ClearCut

Laravel package for logging Http requests/responses to database. It provides a middleware that handles request logging and sets a header "X-Request-Id" with a uuid for tracking each request. All logging is done in the background so it won't affect response time.

Features

• Handles Request Logging to Database as a background job
• Provides a UUID for each request for tracking/debugging
• Dumps log table to laravel storage periodically
• Configurable to match or exclude certain requests

Installation

Require the sherifai/clearcut package in your composer.json and update your dependencies:

$ composer require sherifai/clearcut

Next publish the configuration. This is an optional step, it contains some configurations that by default logs all requests.

$ php artisan vendor:publish

Next generate the migration file:

$ php artisan clearcut:migration

It will generate the <timestamp>_request_logs_table.php migration.

Usage

To Start logging requests add LogRequests Middleware in Kernel.php

protected $middleware = [
    // ...
    \SherifAI\ClearCut\Middleware\LogRequests::class,
];

Clearcut then pushes the logging process to a background job.

Configuration

The configuration file config/clearcut.php conatins values for selectively logging requests. By default ClearCut Logs all requests. The most important configurations however are

1. 'dump_every' => 1000 which specifies the interval for logging requests before dumping the database.

2. 'storage_disk' => 'local' which specifies the storage location for the dump file

3. 'queue_name' => 'clearcut' which is the default queue for processing log job

4. 'enabled' => true which determines of the package is working and storing request logs
