Kirby log plugin

A little log utility you can use with Kirby CMS. It's a wrapper around KLogger.

Installation

• unzip master.zip as folder site/plugins/kirby-log or
• git submodule add https://github.com/bvdputte/kirby-log.git site/plugins/kirby-log or
• composer require bvdputte/kirby-log

Usage

By default, all kirby system exceptions are logged to site/logs/kirbylog.log.
(Can be disabled via 'bvdputte.kirbylog.exceptionlog' => false in config.php.

Logging API:

$site->log("message", "level" /* optional */, "appendcontext" /* optional */);

Default usage

$site->log("This text will be added to the default log");

• Output: [2018-08-06 17:26:50.376956] [info] This text will be added to the default log.
• Logfile: /site/logs/kirbylog.log

💡 The logfile will be created automatically when not existant.

Define the loglevel

As defined by PSR-3, you can pass the wanted loglevel as the second argument in the ->log() method:

$site->log("My message", "error");

• Output: [2018-08-06 17:26:50.372955] [error] My message
• Logfile: /site/logs/kirbylog.log

💡 By default the loglevel is info. This can be set in the options.

Log variables to log

AppendContext can be interesting to include variables to your log.

$arr = ["foo", "bar", "baz"];
$site->log("My message", "debug", $arr);

• Output:

[2018-08-06 17:26:50.373625] [debug] My message
    0: 'foo'
    1: 'bar'
    2: 'baz'

• Logfile: /site/logs/kirbylog.log

Customize the logger

API:

$site->logger("logname", "options" /* optional */, "defaultlevel" /* optional */)->log("message", "level" /* optional */, "appendcontext" /* optional */);

1. Custom log name

$site->logger("my-own-logfile.log")->log("This event will be added to my custom named logfile");

• Output: [2018-08-06 17:26:50.376956] [info] This event will be added to my custom named logfile.
• Logfile: /site/logs/my-own-logfile.log

2. Extended options for the logger

Several extended options are available:

• dateFormat: use PHP syntax
• logFormat: formatting options
• appendContext: Enable/Disable

Pass them as follows to the logger using an associative array:

$options = [
    'dateFormat'     => 'Y-m-d G:i:s.u',
    'logFormat'      => false,
    'appendContext'  => true,
];
$site->logger("infolog.log", $options)->log("Info about something", "info");

More info on KLogger docs.

Kirby configurable options

1. The default location where logfiles will be saved is the Kirby default logs location: /site/logs/. You can change this locaction via the custom folder setup and then change the logs root.
2. The default logname is kirbylog.log. Change it in config.php via 'bvdputte.kirbylog.logname' => 'custom-logname.log'.
3. The default loglevel is info. Change it in config.php via 'bvdputte.kirbylog.defaultloglevel' => 'debug'. Be sure to use a valid PSR-3 loglevel.
4. 'bvdputte.kirbylog.rotateLogs' => true: log rotation is on by default when logs get bigger then 10MB. Set to false to disable logrotation
5. 'bvdputte.kirbylog.rotateLogSizeThreshold' => '10MB' // can be in 'B', 'KB', 'MB' or 'GB': the size-based threshold for logrotation. Defaults to 10MB
