Usage

Middleware Usage

Events for laravel authentication scaffolding are listened for as providers and are enabled via middleware. You can add events to your routes and controllers via the middleware:

activity

Example to start recording page views using middlware in web.php:

Route::group(['middleware' => ['web', 'activity']], function () {
    Route::get('/', 'WelcomeController@welcome')->name('welcome');
});

This middlware can be enabled/disabled in the configuration settings.

Trait Usage

Events can be recorded directly by using the trait. When using the trait you can customize the event description.

To use the trait:

1. Include the call in the head of your class file:

    use jeremykenedy\LaravelLogger\App\Http\Traits\ActivityLogger;

2. Include the trait call in the opening of your class:

    use ActivityLogger;

3. You can record the activity my calling the traits method:

    ActivityLogger::activity("Logging this activity.");
