Utopia framework audit library is simple and lite library for managing application user logs. This library is aiming to be as simple and easy to learn and use. This library is maintained by the Appwrite team.
Although this library is part of the Utopia Framework project it is dependency free, and can be used as standalone with any other PHP project or framework.
Install using composer:
composer require utopia-php/auditInit the audit object:
<?php
require_once __DIR__ . '/../../vendor/autoload.php';
use PDO;
use PDO;
use Utopia\Audit\Audit;
use Utopia\Cache\Cache;
use Utopia\Cache\Adapter\None as NoCache;
use Utopia\Database\Adapter\MySQL;
use Utopia\Database\Database;
$dbHost = '127.0.0.1';
$dbUser = 'travis';
$dbPass = '';
$dbPort = '3306';
$pdo = new PDO("mysql:host={$dbHost};port={$dbPort};charset=utf8mb4", $dbUser, $dbPass, [
PDO::ATTR_TIMEOUT => 3, // Seconds
PDO::ATTR_PERSISTENT => true,
PDO::ATTR_DEFAULT_FETCH_MODE => PDO::FETCH_ASSOC,
PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE => PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION,
PDO::ATTR_EMULATE_PREPARES => true,
PDO::ATTR_STRINGIFY_FETCHES => true,
]);
$cache = new Cache(new NoCache());
$database = new Database(new MySQL($pdo),$cache);
$database->setNamespace('namespace');
$audit = new Audit($database);
$audit->setup();Create Log
A simple example for logging a user action in the audit DB.
$userId = 'user-unique-id';
$event = 'deleted'; // Log specific action name
$resource = 'database/document-1'; // Resource unique ID (great for filtering specific logs)
$userAgent = 'Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_14_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/79.0.3945.88 Safari/537.36'; // Set user-agent
$ip = '127.0.0.1'; // User IP
$location = 'US'; // Country name or code
$data = ['key1' => 'value1','key2' => 'value2']; // Any key-value pair you need to log
$audit->log($userId, $event, $resource, $userAgent, $ip, $location, $data);Get Logs By User
Fetch all logs by given user ID
$logs = $audit->getLogsByUser(
'userId' // User unique ID
); // Returns an array of all logs for specific userGet Logs By User and Action
Fetch all logs by given user ID and a specific event name
$logs = $audit->getLogsByUserAndEvents(
'userId', // User unique ID
['update', 'delete'] // List of selected event to fetch
); // Returns an array of all logs for specific user filtered by given actionsGet Logs By Resource
Fetch all logs by a given resource name
$logs = $audit->getLogsByResource(
'resource-name', // Resource Name
); // Returns an array of all logs for the specific resourceUtopia Framework requires PHP 8.0 or later. We recommend using the latest PHP version whenever possible.
