MIGRATION.md

Migration Guide

1) Get the webhook URL for your channel on Discord

Click on the channel settings icon and select integrations.

2) Create a new entry in your .env

LOG_DISCORD_WEBHOOK_URL=<insert-the-webhook-url-here>

3) Edit the config/logging.php file

use Monolog\Handler\SlackWebhookHandler;

// ...

// place this inside the channels array
'discord' => [
    'driver'       => 'monolog',
    'level'        => env('LOG_LEVEL', 'error'),
    'handler'      => SlackWebhookHandler::class,
    'handler_with' => [
        'webhookUrl'             => env('LOG_DISCORD_WEBHOOK_URL') . '/slack',
        'username'               => env('APP_NAME') . ' (' . env('APP_ENV') . ')',
        'includeContextAndExtra' => true,
        'useAttachment'          => true,
        'useShortAttachment'     => true,
    ],
],

4) Adjust your error reporting channel. Example for stack

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

5) Done! Have a nice day.

Additional Info

The error logging config appends a /slack to the URL to make the logging compatible.

Don't forget to append /slack to your discord webhook URLs ff you need a slack compatible webhook for something else than logging.
