Footprint

A laravel package viewing clients IPs, browser information and Device Operating System.

Note: at this point I would strongly recommend use of route names.

To log view you can use the Footprint static logTrail method passing request object as parameter

<?php
use Footprint;
// log trail
public function index(Request $request){
    Footprint::logTrail($request);
    return view('welcome');
}
// log trail with description
public function task(Request $request){
    $request->description = "Task manager";
    Footprint::logTrail($request);
    return view('task');
}

Installation

Supported version Laravel 7.x and above.

With Composer

$ composer require codedreamer/footprint

{
    "require": {
        "codedreamer/footprint": "^1.0.0"
    }
}

$ composer install

Locate Laravel config/app.php add providers and aliases facades

<?php
 'providers' => [
    App\Providers\RouteServiceProvider::class,
    Codedreamer\Footprint\FootprintServiceProvider::class,
    ..................
 ]
 'aliases' => [
    'View' => Illuminate\Support\Facades\View::class,
    'Footprint' => Codedreamer\Footprint\Facades\Footprint::class,
    ..................
 ]

Now publish package vendor to enable view customization and migration

$ php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Codedreamer\Footprint\FootprintServiceProvider"

Now run the migration command to migrate footprints table

$ php artisan migrate

Docs

To log every incoming authentication request add the Footprint static class inside the authenticate request middleware class

<?php
namespace App\Http\Middleware;
use Illuminate\Auth\Middleware\Authenticate as Middleware;
use Footprint;
class Authenticate extends Middleware
{
    /**
     * Get the path the user should be redirected to when they are not authenticated.
     *
     * @param  \Illuminate\Http\Request  $request
     * @return string|null
     */
    protected function redirectTo($request)
    {
        // log trail
        Footprint::logTrail($request);
        if (! $request->expectsJson()) {
            return route('login');
        }
    }
}

To log user login / register add the following line to Auth\LoginController or Auth\RegisterController

<?php
namespace App\Http\Middleware;
use Illuminate\Auth\Middleware\Authenticate as Middleware;
use Footprint;
class LoginController extends Controller
{
    // an example
    protected function login($request)
    {
        // log trail
        Footprint::logTrail($request);
        // code here...
    }
}
