A Laravel logging driver for seamless integration with AWS CloudWatch Logs.

Features

• Custom Monolog channel for sending logs to CloudWatch.
• Configurable AWS credentials, log group, stream, retention, and batch size.
• Supports string-based, class-based, and callable custom log formatters.
• Fully compatible with Laravel's Log facade and channel system.
• Simple, environment-based setup with a dedicated configuration file.

Requirements

• PHP: ^8.4
• Laravel: ^12.0 || ^13.0
• AWS SDK: Provided via phpnexus/cwh

Installation

1. Require the package via Composer:

   composer require aporat/laravel-cloudwatch-logger
   

2. Publish the configuration file:

   php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Aporat\CloudWatchLogger\CloudWatchLoggerServiceProvider" --tag="config"
   

   This will create a config/cloudwatch-logger.php file in your application.

Configuration

Step 1: Add the CloudWatch Channel

Add the following channel definition to your config/logging.php file's channels array. This will use the configuration file you published in the previous step.

'channels' => [
    // ... other channels

    'cloudwatch' => require config_path('cloudwatch-logger.php'),
],
