Symfony ActivityLog Component

ActivityLogBundle - Extended doctrine loggable (StofDoctrineExtensionsBundle)

What's inside

ActivityLogBundle uses Loggable extension from StofDoctrineExtensionsBundle and DoctrineExtensions

This bundle extend Gedmo\Loggable\Entity\MappedSuperclass\AbstractLogEntry with below fields:

parentId - store depedency to "main entity"
parentClass - store "main entity" type
oldData - data that were changed
name - entry name (to show in activity log)
user - associations mapping with user who changed data

Bundle contain extended listener (LoggableListener) to process above fields.

Also available formatter to preprocessing activity log before show in view (html).

Installation

Pretty simple with Composer, run:

composer require madmis/activity-log-bundle

Then enable the bundle in the kernel:

public function registerBundles()
{
    $bundles = [
        // ...
        new ActivityLogBundle\ActivityLogBundle(),
        // ...
    ];
    ...
}

Configure bundle:

# app/config/config.yml
doctrine:
    dbal:
        #...
    orm:
        #...
        resolve_target_entities:
            Symfony\Component\Security\Core\User\UserInterface: AppBundle\Entity\User
        mappings:
            gedmo_loggable:
                type: annotation
                prefix: Gedmo\Loggable\Entity
                dir: "%kernel.root_dir%/../src/AppBundle/Entity/"
                alias: GedmoLoggable
                is_bundle: false

stof_doctrine_extensions:
    class:
        loggable: ActivityLogBundle\Listener\LoggableListener
    orm:
        default:
            loggable: true

Create entity and make it loggable:

namespace AppBundle\Entity;

use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping as ORM;
use Gedmo\Mapping\Annotation as Gedmo;
use ActivityLogBundle\Entity\Interfaces\StringableInterface;

/**
 * @package AppBundle\Entity
 * @ORM\Entity(repositoryClass="ProjectRepository")
 * @ORM\Table
 * @Gedmo\Loggable(logEntryClass="ActivityLogBundle\Entity\LogEntry")
 */
class Project implements StringableInterface
{
    /**
     * @var int
     * @ORM\Id
     * @ORM\Column(type="integer")
     * @ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy="AUTO")
     */
    private $id;

    /**
     * @var string
     * @ORM\Column(type="string", length=128)
     * @Gedmo\Versioned
     */
    private $name;

    /**
     * @var string
     * @ORM\Column(type="string", length=16)
     * @Gedmo\Versioned
     */
    private $key;

    //...

StringableInterface required to save LogEntry::name.

Then run command to update database schema:

php bin/console doctrine:schema:update --force

Using formatter to data view

Formatter class: ActivityLogBundle\Service\ActivityLog\ActivityLogFormatter Formatter service: activity_log.formatter

required: LoggerInterface as dependency

By default entity without custom formatter class formatted by ActivityLogBundle\Service\ActivityLog\EntityFormatter\UniversalFormatter

But you can implement custom formatter for each entity.

To register a custom formatter, add a service tag with the following (required) properties:

name: 'activity_log.formatter'
entity: Class name of the entity that should be formatted by the registered formatter

Example:

services:
    app.formatter.project:
        class: AppBundle\Service\ActivityFormatter\Project
        tags:
            -  { name: activity_log.formatter, entity: 'Project'}

As example formatter for AppBundle\Entity\Project entity:

namespace AppBundle\Service\ActivityFormatter;

class Project extends AbstractFormatter implements FormatterInterface
{
    /**
     * @param LogEntryInterface $log
     * @return array
     */
    public function format(LogEntryInterface $log)
    {
        $result = $log->toArray();

        if ($log->isCreate()) {
            $result['message'] = sprintf('The <b>Project <span class="font-green-jungle">"%s"</span></b> was created.', $log->getName());
        } else if ($log->isRemove()) {
            $result['message'] = sprintf('The <b>Project <span class="font-red-flamingo">"%s"</span></b> was removed.', $log->getName());
        } else if ($log->isUpdate()) {
            $result['message'] = '<dl><dt>The <b>Project <span class="font-yellow-gold">"%s"</span></b> was updated.</dt>%s</dl>';
            $data = $log->getData();
            $oldData = $log->getOldData();

            $text = '';
            foreach ($data as $field => $value) {
                $value = $this->normalizeValue($field, $value);

                if (array_key_exists($field, $oldData)) {
                    $oldValue = $this->normalizeValue($field, $oldData[$field]);
                    $subText = sprintf('from "<b>%s</b>" to "<b>%s</b>".', $oldValue, $value);
                } else {
                    $subText = sprintf('to "<b>%s</b>".', $value);
                }
                $text .= sprintf('<dd>Property "<b>%s</b>" was changed: %s</dd>', $field, $subText);
            }

            $result['message'] = sprintf($result['message'], $log->getName(), $text);
        } else {
            $result['message'] = "Undefined action: {$log->getAction()}.";
        }

        return $result;
    }
}

If entity has association with other entity it can be resolved by AbstractFormatter::normalizeValue. This method call method from the entity formatter class, which named as appropriate property.

For example, Project entity has association mapping ManyToOne to Type entity. To get Type name we can add method type to Project formatter:

namespace AppBundle\Service\ActivityFormatter;

class Project extends AbstractFormatter implements FormatterInterface
{
    //...
    
    /**
     * @param array $value
     * @return string
     */
    protected function type(array $value)
    {
        if (isset($value['id'])) {
            /** @var Type $entity */
            $entity = $this->entityManager->getRepository('AppBundle:Type')
                ->find($value['id']);

            if ($entity) {
                return $entity->getName();
            }
        }

        return '';
    }

As result we have formatted response to show in view.

Using activity log in controller

$em = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager();
// get log entries for entity
$entries =  $em
            ->getRepository('AppBundle:LogEntry')
            ->getLogEntriesQueryBuilder($entity)
           ->getQuery()
          ->getResult();
// format log entries to show in the view
$entries = $this
            ->get('activity_log.formatter')
            ->format($entries);

For $entity should be configured Entity formatter.
