Available Loggers

There are 5 different logger classes to chose from:

\Donchev\Log\Loggers\FileLogger
\Donchev\Log\Loggers\OutputLogger
\Donchev\Log\Loggers\StdOutLogger
\Donchev\Log\Loggers\StdErrLogger
\Donchev\Log\Loggers\NullLogger

Minimum logging level

You can set a minimum logging level through the constructor - passing a Psr\Log\LogLevel as an argument. If set, messages with lower level priority will not be logged.

Log levels priorities:

LogLevel::EMERGENCY => 7,
LogLevel::ALERT => 6,
LogLevel::CRITICAL => 5,
LogLevel::ERROR => 4,
LogLevel::WARNING => 3,
LogLevel::NOTICE => 2,
LogLevel::INFO => 1,
LogLevel::DEBUG => 0,

Log message interpolation

You can use placeholders in your messages as described in the PSR-3 standard.

Example:

$logger = new FileLogger('file.log');
$logger->info(
    'Here comes the placeholder: {foo}!',
    ['foo' => 'Hi there from within the context']
);
Output:
[2021-03-18 10:43:56 CET] [INFO]: Here comes the placeholder: Hi there from within the context! 
Context:
(
    [foo] => Hi there from within the context
)

Logger Options

You can pass an array of options through the constructor.

Example:

$logger = new \Donchev\Log\Loggers\OutputLogger(\Psr\Log\LogLevel::WARNING, [
    'file_prefix' => '',
    'include_context' => true,
    'log_json' => false,
    'one_line_log' => true,
]);

Available options

Option Name Default Value Description
line_format [%s] [%s]: %s %s The value of line_format is passed to sprintf(). You need to specify exactly 4 placeholders %s for a format to be considered valid.
date_format Y-m-d H:i:s T Any php datetime format.
file_prefix none It prefix the filename when FileLogger is used. By default no prefix is added to the filename.
include_context true By default, context is written with each log message. If set to false, it will not write the context.
log_json false If set to true, all log messages will be written as json objects using json_encode().
include_stack_trace true If you pass a context entry with key named "exception" and value an exception object, then the logger will write a useful exception info, including the full stack trace. If you set this option to false, only the exception name will be written.
one_line_log false If set to true, entire context will be encoded to json using json_encode(). This config option applies only when log_json config is set to false
