Laravel

Laravel 7.x package for logging errors

Installation

You can install the package through Composer.

composer require cerealkiller/error-logger-laravel-sdk

Then publish the config and migration file of the package using artisan.

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="ErrorLogger\ErrorLoggerServiceProvider"

And adjust config file (config/errorlogger.php) with your desired settings.

Note: By default only local environments will report errors. To modify this edit your errorlogger configuration.

ENV Configuration

Application keys are generated at https://error-logger.netlify.app/

All that is left to do is to define env configuration variable in .env

ERRORLOGGER_API_KEY=

ERRORLOGGER_API_KEY is key which authorizes your application to the API.

Next is to add the errorlogger driver to the logging.php file:

'channels' => [
    'errorlogger' => [
        'driver' => 'errorlogger',
    ],
],

After that you have configured the ErrorLogger channel you can add it to the stack section:

'channels' => [
    'stack' => [
        'driver' => 'stack',
        'channels' => ['single', 'errorlogger'],
    ],
],

Frontend

To catch frontend errors, add this include blade directive on top of the file where you want to log errors.

@include('errorlogger::js-errorlogger-client')

Testing

Now test to see if it works, you can do this in two ways.

Option 1:

Run this in your terminal:

php artisan errorlogger:test

Option 2:

Run this code in your application to see if the exception is received by ErrorLogger.

throw new \Exception('Testing my application!');

And you are good to go! Happy coding :)
