To log messages with the Symfony Logger component, first you need to configure a logger service in your Symfony application. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to do so:
composer require symfony/logger
services.yaml
file:services:
app.logger:
class: Symfony\Component\Logger\Logger
arguments: ['%kernel.logs_dir%']
use Symfony\Component\Logger\Logger;
use Psr\Log\LoggerInterface;
class MyClass
{
private $logger;
public function __construct(LoggerInterface $logger)
{
$this->logger = $logger;
}
public function myMethod()
{
$this->logger->info('This is an info message');
$this->logger->error('This is an error message');
}
}
For more advanced logging, you can also use Monolog which is integrated with the Symfony Logger component. Monolog provides a variety of handlers, formatters, and processors to customize your logging configuration. You can find more information on how to use Monolog with Symfony in the official Symfony documentation: https://symfony.com/doc/current/logging.html
