README

Forwards exception reports stored as individual files to AWS CloudWatch Logs.

This something that AWS CloudWatch Agent cannot do.

You should run it in cron every couple of minutes.

Requirements

PHP >= 8.1 (the binary name carries the minimum PHP version, e.g. aws-excfwd-php81). On servers with older default PHP, point cron at a newer interpreter explicitly:

/usr/bin/php8.1 /usr/local/bin/aws-excfwd-php81 push:directory ...

For PHP 7.x use an older release (aws-excfwd, up to and including the last release before the PHP 8.1 requirement) from GitHub releases.

Example usage for Magento

bin/cli.php push:directory -v --formatter=serialized_array --region=eu-central-1 --group=magento-exc-report /var/www/magento-base/current/var/report/  

Build

composer install
composer build

Install

CentOS RPM Package
