Common problems with logs

Today’s quest:

Find the sweet spot of logging, where all the information needed to fix the problem is there, yet there’s not too much information so that the relevant one is easily available.

Finger crossed strategy

$logger = new Logger('my-app');

$streamHandler = new StreamHandler('/var/log/my-app/error.log’);$formatter = new LineFormatter( "[%datetime%-%channel%[%level_name%] %message% %context% %extra%\n”);$formatter->ignoreEmptyContextAndExtra();$streamHandler->setFormatter($formatter);

$b64p = 'aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cueW91dHViZS5jb20vd2F0Y2g/dj1kUXc0dzlXZ1hjUQ==';$slackHandler = new SlackHandler($b64p, '#general', 'BugsyBot');

$fcg = new FingersCrossedHandler( [$streamHandler, $slackHandler,], Logger::ERROR);$logger->setHandler($fcg);

// ...

$logger->info('...');$logger->info('...');$logger->warning('...');

$logger->error('...'); // all handlers are triggered

$logger = new Logger('my-app');

$streamHandler = new StreamHandler('/var/log/my-app/error.log’);$formatter = new LineFormatter( "[%datetime%-%channel%[%level_name%] %message% %context% %extra%\n”);$formatter->ignoreEmptyContextAndExtra();$streamHandler->setFormatter($formatter);

$b64p = 'aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cueW91dHViZS5jb20vd2F0Y2g/dj1kUXc0dzlXZ1hjUQ==';$slackHandler = new SlackHandler($b64p, '#general', 'BugsyBot');

$fcg = new WhatFailureGroupHandler( [$streamHandler, $slackHandler,]);$logger->setHandler($fcg);
