README

Laravel Log Keeper helps rotating your logs while storing them anywhere you want with custom local/remote retention policies.

A typical usage of Laravel Log Keeper would be to set a cron job to run daily and store local logs in a S3 bucket, (s)ftp, Dropbox or any other FileSystem driver

You can define a local and/or a remote retention and/or upload after remote days, which by default is 7, 30 and 1 day subsequently.

Files older than 1 day will be compressed and uploaded to remote disk.
Local files older than 7 days removed from local disk.
Remote files older than 31 (remote days+upload after days) days will be permanently deleted from the remote disk.

Highlights

Have full control of where/when/how you archive your logs
Prevent your server from running out of space

    // ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
    // Where in the remote location it will be stored. You can leave it blank
    // or specify a custom folder like proj1-prod or proj1-integ so that you could

    // ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
    // How many days a file will be kept on the remote for.
    // The days here means days after the upload on server. So 30 would actually
    // 30 + 1 = 31
    // Only files older than 31 days would be deleted from the remote disk
    // If value is set to 0 logs will be kept forever.
    // ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
