Laravel Log Viewer Package

A Laravel package for viewing and analyzing application log files with an easy-to-navigate interface. This package provides insights into log contents, including log type breakdown, and offers a convenient way to browse through the log directory.

Features

• Log Directory Navigation: Browse through folders and view individual log files.
• Log Analysis: Summarize log entries by type (info, error, warning, etc.).
• Detailed Log Viewer: Display log contents in a structured table format, with modal support for full entry viewing.

Requirements

• PHP: >= 7.4
• Laravel: 7.x or 11.x

Installation

1. Install via Composer:

   composer require fixik/log-viewer

2. Publish Configuration and Views (if required):

   php artisan vendor:publish --tag=log-viewer-config
   php artisan vendor:publish --tag=log-viewer-views

Configuration

The default configuration allows you to specify:

• The log directory path (default is storage/logs).
• Customization for pagination and log display limits.

To customize, open the published configuration file located in config/log-viewer.php.

Usage

Route Setup

Add the following route to access the Log Viewer UI:

use Fixik\LogViewer\Controllers\LogViewerController;

Route::prefix('logs')->group(function () {
    Route::get('/', [LogViewerController::class, 'index'])->name('logs.index');
    Route::get('/view/{filename}', [LogViewerController::class, 'show'])->name('logs.show');
});

Display Logs

1. Log File List: Navigate to /logs to view a structured list of available log files.
2. View Log Details: Click on a log file to see its contents, summaries, and detailed entries.

Example of LogViewerController

This package provides a pre-built controller for viewing logs. Here’s how it processes log files:

• index(): Retrieves the directory structure of the log directory.
• show(): Displays details for a specific log file, including a breakdown of log types.

Views

The package includes customizable views:

• Log List View: Displays folders and log files.
• Log Details View: Displays log file contents and includes a modal for individual log entry details.

To customize the view files, edit the files in resources/views/vendor/log-viewer.

Example Blade Usage for XML Logs

To display XML logs, use the following snippet in your Blade templates:

<pre>{{ $xmlContent }}</pre>

Customization

Changing Log Directory

Specify a different log directory, route or middleware in the config file:

'log_directory' => storage_path('custom-logs'),
'routes' => [
     'prefix' => env('LOG_VIEWER_ROUTE_PREFIX', 'log-viewer'),
     'middleware' => env('LOG_VIEWER_ROUTE_MIDDLEWARE', 'web'),
 ]
