Laravel slack log but with additional fields and configuration - php

Question

In Laravel 5.6 I'm trying to make proper slack logs and I did:
'channels' => [
'stack' => [
'driver' => 'stack',
'channels' => ['single', 'slack'],
],
'slack' => [
'driver' => 'slack',
'url' => env('LOG_SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL'),
'username' => 'TEST',
'icon' => ':boom:',
'level' => 'info',
],
It works but I want to specify additional fields and maybe customize it a little if it match some other conditions.
I was looking at SlackWebhookHandler.php monolog file but not all parameters work in this configuration..
For example emoji and username doesn't work - I don't know if slack already has even options for changing bot username.
Other example is that in this file something it's called useAttachment and here it's just attachment - where the names are stored..?
Back to topic I did:
Log::info('added test',['test'=>'test']);
And it works, but for slack I want to send additional field, in every request for example:
'added test',['test'=>'test', 'more' => 'test2']
How I'm able to accomplish it? I need to connect to Log Class and slack driver in some way but I don't have idea how to do this?

Answer 1

I debugged myself to SlackRecord::getSlackData, there you see how he handles attachments and add's additional data to the record.
For me it totally fitted to set 'context' => true in logging.php for the Slack Channel and define a Processor which just add's the Data I need to the record
class SlackProcessor {
/**
* #param array $record
* #return array
*/
public function __invoke(array $record) {
$record["context"]["Env"] = env("LOG_SLACK_USERNAME", "localhost");
$record["context"]["Full URL"] = Request::fullUrl();
$record["extra"]["Request Data"] = Request::all();
return $record;
}
}
So maybe you could just debug again to getSlackData and see why he jumps over the attachment part you need.

I was able to get closer to solution but still not at all:
On logging.php now I have
'slack' => [
'driver' => 'slack',
'url' => env('LOG_SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL'),
'tap' => [App\Logging\SlackLogger::class],
'username' => 'BOT',
'attachment' => false,
'emoji' => ':boom:',
'level' => 'info',
],
I created App/Logging/SlackLogger.php:
namespace App\Logging;
use Monolog\Logger;
use Monolog\Handler\SlackWebhookHandler;
use Monolog\Formatter\LineFormatter;
use Monolog\Formatter\JsonFormatter;
class SlackLogger
{
/**
* Customize the given logger instance.
*
* #param \Illuminate\Log\Logger $logger
* #return void
*/
public function __invoke($logger)
{
$dateFormat = "Y-m-d H:i:s";
$checkLocal = env('APP_ENV');
foreach ($logger->getHandlers() as $handler) {
if ($handler instanceof SlackWebhookHandler) {
$output = "[$checkLocal]: %datetime% > %level_name% - %message% `%context% %extra%` :poop: \n";
$formatter = new LineFormatter($output, $dateFormat);
$handler->setFormatter($formatter);
$handler->pushProcessor(function ($record) {
$record['extra']['dummy'] = 'test';
return $record;
});
}
}
}
}
And It works only if I don't try to make custom attachment on slack.. When I'm trying to do:
$handler->pushProcessor(function ($record) {
$record['extra']['dummy'] = 'test';
$record['attachments'] = [
'color' => "#36a64f",
"title" => "Slack API Documentation",
"text" => "Optional text that appears within the attachment"
];
return $record;
});
the $record losts 'attachments' array.. I was checking it in SlackWebhookHandler in write function because at this pushProcessor at return it still exists, but not sending to slack. I know that can be related to $handler->setFormatter($formatter); but I if I remove It, the problem still exists - so I still don't know how to solve it.
