FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

CakePHP DatabaseLog Plugin
DatabaseLog engine for CakePHP applications.
This branch is for CakePHP 3.x
Features
- Easy setup and almost no dependencies.
- Defaults to SQLite as single app application light weight approach.
- Ideal for multi app applications where logging to a file is just not convenient.
- If DB is used, fallback to SQLite in case the DB is not reachable.
- Simple admin interface to view/delete logs included.
- Basic monitoring and alert system included.
- Export to TXT files possible.
Log Rotation
While file handling requires file log rotation and splitting into chunks of (compressed) files, a database approach can more easily keep the logs together in a single database. This is more convinient when looking through them or searching for something specific.
This plugin internally combines log entries of the exact same "content" into a single row with an increased count. Additionally you would want to add a cronjob triggered cleanup shell to keep the total size and row count below a certain threshold.
Demo
Clone and install the sandbox app, create some errors and browse the admin backend for the logs overview.
Or just attach it to your app directly. Time needed: 5 minutes.
Install
Composer (preferred)
Setup
Enable the plugin in your config/bootstrap.php:
or just call:
You can simply modify the existing config entries in your config/app.php:
This will use the database_log connection and an SQLite file database by default, stored in your logs folder.
Using an actual database (optional)
Create a config setting in your config/app.php what database connection it should log to:
It is recommended to not use the same datasource as your production server (default) because when the DB is not reachable logging to it will
also not be possible. In that case it will fallback to SQLite file logging on this server instance, though.
Once the datasource is reachable and once the first log entry is being written, the database table (defaulting to database_logs) will be automatically
created. No need to manually run any migration or SQL script here.
You can also manually create the table before hand, if you prefer:
Or just copy the migration file into your app /config/Migrations, modify if needed, and then run it as part of your app migrations.
Fully tested so far are PostgreSQL and MySQL, but by using the ORM all major databases should be supported.
Usage
Anywhere in your app where you call $this->log() or Log::write() the DatabaseLog engine will be used.
There is also a browsable web backend you can view your logs with.
See docs for more details.
