    ],

Publish config using Laravel Artisan CLI.

php artisan vendor:publish

and select the option Provider: ITelmenko\Logger\Laravel\Providers\MonologMysqlHandlerServiceProvider

Migrate tables.

php artisan migrate

Add ITelmenko\Logger\Laravel\Exceptions\MysqlLoggerInsertException into your ExceptionHandler to prevent looping when a database connection fails:

public function register()
{
    $this->reportable(function (Throwable $e) {
        if ($this->shouldReport($e) && app()->bound('sentry')) {
            app('sentry')->captureException($e);
        }
        if ($e instanceof MysqlLoggerInsertException) {
            return false; // prevent looping 
        }
    });
}

Using

Somewhere in your application

Log::channel('mysql')->info('Something happened!');
