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:
-
Include the call in the head of your class file:
use jeremykenedy\LaravelLogger\App\Http\Traits\ActivityLogger;
-
Include the trait call in the opening of your class:
use ActivityLogger;
-
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
