Laravel log viewer

TL;DR

Log Viewer for Laravel 5, 6, 7 & 8 (still compatible with 4.2 too) and Lumen. Install with composer, create a route to LogViewerController. No public assets, no vendor routes, works with and/or without log rotate. Inspired by Micheal Mand's Laravel 4 log viewer (works only with laravel 4.1)

What ?

Small log viewer for laravel. Looks like this:

Install (Laravel)

Install via composer

composer require rap2hpoutre/laravel-log-viewer

Add Service Provider to config/app.php in providers section

Rap2hpoutre\LaravelLogViewer\LaravelLogViewerServiceProvider::class,

Add a route in your web routes file:

Route::get('logs', [\Rap2hpoutre\LaravelLogViewer\LogViewerController::class, 'index']);

Go to http://myapp/logs or some other route

Install (Lumen)

Install via composer

composer require rap2hpoutre/laravel-log-viewer

Add the following in bootstrap/app.php:

$app->register(\Rap2hpoutre\LaravelLogViewer\LaravelLogViewerServiceProvider::class);

Explicitly set the namespace in app/Http/routes.php:

$router->group(['namespace' => '\Rap2hpoutre\LaravelLogViewer'], function() use ($router) {
    $router->get('logs', 'LogViewerController@index');
});

Advanced usage

Customize view

Publish log.blade.php into /resources/views/vendor/laravel-log-viewer/ for view customization:

php artisan vendor:publish \
  --provider="Rap2hpoutre\LaravelLogViewer\LaravelLogViewerServiceProvider" \
  --tag=views

Edit configuration

Publish logviewer.php configuration file into /config/ for configuration customization:

php artisan vendor:publish \
  --provider="Rap2hpoutre\LaravelLogViewer\LaravelLogViewerServiceProvider"

Troubleshooting

If you got a InvalidArgumentException in FileViewFinder.php error, it may be a problem with config caching. Double check installation, then run php artisan config:clear.
