README

This is a fork of the monolog-mysql project to implement two important features that I need:

• Specify the database, and not just the table(s) on setup.
• Logs to two different tables, one for the messages and another for the context arrays.

Installation

monolog-mysql is available via composer. Just add the following line to your required section in composer.json and do a php composer.phar update.

"ftrotter/two-table-monolog-mysql": ">0.0.1"

Usage

Just use it as any other Monolog Handler, push it to the stack of your Monolog Logger instance. The Handler however needs some parameters:

• $pdo PDO Instance of your database. Pass along the PDO instantiation of your database connection with your database selected.
• $database The name of the database where the logs should be stored
• $message_table The table name where the message logs should be stored
• $context_table The table name where the context logs should be stored
• $level can be any of the standard Monolog logging levels. Use Monologs statically defined contexts. Defaults to Logger::DEBUG
• $bubble Defaults to true

Examples

Given that $pdo is your database instance, you could use the class as follows:

//Import class
use TwoMySQLHandler\TwoMySQLHandler;

//Create MysqlHandler
$mySQLHandler = new TwoMySQLHandler($pdo,"log_db", "log_message", "log_context", array('username', 'userid'), \Monolog\Logger::DEBUG);

$context = ['not_sure', 'what_goes_here']; //not clear to me how this works

//Create logger
$logger = new \Monolog\Logger($context);
$logger->pushHandler($mySQLHandler);

//Now you can use the logger, and further attach additional information
$logger->addWarning("This is a great message, woohoo!", array('username'  => 'John Doe', 'userid'  => 245));
