This is a backport package that allows Laravel-ActivityLog to work with PHP 5.6. By design the namespace of the original project has been left untouched Spatie\Activitylog. This allows for full use of the documentation with only minor modifications:
Change
composer require spatie/laravel-activitylogto
composer require linearsoft/laravel-activitylog-backportFor your convenience the Activity facade infrastructure has been restored in this backport. All you need to do is register the facade:
// config/app.php
'aliases' => [
...
'Activity' => Spatie\Activitylog\ActivitylogFacade::class,
];All testing has been stripped from the backport version.
For the most part most all bugs & requests should be submitted to the Spatie Team. And the fixes/features will eventually be backported into this project.
If, however, you found a problem specifically with the backport version please it via GitHub
The licensing has been modified from MIT to the GPLv3 License - see the LICENSE file for details.
You are requested, however, to still follow the Postcardware "requirements" of the original package.
The spatie/laravel-activity package provides easy to use functions to log the activities of the users of your app. It can also automatically log model events. All activity will be stored in the activity_log table.
Here's a litte demo of how you can use it:
activity()->log('Look, I logged something');You can retrieve all activity using the Spatie\Activitylog\Models\Activity model.
Activity::all();Here's a more advanced example:
activity()
->performedOn($anEloquentModel)
->causedBy($user)
->withProperties(['customProperty' => 'customValue'])
->log('Look, I logged something');
$lastLoggedActivity = Activity::all()->last();
$lastLoggedActivity->subject; //returns an instance of an eloquent model
$lastLoggedActivity->causer; //returns an instance of your user model
$lastLoggedActivity->getExtraProperty('customProperty'); //returns 'customValue'
$lastLoggedActivity->description; //returns 'Look, I logged something'Here's an example on event logging.
$newsItem->name = 'updated name';
$newsItem->save();
//updating the newsItem will cause an activity being logged
$activity = Activity::all()->last();
$activity->description; //returns 'updated'
$activity->subject; //returns the instance of NewsItem that was createdCalling $activity->changes will return this array:
[
'attributes' => [
'name' => 'updated name',
'text' => 'Lorum',
],
'old' => [
'name' => 'original name',
'text' => 'Lorum',
],
