Log file truncating

[benbyf]

Is there configuration in PW for truncating the sizes of log files? Or is that something we need to do manually in Linux?

Thanks, am i write in saying this is something in need to execute in my modules or templates for each log??? Would be nice to have a site wide log config setting.

My idea:
cronjob call every day this script.

// include index.php from pw

foreach($log->getLogs() as $logFile) {
    $log->prune($logFile['name'], 7);
}

Thats cool. Maybe there's a hook somewhere for whenever there is a log save event instead maybe...

[gs-df]

// ready.php
$this->addHook('WireLog::save', function(HookEvent $event) {
	// Prune all log files
    foreach(wire('log')->getLogs() as $logFile) {
    	wire('log')->prune($logFile['name'], 7);
	}

	// Or just the current log file
	wire('log')->prune($event->arguments[0], 7);
});

Not really tested ?

Hi @benbyf

Maybe this module does help you too:
