Check your database settings and run migration from your console:

To access the module, you need to add this to your application configuration:
......
'modules' => [
'actionlog' => [
'class' => 'cakebake\actionlog\Module',
],
],
......
Add the behavior actionlog to the models which should logged. While doing this, you can define which actions should be logged. Without defining these properties, all actions (create, update, delete) except the index action will be logged:
......
public function behaviors()
{
return [
'actionlog' => [
'class' => 'cakebake\actionlog\behaviors\ActionLogBehavior',
'logCreate' => true,
'logUpdate' => true,
'logDelete' => true,
'logIndex' => false,
],
];
}
......
Add the new menu item to your navbar:
......
['label' => 'Log', 'url' => ['/actionlog/log/index']],
......
You may have to customize the user rights for the access log view. You could do it by editing controllers/LogController.php.
This is an example in the login method from the module cakebake/yii2-accounts.
use cakebake\actionlog\model\ActionLog;
......
public function login()
{
$user = $this->getUser();
if ($this->validate()) {
ActionLog::add('success', $user->id); //log message for success
return Yii::$app->user->login($user, $this->rememberMe ? 3600 * 24 * 30 : 0);
} else {
ActionLog::add('error', $user->id); //log message for error
return false;
}
}
......
