Installation ------------ [](#installation) Require this package with composer using the following command: ``` composer require vanilla/laravel ``` This package makes use of Laravels package auto-discovery mechanism so it should automatically be applied. Additional Logging Context -------------------------- [](#additional-logging-context) This is automatically configured if the package is installed through composer. Every made during a web request will have the following additional data applied. ``` { // ... Basic log data here. "tags": ["webRequest"], "request": { "hostname": "www.your-service.com", "method": "GET", "path": "/some/path/here?queryParams", "protocol": "https", "url": "https://www.your-service.com/some/path/here?queryParams", "clientIP": "0.0.0.0" } } ``` Improved JSON Log Formatter --------------------------- [](#improved-json-log-formatter) To apply this, update your desired log channel in `config/logging.php` file to use the new log formatter. **`config/logging.php`** ``` return [ // ...Other configs here "channels" => [ // ...Other configs here "single" => [ "driver" => "single", "formatter" => VanillaLogFormatter::class, "path" => storage_path("logs/laravel.log"), "level" => env("LOG_LEVEL", "debug"), ], "syslog" => [ "driver" => "syslog", "formatter" => VanillaLogFormatter::class, "level" => env("LOG_LEVEL", "debug"), ], // ...Other configs here ], // ...Other configs here ]; ``` The improved log formatter provides the following behaviours: - Outputs logs as serialized JSON prepended with `$json:` in the standard vanilla `v2` logging schema. - `Vanilla\Laravel\Exception\ContextException` instances will now have their context serialized. - Exception stack traces have improved serialization. - Frames do not include the base path of the repo. - Certain common frames are always excludes (like ones in the log formatter and exception handler). - Vendor stack frames are collapsed. - Only files and line numbers are included. - All logs get a minimal stacktrace. Improved Exception Handling --------------------------- [](#improved-exception-handling) To apply this have your exception handler in `Exceptions\Handler.php` extend from `Vanilla\Laravel\Exceptions\ExceptionHandler` instead of `Illuminate\Foundation\Exceptions\Handler`. It has the following improved behaviours - API responses will always be serialized as JSON. - Thrown `ContextExceptions` will serialize their context. - If the `app.debug` config is enabled then stack traces will be returned in the JSON output. Context Exceptions ------------------ [](#context-exceptions) Oftentimes when you throw an exception you might have some useful structured data that you want captured for logging or an HTTP response. For these case throw or extend `Vanilla\Laravel\Exceptions\ContextException`. It adds an optional array of `context`. Want to add additional context to a caught `ContextException`? Use `ContextException::withContext($newContext)`. Configuration Validation ------------------------ [](#configuration-validation) This package registers a new command `artisan config:validate` that will automatically run before `config:cache`. It will look through your configuration files for validation specification under a `ValidateConfigCommand::KEY` key and validate the rest of that configuration file according to those rules. ### Example [](#example) **orch.php** ``` return [ /// /// Config validate here!!! /// ValidateConfigCommand::KEY => [ "type" => ["in:orchestration,local"], "base_url" => ["required", "url"], "search_service_base_url" => ["required", "url"], "hostname" => ["string"], "token" => ["string", "required"], "network" => ["string", "required"], "zone" => ["string", "required"], ], /* |-------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Orchestration |-------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | These fields are used for accessing orchestration and fetching site info. */ "type" => env("ORCH_TYPE", $isOrchestration ? "orchestration" : "local"), // Base URL for orchestration. "base_url" => env("ORCH_BASE_URL"), // Optional. Primarily used in localhost to force `Host` header with a base_url of an internalIP for the VPN. "hostname" => env("ORCH_HOSTNAME"), // Access token used to call orchestration. "token" => env("ORCH_TOKEN"), // Which orchestration network to use. "network" => env("ORCH_NETWORK"), // Which orchestration zone to use. "zone" => env("ORCH_ZONE"), // Base url to use when calling elasticsearch. "search_service_base_url" => env("ORCH_SEARCH_SERVICE_BASE_URL"), ]; ``` ### Health Score 32 — LowBetter than 69% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity33 Limited adoption so far Community8 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity53 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.
