README

LogiAudit is a Laravel package designed for structured logging with support for job-based log storage, pruning, and customizable log levels.

Features

• Queue-Based Logging: Logs are stored asynchronously using Laravel jobs.
• Contextual Logging: Supports logging with model associations, trace IDs, and additional metadata.
• Automatic Pruning: Logs marked as deletable can be automatically removed.
• Monolog Integration: Works seamlessly with Laravel's logging system.
• IP Tracking: Logs IP addresses for traceability.
• Configurable Cleanup: Define log retention periods.

Installation

You can install the package via Composer:

composer require aurorawebsoftware/logiaudit

Running Migrations

After installation, run the migration command to create the necessary database table:

php artisan migrate

Usage

Logging Events

You can log messages using the provided addLog helper function:

addLog('info', 'User logged in', [
    'model_id' => $user->id,
    'model_type' => get_class($user),
    'trace_id' => Str::uuid(),
    'context' => ['role' => 'admin'],
    'ip_address' => request()->ip(),
    'deletable' => true,
    'delete_after_days' => 30,
]);

addLog Helper Function Details

The addLog function allows for flexible logging with optional parameters:

• level (string, required): Log level (e.g., info, error, warning).
• message (string, required): The log message.
• options (array, optional): Additional context for the log entry.
  • model_id (int, nullable): The ID of the related model (if applicable).
  • model_type (string, nullable): The model's class name.
  • trace_id (string, nullable): A unique identifier for tracing logs across multiple services.
  • context (array, nullable): Any extra contextual data.
  • ip_address (string, nullable): The IP address of the request.
  • deletable (bool, default: true): Determines if the log can be pruned.
  • delete_after_days (int, nullable): Number of days before the log should be automatically deleted (if deletable is true).

Using LogiAudit with Laravel's Logging System

You can also log messages using Laravel's built-in logging channels:

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Log;

Log::channel('logiaudit')->info('Custom log message', [
    'model_id' => 1,
    'model_type' => 'User',
    'trace_id' => Str::uuid(),
    'context' => ['key' => 'value'],
    'ip_address' => request()->ip(),
]);

To configure Laravel to use this handler, update config/logging.php:

'channels' => [
    'logiaudit' => [
        'driver' => 'custom',
        'via' => AuroraWebSoftware\LogiAudit\Logging\LogiAuditHandler::class,
    ],
],

Running the Log Queue Worker

Since logs are queued using onQueue('logiaudit'), you need to run a dedicated queue worker:

php artisan queue:work --queue=logiaudit

To run the queue worker in the background and ensure it stays active, consider using supervisor or systemd.

Running the Log Pruning Command

To remove logs marked as deletable, run the following command:

php artisan logs:prune

Alternatively, you can schedule this command in your app/Console/Kernel.php:

protected function schedule(Schedule $schedule)
{
    $schedule->command('logs:prune')->daily();
}
