How to change/block Laravel Monolog logging to 2 different locations

Laravel: How to change/block Monolog logging to 2 different locations

This code creates a Monolog JSON Formatter

LogServiceProvider->boot()

$filename = __DIR__.'/../json_logger.log';

// // Create the logger
$logger = new \Monolog\Logger('json_logger');

$stream_handler = new \Monolog\Handler\StreamHandler($filename);
$stream_handler->setFormatter( new \Monolog\Formatter\JsonFormatter() );

// Now add some handlers
$logger->pushHandler($stream_handler);
Log::pushHandler($stream_handler);

\Monolog\Registry::addLogger($logger);

Used like so

Log::info('My json-logger is now ready', 'file'=>__FILE__,'line'=>__LINE__]);

This will log to json_logger.log in json format

BUT will also log to storage/logs/laravel.log in standard format

I want to use JSON format exclusively in one location

If you have changed the LOG_CHANNEL channel to your chosen channel using LOG_CHANNEL=json and you are still logging to other channels you must also edit the default channel ('stack') to use only your chosen channel.

FROM

    'channels' => [
        'stack' => [
            'driver' => 'stack',
            'channels' => ['single', 'daily'],
            'ignore_exceptions' => false,
        ],
    ...

TO

    'channels' => [
        'stack' => [
            'driver' => 'stack',
            'channels' => ['json'],
            'ignore_exceptions' => false,
        ],
    ...

You can create a new channel inside logging.php

'json' => [
    'driver' => 'single',
    'path' => storage_path('logs/json.log'),
    'level' => 'debug',
    'formatter' => JsonFormatter::class,
],

Change your .env if you want to use it as default channel.

LOG_CHANNEL=json

Or you can say

Log::channel('json')->debug('message');
