<subsection name="Database table">
<p>Since version 2.3.0, the appender will <strong>not</strong> create a database table by itself. You
have to create a database table yourself. The reason for this is that various databases use various
create statements and column types. Some common databases are covered in this chapter.</p>
<p>By default the table should contain the following columns: </p>
<ul>
<li>timestamp DATETIME</li>
<li>logger VARCHAR</li>
<li>level VARCHAR</li>
<li>message VARCHAR</li>
<li>thread VARCHAR</li>
<li>file VARCHAR</li>
<li>line VARCHAR</li>
</ul>
<p>If you wish to use an alternative table structure, see the next chapter.</p>
<p>The following examples show CREATE TABLE statements for some popular databases.</p>
<h4>MySQL</h4>
<pre class="prettyprint">
CREATE TABLE log4php_log (
timestamp DATETIME,
logger VARCHAR(256),
level VARCHAR(32),
message VARCHAR(4000),
thread INTEGER,
file VARCHAR(255),
line VARCHAR(10)
);
</pre>
<h4>SQLite</h4>
<p>SQLite does not have a datetime type, so varchar is used instead.</p>
<pre class="prettyprint">
CREATE TABLE log4php_log (
timestamp VARCHAR(50),
logger VARCHAR(256),
level VARCHAR(32),
message VARCHAR(4000),
thread INTEGER,
file VARCHAR(255),
line VARCHAR(10)
);
</pre>
<h4>PostgreSQL</h4>
<pre class="prettyprint">
CREATE TABLE log4php_log (
timestamp TIMESTAMP,
logger VARCHAR(256),
level VARCHAR(32),
message VARCHAR(4000),
thread INTEGER,
file VARCHAR(255),
line VARCHAR(10)
);
</pre>
</subsection>
<subsection name="Advanced configuration" id="Advanced_configuration">
<p>Parameters <code>insertSql</code> and <code>insertPattern</code> can be used to change how events are
inserted into the database. By manipulating them, it is possible to use a custom table structure to
suit your needs.</p>
<p class="alert alert-warning"><strong>WARNING:</strong> Change these settings only if you are sure you
know what you are doing.</p>
<p>The default values of these parameters are:</p>
<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Parameter</th>
<th>Default value</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>insertSql</td>
<td>INSERT INTO __TABLE__ (timestamp, logger, level, message, thread, file, line) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>insertPattern</td>
<td>%date{Y-m-d H:i:s},%logger,%level,%message,%pid,%file,%line</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p>The string <em>__TABLE__</em> in <code>insertSql</code> will be replaced with the table name
defined in <code>table</code>. Question marks in <code>insertSql</code> will be replaced by evaluated
<code><a href="../layouts/pattern.html">LoggerPatternLayout</a></code> format strings defined in
<code>insertPattern</code>. See <code><a href="../layouts/pattern.html">LoggerPatternLayout</a></code>
documentation for format string description.</p>
</subsection>
<subsection name="Examples">
<h4>Example 1</h4>
<p>The simplest example is connecting to an SQLite database which does not require any
authentication.</p>
<p>SQLite databases are contained in simple files and don't reuquire a server to run. This example will
log to the database contained in <code>/var/log/log.sqlite</code>.</p>
<p>First, create a database and a table for logging. In this example, let's create the database at
<code>/tmp/log.db</code>.</p>
<pre><![CDATA[
$ sqlite3 /tmp/log.db
SQLite version 3.7.9 2011-11-01 00:52:41
Enter ".help" for instructions
Enter SQL statements terminated with a ";"
sqlite> CREATE TABLE log4php_log (
...> timestamp VARCHAR(256),
...> logger VARCHAR(256),
...> level VARCHAR(32),
...> message VARCHAR(4000),
...> thread INTEGER,
