PHP logging and reading JSON format log files _php tips

We sometimes need to record the operation of a user or an action event on the back end, and you can use the back-end language such as PHP to log the results of the operation to a journal file to facilitate testing and locating problems. In particular, these are running on the back end and the front-end can not directly see the results of the operation, then log files can be recorded, if you often with a number of interface development, such as Alipay interface, micro-credit card interface, logging is essential.

The PHP logging we're talking about is writing log information to a log file that distinguishes it from the memory log. The process of writing to the log is to open the log file (newly created if it does not exist), append the log contents to the log file, and then close the log file.

In this article, we save the contents of the log in JSON format, which is easy to read directly when necessary.

PHP Write log file
PHP Write log files need to open, write and close files and other operations, PHP has fopen (), fwrite () and fclose () three functions corresponding to it, and another function file_put_contents () it can also write a string of files, In fact, this function implements the call fopen (), fwrite (), and fclose () in turn. So we use file_put_contents () very concise. It is worth noting that the append content to the file needs to take the parameters: File_append.

In actual operation, we may encounter a large log file situation, so we set a maximum, the log file size exceeds this maximum value, back up the logs file, and then regenerate a new log file to record the new log content.

Before we write the log, we format the contents of the log in JSON, so we need to convert the content into JSON format and write to the file. Of course, you can also use JSON, or replace it with a format that other tools (such as log analysis tools) can read. In short, the content we write is convenient to read when necessary.

 function Writelog ($filename, $msg) { 
 $res = array (); 
 $res [' msg '] = $msg; 
 $res [' logtime '] = Date ("Y-m-d h:i:s", Time ()); 
 
 If the log file exceeds the specified size, the backup log file if 
 (file_exists ($filename) && (ABS (FileSize ($filename) > 1024000)) { 
  $ NewFileName = DirName ($filename). ' /'. Time (). ' -'. basename ($filename); 
  Rename ($filename, $newfilename); 
 } 
 
 If the new log file is created, remove the first character from the content comma 
 if (file_exists ($filename) && abs (FileSize ($filename)) >0) { 
  $ Content = ",". Json_encode ($res); 
 else{ 
  $content = Json_encode ($res); 
 } 
 
 The contents of the log file are appended 
 to the content file_put_contents ($filename, $content, file_append); 
  

PHP Read log file
If necessary, we read the log content for analysis, and we use PHP's file_get_contents () function to read the content directly and convert it to JSON format for easy invocation.

 function Readlog ($filename) { 
 if (file_exists ($filename)) { 
  $content = file_get_contents ($filename); 
  $json = Json_decode (' ['. $content. '] ', true); 
 } else{ 
  $json = ' {' msg ': ' The file does not exist. '} '; 
 } 
 return $json; 
 } 

Log write and read classes
Write and read the log function we often use, so I will write and read the function of the class, easy to invoke.

<?php * * Log class * Generate a log file every day, when the file exceeds the specified size, back up the log file and regenerate the new log file */class Log {private $maxsize = 1024000;//maximum file size 
 1M//write log public function Writelog ($filename, $msg) {$res = array (); 
 $res [' msg '] = $msg; 
 
 $res [' logtime '] = Date ("Y-m-d h:i:s", Time ()); If the log file exceeds the specified size, the backup log file if (file_exists ($filename) && (ABS (FileSize ($filename) > $this->maxsize)) {$new filename = dirname ($filename). ' /'. Time (). ' 
  -'. basename ($filename); 
 Rename ($filename, $newfilename); //If the new log file is created, remove the first character from the content comma if (file_exists ($filename) && abs (FileSize ($filename)) >0) {$content = ",". 
 Json_encode ($res); 
 }else{$content = Json_encode ($res); 
 ($filename, $content, File_append) appended to the contents of the log file after the content of the file_put_contents. //Read log public Function Readlog ($filename) {if (file_exists ($filename)) {$content = file_get_contents ($filena 
  ME); 
 $json = Json_decode (' ['. $content. '] ', true); 
 }else{$json = ' {' msg ': ' The file does not exist. '} '; 
} return $json; 
 }}?>

How to use:

$filename = "Logs/log_". Date ("Ymd", Time ()). ". TXT "; 
$msg = ' written in log '; 
$Log = new Log (); Instantiate 
$Log->writelog ($filename, $msg);//write log 
$loglist = $Log->readlog ($filename);//Read log
