Log HTTP requests, headers and session data

This package provides a middleware to log incoming http requests data (body data, files, headers and session data). It utilizes Laravel 5.6 logging servises functionality. This package might be useful to log user requests to public apis.

composer require chelout/laravel-http-logger

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Chelout\HttpLogger\HttpLoggerServiceProvider" --tag="config"

return [
    /*
     * Log file path
     */
    'path' => storage_path('logs/http.log'),
    /*
     * The maximal amount of files to keep (0 means unlimited)
     */
    'max_files' => 5,

    /*
     * Log methods
     * [] - log all methods
     * ['get','post'] - log only 'get' and 'post' methods
     */
    'methods' => [],

    /*

    'date_format' => null, // "Y-m-d\TH:i:sP"

    'memory_usage' => true,

    /*

     */
    'memory_peak_usage' => true,

    /*

     *

    // 'data' => false,
    'data' => [
        'only' => [],

    ],

    /*

     *
     * If ['only'] is set, ['except'] parametr will be omitted
     */
    // 'files' => false,
    'files' => [
        'only' => [],
        'except' => [],
    ],

    /*

Usage

This packages provides a middleware which can be added as a global middleware or as a single route.

// in `app/Http/Kernel.php`

protected $middleware = [
    // ...
    
    \Chelout\HttpLogger\Middlewares\HttpLogger::class
];

// in a routes file

Route::post('/submit-form', function () {
    //
})->middleware(\Chelout\HttpLogger\Middlewares\HttpLogger::class);

In order to log http requests you should add log custom log channel:

// in config/logging.php

return [
    // ...

    'channels' => [
        // ...

        'http-logger' => [
            'driver' => 'custom',
            'via' => \Chelout\HttpLogger\Loggers\HttpLogger::class,
        ],
    ],
];

You can also enhance existing log channel by customizing Monolog configuration:

// in config/logging.php

return [
    // ...

    'channels' => [
        // ...

        'single' => [
            'driver' => 'single',
            'tap' => [Chelout\HttpLogger\Loggers\MonologCustomizer::class],
            'path' => storage_path('logs/laravel.log'),
            'level' => 'debug',
        ],
    ],
];
