README

A micro-package for Laravel that allows you to log messages to the dump channel, which sends all log messages to the dump() function. This is useful for debugging purposes, especially when you want to see the output of your logs in the browser or console without having to set up a dedicated logging channel.

Additionally, it may come in handy if you intercept dumped messages (via browser extension, dump server, or a utility such as Laravel Herd).

Installation

You can install the package via composer (primarily intended for development purposes):

composer require --dev kenzal/log-to-dump

Usage

Simply set your default log channel to dump or a stack that includes dump;

You may also specify the dump channel in your config/logging.php file:

'channels' => [
    // ...
    'dump' => [
        'driver' => 'dump',
    ],
],

Options

You can configure the dump channel in your config/logging.php file. The following options are available:

• level: The minimum log level to log. Defaults to debug.
• formatter: A monolog formatter to use.
• processors: An array of monolog processors to use.

Testing

composer test
