Logs

Aidbox produces structured logs on every significant event to the internal stream which you may direct to different ways:

{% hint style="info" %} Aidbox logs can be used in audit. Please, see our article on auditing for more info. {% endhint %}

Logs exporting with OTEL spec

Aidbox supports the OpenTelemetry protocol and exports logs in Protobuf format to any consumer that supports this specification.

{% content-ref url="../../modules-1/observability/logging-and-audit/how-to-export-logs-to-the-otel-collector.md" %} how-to-export-logs-to-the-otel-collector.md {% endcontent-ref %}

Logs API

You can get current logs through REST API by GET /_logs - response will be Chunked Transfer Encoding stream of new line separated JSON objects:

GET /_logs

# resp
{"ev":"w/req","w_url":"/Patient","w":"w3","w_m":"get","tn":"edgeniquola","ts":"2019-04-18T13:35:43Z","w_addr":"83.243.75.14, 35.244.249.127","ctx":"d0625fcf-f1a7-4b78-bbdf-b4ec87b6fb57","w_qs":null}
{"d":3,"sql":"\nselect true from _box where id = 'self'\nand resource @>\njsonb_build_object(\n  'participant',\n  jsonb_build_array(json_build_object('user', json_build_object('id', ?::text )))\n) ","db_prm":["github-32066"],"ts":"2019-04-18T13:35:43Z","w":"w3","ev":"db/q","tn":"edgeniquola","ctx":"d0625fcf-f1a7-4b78-bbdf-b4ec87b6fb57"}
{"d":8,"sql":"SELECT \"patient\".* FROM \"patient\" LIMIT ? OFFSET ?","db_prm":["100","0"],"ts":"2019-04-18T13:35:43Z","w":"w3","ev":"db/q","tn":"edgeniquola","ctx":"d0625fcf-f1a7-4b78-bbdf-b4ec87b6fb57"}
{"ev":"w/resp","ctx_end":true,"w_url":"/Patient","w":"w3","w_m":"get","tn":"edgeniquola","ts":"2019-04-18T13:35:43Z","d":15,"w_st":200,"ctx":"d0625fcf-f1a7-4b78-bbdf-b4ec87b6fb57"}
....

{% hint style="info" %} Please, pay attention, that you will not see the response for GET /_logs request in the Aidbox REST console. Use the terminal, or the browser console instead. {% endhint %}

Logs in browser

You can open [aidbox-base]/_logs?format=pretty in your browser, and Aidbox will produce logs in pretty format, similar to AIDBOX_STDOUT_PRETTY format for stdout. Appeared in v2210.

Configure logging

Stdout log

Aidbox sends logs into stdout if one of these env variables defined: AIDBOX_STDOUT_JSON, AIDBOX_STDOUT_PRETTY.

Both environment variables enable logging to stdout but the difference is log format.

Example of the log output when AIDBOX_STDOUT_JSON enabled

{"sql":"SELECT 1","d":2,"ts":"2022-10-26T10:59:59.825Z","w":"main","ev":"db/q"}

Example of the log output when AIDBOX_STDOUT_PRETTY enabled

11:01:12 main [1ms] SELECT 1

Log to file

If you prefer to write logs into the file system, in the .env file specify AIDBOX_LOGS environment variable with a relative path to the desired location.

AIDBOX_LOGS=/logs/aidbox

Another option is to store logs in:
