This package provides a custom log driver for storing Laravel log messages in the database.

Compatible with Laravel 12 and 13.

```
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Log;

Log::channel('db')->info('Your message');
```

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

[](#installation)

Install the package via Composer:

```
composer require yoeriboven/laravel-log-db
```

Publish and run the migrations:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="log-db-migrations"
php artisan migrate
```

Next, configure the database channel in `config/logging.php`:

```
use Yoeriboven\LaravelLogDb\DatabaseLogger;

return [
    'channels' => [
        'db' => [
            'driver'     => 'custom',
            'via'        => DatabaseLogger::class,
            'connection' => env('LOG_DB_CONNECTION'), // Optional, defaults to app's DB connection
            'days'       => 7, // Optional, retention period in days
            'level'      => env('LOG_LEVEL', 'debug'), // Optional
        ],
    ]
]
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

To use the database channel, either:

- Add it to the stack channel for combined logging:

```
// config/logging.php
return [
    'channels' => [
        'stack' => [
            'channels' => ['single', 'db'],
        ],
        // other channels
    ]
]
```

- Log directly to the database:

```
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Log;

Log::channel('db')->info('Your log message');
```

### Fallback channel

[](#fallback-channel)

If the database is unavailable, you can define a fallback channel to handle logs:

```
// config/logging.php

return [
    'channels' => [
        'fallback' => [
            'channels' => ['single'],
        ],
    ]
]
```

If no fallback channel is defined it will default to the `single` channel.

### Pruning the logs

[](#pruning-the-logs)

To automatically delete logs older than a specified number of days, set the `days` key in the configuration and schedule log pruning:

```
$schedule->command('model:prune', [
    '--model' => [
        \Yoeriboven\LaravelLogDb\Models\LogMessage::class,
    ],
])->daily();
```