...> file VARCHAR(255),
...> line VARCHAR(10)
...> );
]]></pre>
<p>When the database is set up, use the following configuration to set up log4php.</p>
<div class="auto-tabs">
<ul>
<li>XML</li>
<li>PHP</li>
</ul>
<div class="tab-content" >
<div class="tab-pane">
<pre class="prettyprint"><![CDATA[
<configuration xmlns="http://logging.apache.org/log4php/">
<appender name="default" class="LoggerAppenderPDO">
<param name="dsn" value="sqlite:/tmp/log.db" />
</appender>
<root>
<appender_ref ref="default" />
</root>
</configuration>
]]></pre>
</div>
<div class="tab-pane">
<pre class="prettyprint"><![CDATA[
array(
'appenders' => array(
'default' => array(
'class' => 'LoggerAppenderPDO',
'params' => array(
'dsn' => 'sqlite:/tmp/log.db',
),
),
),
'rootLogger' => array(
'appenders' => array('default'),
),
);
]]></pre>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<p>Now the database is ready to accept some logging data.</p>
<pre class="prettyprint linenums"><![CDATA[
require 'log4php/Logger.php';
Logger::configure('config.xml');
$log = Logger::getLogger('foo');
$log->info("foo");
$log->info("bar");
$log->info("baz");
]]></pre>
<p>And you can .</p>
<pre><![CDATA[
$ sqlite3 /tmp/log.db
SQLite version 3.7.9 2011-11-01 00:52:41
Enter ".help" for instructions
Enter SQL statements terminated with a ";"

2012-08-18 17:14:11|foo|INFO|baz|23531|/home/ihabunek/apache/sqlite.php|7
]]></pre>
<h4>Example 2</h4>
<p>A slightly more complex example is connecting to a MySQL database which requires user credentials
to be provided. Additionally, a user-specified table name is used.</p>
<p>First, a log table has to be created. For this example a database named <code>logdb</code> will be
created, and within it a table named <code>log</code>.</p>
<pre><![CDATA[
$ mysql -u root -p
Enter password: *******
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 47
Server version: 5.5.24-0ubuntu0.12.04.1 (Ubuntu)
mysql> CREATE DATABASE logdb;
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> USE logdb;
Database changed
mysql> CREATE TABLE log (
-> timestamp DATETIME,
-> logger VARCHAR(256),
-> level VARCHAR(32),
-> message VARCHAR(4000),
-> thread INTEGER,
-> file VARCHAR(255),
-> line VARCHAR(10)
-> );
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec)
]]></pre>
<p>The following configuration allows log4php to write to the newly created table.</p>
<div class="auto-tabs">
<ul>
<li>XML</li>
<li>PHP</li>
</ul>
<div class="tab-content" >
<div class="tab-pane">
<pre class="prettyprint"><![CDATA[
<configuration xmlns="http://logging.apache.org/log4php/">
<appender name="default" class="LoggerAppenderPDO">
<param name="dsn" value="mysql:host=localhost;dbname=logdb" />
<param name="user" value="root" />
<param name="password" value="secret" />
<param name="table" value="log" />
</appender>
<root>
<appender_ref ref="default" />
</root>
</configuration>
]]></pre>
</div>
<div class="tab-pane">
<pre class="prettyprint"><![CDATA[
array(
'appenders' => array(
'default' => array(
'class' => 'LoggerAppenderPDO',
'params' => array(
'dsn' => 'mysql:host=localhost;dbname=logdb',
'user' => 'root',
'password' => 'secret',
'table' => 'log',
),
),
),
'rootLogger' => array(
'appenders' => array('default'),
),
);
]]></pre>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<p>Now the database is ready to accept some logging data.</p>
<pre class="prettyprint linenums"><![CDATA[
require 'log4php/Logger.php';
Logger::configure('config.xml');
$log = Logger::getLogger('main');
$log->info("foo");
$log->info("bar");
$log->info("baz");
]]></pre>
<p>Finally, to see the newly logged data.</p>
<pre><![CDATA[
$ mysql -u root -p
