Logger's using the [standard PHP date() formats](https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php). ``` $logger = new Logger('some/path', 'filename', 'H:i:s'); ``` **Another path and filename options** You can get path, full path to file, filename or date format any time you need: ``` $logger->getPath(); //Returns: some/path/to/ $logger->getFullPath(); //Returns: some/path/to/file.txt $logger->getFilename(); //Returns: file.txt $logger->getDateFormat(); //Returns: Y-m-d H:i:s ``` You can also set another filename or path: ``` $logger->setPath('some/new/path'); $logger->setFilename('new_filename.txt'); $logger->setDateFormat('Y-m'); ``` **Write and read files** To put some content into file (defined in object creation) simply use `log()` method. You can log into file text, numbers and more complicated data structures like arrays and objects ``` $logger->log('some log content'); $logger->log(['some' => ['nice', 'array']); ``` You can also put some information into file, with some label next to it by adding information level as second parameter; ``` $logger->log('some log content', 3); //That makes your log file looks like that: // 2019-09-01 12:02:32 | [WARNING] | some log content ``` There are three supported labels for information leveling: ``` 1 => [INFO] 2 => [DEBUG] 3 => [WARNING] 4 => [ERROR] 5 => [FATAL] 6 => [TRACE] ``` If you want to put data on different path you can declare it in third argument: ``` $logger->log('some log content on custom path', 0, 'custom/path/to/log.txt'); ``` You can also put simple text without any date or special characters into your file by using `text()` method. ``` $logger->text('Hello world'); ``` `text()` allows you to specify ending of line or text by adding additional param like that: ``` $logger->text('Hello world', ', '); $logger->text('bye world.', PHP_EOL); $logger->text('New line, world'); ``` If you want to read contents of your log file use `read($path): string`. ``` $logger->read(); ``` You can also read content of any other text files by adding a path parameter to read method. ``` $logger->read('some/path/to/file.txt'); ``` **Putting variables into log file (deprecated: use log() instead)** You can put more complicated structures like variables into log file by using this: ``` $logger->dump(['some' => ['example', 'array']]); ``` **Send file by email (deprecated)** You can send your log file by email use `send($to)`. Method will grab contents of your log file and send it as message of email. ``` $logger->send('somebody@email.com'); ``` Your server must support `sendmail` to use the above. If you're using UNIX-like systems please take care of installing [postfix](http://www.postfix.org). **Move and copy files** You can move your file to another destination. ``` $logger->move('new/path/to/file.log'); ``` If you want to move another file than active log file use second argument to point what other file you want to move. ``` $logger->move('new/path/to/file.log', 'file/to/move.log'); ``` If you want to just copy file some place else use `copy()` method: ``` $logger->copy('where/to/copy/file.txt'); ``` And similar to the `move` method you can point another file to copy, if you don't want to copy your current log file. ``` $logger->copy('where/to/copy/file.txt', 'what/file/to/copy.txt); ``` **Wiping and deleting log file** If you want to empty content of your current file use: ``` $logger->wipe(); ``` You can also wipe any other text file by using `$path` parameter: ``` $logger->wipe('some/path/to/file.txt'); ``` Interface allows you to deleting files by using `drop()` method. ``` $logger->drop(); ``` Of course you can determine path to another file to drop as well ``` $logger->drop('some/path/to/file.txt'); ``` **Checking size of file** You can check the size of a file by using below: ``` $logger->getFilesize(); ``` Method by default returns size in megabytes. You can determine another unit by passing argument. ``` $logger->getFilezise(); //Returns in megabytes $logger->getFilezise('B'); //Returns in bytes $logger->getFilezise('KB'); //Returns in kilobytes $logger->getFilezise('GB'); //Returns in gigabytes ``` If you want you can check size of any other file by passing path in second argument: ``` $logger->getFilesize('MB', 'path/to/file.txt'); ``` ### Health Score 28 — LowBetter than 54% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity16 Limited adoption so far Community7 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity57 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
