 'typo3temp/out.log', \Monolog\Logger::WARNING ) ) ) ) ); ``` In the example above, every logging call within the namespace of GeorgRingerShop will trigger the 2nd configuration. All other calls will be handled by the first configuration. How to log ---------- [](#how-to-log) Logging is very simple and similar to the used logging framework: ``` /** @var \Monolog\Logger $logger */ $logger = GeneralUtility::makeInstance(\GeorgRinger\Logging\Log\MonologManager::class)->getLogger(__CLASS__); $logger->info('Some text', array('additional information' => 123)); ``` ### Available methods for logging [](#available-methods-for-logging) The following methods are available for logging. The *context* is an optional array with additional information. **Debug** ``` $logger->addDebug($message, $context); $logger->debug($message, $context); ``` **Info** ``` $logger->addInfo($message, $context); $logger->info($message, $context); ``` **Notice** ``` $logger->addNotice($message, $context); $logger->notice($message, $context); ``` **Warning** ``` $logger->addWarning($message, $context); $logger->warn($message, $context); $logger->warning($message, $context); ``` **Error** ``` $logger->addError($message, $context); $logger->err($message, $context); $logger->error($message, $context); ``` **Critical** ``` $logger->addCritical($message, $context); $logger->crit($message, $context); $logger->critical($message, $context); ``` **Alert** ``` $logger->addAlert($message, $context); $logger->alert($message, $context); ``` **Emergency** ``` $logger->addEmergency($message, $context); $logger->emerg($message, $context); $logger->emergency($message, $context); ``` Contribute! ----------- [](#contribute) Any contribution is highly welcomed.
