Preamble

Especially for larger projects logging is essential. You do want to have all the data you need when looking in the past. Nothing is worse than having a serious issue on the production system but lacking of helpful context information. This small package makes it easy to log in a structured manner without cluttering your code.

Examples

Use LogContext::createFromException

This is the recommended way when dealing with Exceptions, unless they implement LogContextConvertibleInterface.

<?php

use \Nostadt\Psr3LogContext\LogContext;

try {
    doSomething();
} catch (\Exception $exception) {
    $this->logger->warning(
        $exception->getMessage(),
        LogContext::createFromException($exception)->toArray()
    );
}

Use LogContextConvertibleInterface

This is the recommend way, because it truly simplifies creating the log-context array.

<?php

class User implements \Nostadt\Psr3LogContext\LogContextConvertibleInterface
{
    public int $id;
    public bool $activated;
    public string $name;

    public function asLogContext(): \Nostadt\Psr3LogContext\LogContext
    {
        return new \Nostadt\Psr3LogContext\LogContext(
            new \Nostadt\Psr3LogContext\ValueObject\LogData('user_id', (string)$this->id),
            new \Nostadt\Psr3LogContext\ValueObject\LogData('user_activated', $this->activated ? 'true' : 'false'),
            new \Nostadt\Psr3LogContext\ValueObject\LogData('user_name', $this->name),
        );
    }
}

$user = new User();
$user->id = 1;
$user->activated = true;
$user->name = 'John Doe';

$logger->warning('My Message', $user->asLogContext()->toArray());

Merge multiple LogContexts

With previous User-class in mind we can merge LogContext-objects.

<?php

use \Nostadt\Psr3LogContext\LogContext;

try {
    registerUser($user);
} catch (\Exception $exception) {
    $this->logger->warning(
        $exception->getMessage(),
        LogContext::createFromException($exception)->mergeLogContext($user->asLogContext())->toArray()
    );
}

Create a LogContext from the scratch

This can be used in situations in which LogContext is not available.

<?php

$logContext = new \Nostadt\Psr3LogContext\LogContext(
    new \Nostadt\Psr3LogContext\ValueObject\LogData('user_uid', '1'),
    new \Nostadt\Psr3LogContext\ValueObject\LogData('user_activated', 'true'),
    new \Nostadt\Psr3LogContext\ValueObject\LogData('user_name', 'John Doe'),
);

$logger->warning('My Message', $logContext->toArray());
