protounit/watchtower

Monolog wrapper that sends your logs to Telegram channel

protounit/Watchtower

Telegram handler for Monolog. Send log info to channel with pretty formatting and useful information, _(*1)

, _(*2)

Inspired by monolog-telegram, _(*3)

Dependencies

monolog/monolog guzzlehttp/guzzle, _(*4)

How it works

• Watchtower handle Monolog methods to send messages
• After text formatting it creates fork of process and send message via guzzle
• Parent process doing nothing so you don't wait until it stops requesting Telegram API
• Child process waits for response and die after job is done
• If you set config option 'useFork' => false guzzle will wait for response from Telegram API and hold your app till

Too much messages per time could eat all of your RAM because there is no fork bomb detectors!, _(*5)

Install
