README

A powerful, secure, and flexible logging package for Laravel that captures both inbound (user requests) and outbound (HTTP client) traffic. Designed for applications that need rigorous audit trails, debugging of third-party integrations, and request/response monitoring.

Key Features

• Inbound Traffic Logging: Automatically log incoming user requests, including headers, bodies, IP, User ID, and Session ID.
• Outbound Traffic Logging: Capture all HTTP Client requests (Http::get, Http::post, etc.) automatically.
• Trigger Context: For outbound requests, see exactly what user input (payload) triggered the API call.
• Smart Error Capture: Automatically prioritizes error logs. Captures full stack traces and error messages for exceptions.
• Security First:
  • Configurable encryption for sensitive fields (e.g., password, ssn, pin).
  • Secure Dashboard with on-demand decryption.
  • API Endpoint protected by a mutable passkey.
• Dashboard: A clean, responsive UI (similar to Horizon) to browse, filter, and inspect logs.
• Configurable Pruning: Automatically clean up old logs to keep your database healthy.

Basic Examples

1. Inbound Logging

Just install the package, and it starts working. By default, it logs errors only (status >= 400) to keep noise low, but you can configure it to log everything.

2. Outbound Logging

When you make a request using Laravel's HTTP Client:

Http::post('https://third-party-api.com/v1/charge', [
    'amount' => 100,
    'card_number' => '4242424242424242' // This will be encrypted in logs!
]);

The package logs the request URL, headers, body, response status, and body.

3. API Access

Retrieve logs programmatically using the secure API endpoint:

curl -X POST https://your-app.com/db-logs/api/logs \
     -d "limit=10" \
     -d "passkey=YOUR_SECURE_KEY"
