Laravel Log Rotation Package
This package makes log file rotation easier by automatically managing and organizing Laravel logs based on file creation date, retaining only the most recent logs (e.g., 6 months) and discarding older logs. This solution is ideal for applications that generate high volumes of logs, providing efficient log management and preventing excessive disk usage over time.
Benefits
- Rotates your log files based on the log file's current date, ensuring that only the most recent logs are retained.
- Retain logs for a configurable number of months (default: 6 months), which can easily be modified through the configuration file.
- Automatically deletes old logs after the configured retention period, freeing up space on your server.
Installation
