Usage

Middleware Usage

Events for laravel authentication scaffolding are listened for as providers and are enabled via middleware. You can add events to your routes and controllers via the middleware:

activity

Example to start recording page views using middlware in web.php:

Route::group(['middleware' => ['web', 'activity']], function () {
    Route::get('/', 'WelcomeController@welcome')->name('welcome');
});

This middlware can be enabled/disabled in the configuration settings.

Trait Usage

Events can be recorded directly by using the trait. When using the trait you can customize the event description.

To use the trait:

  1. Include the call in the head of your class file:

        use jeremykenedy\LaravelLogger\App\Http\Traits\ActivityLogger;
  2. Include the trait call in the opening of your class:

        use ActivityLogger;
  3. You can record the activity my calling the traits method:

        ActivityLogger::activity("Logging this activity.");
    

    Or as bellow to include extended activity details:

        ActivityLogger::activity("Logging this activity.", "Additional activity details.");
    

Routes

Laravel Activity Dashbaord Routes
  • /activity
  • /activity/cleared
  • /activity/log/{id}
  • /activity/cleared/log/{id}

Custom package routes

If you wish to change the route paths, names or other options you can disable the default routes in your .env file by setting

LARAVEL_LOGGER_DISABLE_ROUTES=true

If you are on an existing install, you will also need update your laravel-logger.php config file to add the config option:

'disableRoutes' => env('LARAVEL_LOGGER_DISABLE_ROUTES', false),

You can then add the routes directly to your application's routes/web.php file, and customise as required.

Route::group(['prefix' => 'activity', 'namespace' => 'jeremykenedy\LaravelLogger\App\Http\Controllers', 'middleware' => ['web', 'auth', 'activity']], function () {

    // Dashboards
    Route::get('/', 'LaravelLoggerController@showAccessLog')->name('activity');
    Route::get('/cleared', ['uses' => 'LaravelLoggerController@showClearedActivityLog'])->name('cleared');

    // Drill Downs
    Route::get('/log/{id}', 'LaravelLoggerController@showAccessLogEntry');
    Route::get('/cleared/log/{id}', 'LaravelLoggerController@showClearedAccessLogEntry');

    // Forms
    Route::delete('/clear-activity', ['uses' => 'LaravelLoggerController@clearActivityLog'])->name('clear-activity');
    Route::delete('/destroy-activity', ['uses' => 'LaravelLoggerController@destroyActivityLog'])->name('destroy-activity');
    Route::post('/restore-log', ['uses' => 'LaravelLoggerController@restoreClearedActivityLog'])->name('restore-activity');
});

Search

adding dynamic search fields (description , user, URL , method and ip address)

.env file

add these configurations to your .env file to control the logging search

LARAVEL_LOGGER_ENABLE_SEARCH=true
// you can customize your search using these options [description,user,method,route,ip]
LARAVEL_LOGGER_SEARCH_FIELDS=description,user,method,route,ip

by default all search fields are enabled when you enable the search with this one line configuration

LARAVEL_LOGGER_SEARCH_ENABLE=true
