Be part of JetBrains PHPverse 2026 on June 9 – a free online event bringing PHP devs worldwide together.
I have 3 -5 task daily planned. what i want is to get log details based on task in separate file so that when i need to read the log, its not to big and easy to find. also, I want this log files to be created in a folder under log folder with date as name.
example:
-log (folder)
-2019-11-27 (folder)
-errors.log
-task1.log
-task2.log
-task3.log
-2019-11-28 (folder)
-errors.log
-task1.log
-task2.log
-task3.log
-2019-11-29 (folder)
-errors.log
-task1.log
-task2.log
-task3.log
and so on...
I don't think monolog supports folders. I have never found any reference to that sadly
Untested but you should be able to make a custom channel for each that logs to a file with the name task1-2019-11-20.log etc.
'task1' => [
'driver' => 'daily',
'path' => storage_path('logs/task1.log'),
'level' => 'debug',
'days' => 14,
],
And then log to each like this
Log::channel('task1')->info('Something happened!');
Another idea could by to try this. I am not sure if it will work though as the directory does not exist
'task1' => [
'driver' => 'single',
'path' => storage_path('logs/' . Carbon::now()->toDateString() . '/task1.log'),
'level' => 'debug',
],
do you have any idea about below ?
'stderr' => [
'driver' => 'monolog',
'handler' => StreamHandler::class,
'formatter' => env('LOG_STDERR_FORMATTER'),
'with' => [
'stream' => 'php://stderr',
],
],
I am quite certain that that is the error channel for artisan commands. It writes to the console.
