🧾 maatify/psr-logger

A PSR-3 compatible logger powered by Monolog, supporting dynamic file naming, hourly log rotation, and project-aware path detection. Built for professional PHP projects that need organized, flexible, and standards-compliant logging.

🔗 بالعربي 🇸🇦

🧱 Built on Monolog

This package is powered by Monolog v3 — the industry-standard logging library for PHP.
It extends Monolog with automatic path detection, hourly rotation, and project-aware file structure, making it ideal for scalable and professional PHP applications.

📦 Installation

Install via Composer:

composer require maatify/psr-logger

📦 Dependencies

This library relies on:

🧱 maatify/psr-logger builds upon these open-source libraries to provide a unified, context-aware, and developer-friendly logging experience across all Maatify packages.

⚙️ Features

• ✅ PSR-3 compatible (Psr\Log\LoggerInterface)
• ✅ Built on Monolog v3
• ✅ Smart file rotation by date/hour (Y/m/d/H)
• ✅ Dynamic file naming by class or custom context
• ✅ Works both standalone or inside any Composer project
• ✅ Optional log cleanup (manual or via cron)
• ✅ Zero configuration — auto-detects project root

🧩 Usage

Basic Example

use Maatify\PsrLogger\LoggerFactory;

$logger = LoggerFactory::create('services/payment');
$logger->info('Payment started', ['order_id' => 501]);

Resulting file:

storage/logs/2025/11/05/10/services/payment.log

⚙️ Auto Context Detection (Class-based Logging)

Automatically detects and uses the calling class name as the logging context — no need to specify it manually.

use Maatify\PsrLogger\Traits\LoggerContextTrait;

class UserService
{
    use LoggerContextTrait;

    public function __construct()
    {
        // Option 1️⃣ — Initialize once and use via $this->logger
        $this->initLogger(); // auto context → logs/UserService.log
        $this->logger->info('User service initialized.');

        // Option 2️⃣ — (New in v1.0.1) Get the logger instance directly
        $logger = $this->initLogger('services/user');
        $logger->debug('Inline logger usage example.');
    }
}

Resulting files:

storage/logs/2025/11/05/10/UserService.log
storage/logs/2025/11/05/10/services/user.log

🧱 Custom Context Example

You can override the automatic context by specifying a custom path or namespace. This is useful for grouping logs by module or feature (e.g., services/payment, queue/worker, etc.).

use Maatify\PsrLogger\Traits\LoggerContextTrait;

class PaymentProcessor
{
    use LoggerContextTrait;

    public function __construct()
    {
        // Initialize logger with a custom context
        $this->initLogger('services/payment');
        $this->logger->info('Payment processor initialized.');
    }

    public function process(int $orderId): void
    {
        // Direct inline usage — available since v1.0.1
        $logger = $this->initLogger('services/payment/process');
        $logger->info('Processing order', ['order_id' => $orderId]);
    }
}

Resulting file:

storage/logs/2025/11/05/10/services/payment/process.log

⚡ Static Logger for Utility & Bootstrap Classes (New in v1.0.2)

When working with static classes, such as Bootstrap, CronRunner, or FileLockManager, you can now use the StaticLoggerTrait to obtain PSR-3 loggers without class instantiation.

use Maatify\PsrLogger\Traits\StaticLoggerTrait;

final class Bootstrap
{
    use StaticLoggerTrait;

    public static function init(): void
    {
        $logger = self::getLogger('bootstrap/init');
        $logger->info('Bootstrap initialized successfully');
    }
}

Resulting file:

storage/logs/2025/11/10/10/bootstrap/init.log

This makes it easy to integrate consistent logging even inside global initializers, CLI runners, or static utility helpers.

🧹 Log Cleanup (manual or cron)

You can run the provided script to delete old log files manually or via cron.

1. Manual Cleanup

php vendor/maatify/psr-logger/scripts/clean_logs.php

2. Composer Shortcut

Add to your project’s composer.json:

"scripts": {
  "logs:clean": "php vendor/maatify/psr-logger/scripts/clean_logs.php"
}

Then run:

composer logs:clean

3. Cron Job Example

0 3 * * * php /var/www/project/vendor/maatify/psr-logger/scripts/clean_logs.php >> /var/log/log_cleanup.log 2>&1

⚙️ Environment Variables

Example .env file:

LOG_PATH=storage/logs
LOG_RETENTION_DAYS=14

🌿 Optional: Environment Initialization

This package ships with vlucas/phpdotenv
to simplify environment configuration management.

The logger itself does not automatically load your .env file. You should initialize it at the project level before using the logger.

Example:

use Dotenv\Dotenv;
use Maatify\PsrLogger\LoggerFactory;

require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

$dotenv = Dotenv::createImmutable(__DIR__);
$dotenv->safeLoad();

$logger = LoggerFactory::create('bootstrap/test');
$logger->info('Logger initialized successfully!');

🧭 Project Root Detection

If the library is installed inside:

vendor/maatify/psr-logger

it automatically goes 3 levels up to the project root. If running standalone (during development), it uses its own root directory.

🔌 Integration Examples

🪶 Slim Framework

use Maatify\PsrLogger\LoggerFactory;

$container->set('logger', function() {
    return LoggerFactory::create('slim/app');
});

// Example usage inside a route:
$app->get('/ping', function ($request, $response) {
    $this->get('logger')->info('Ping request received');
    return $response->write('pong');
});

🧱 Laravel

In app/Providers/AppServiceProvider.php:

use Maatify\PsrLogger\LoggerFactory;

public function register()
{
    $this->app->singleton('maatify.logger', function () {
        return LoggerFactory::create('laravel/app');
    });
}

Usage anywhere:

app('maatify.logger')->info('Laravel integration working!');

⚙️ Native PHP Project

require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

use Maatify\PsrLogger\LoggerFactory;

$logger = LoggerFactory::create('custom/project');
$logger->error('Something went wrong', ['code' => 500]);
