Logging
*******
.. seealso::
Symfony documentation: `How to user Monolog to write logs <http://symfony.com/doc/current/cookbook/logging/monolog.html>`_
The symfony cookbook page about logging.
A channel for custom logging has been created to store sensitive data.
The channel is named ``chill``.
The installer of chill should be aware that this channel may contains sensitive data and encrypted during backup.
Logging to channel `chill`
============================
You should use the service named ``chill.main.logger``, as this :
.. code-block:: php
$logger = $this->get('chill.main.logger');
You should store data into context, not in the log himself, which should remains the same for the action.
Example of usage :
.. code-block:: php
$logger->info("An action has been performed about a person", array(
'person_lastname' => $person->getLastName(),
'person_firstname' => $person->getFirstName(),
'person_id' => $person->getId(),
'by_user' => $user->getUsername()
));
For further processing, it is a good idea to separate all fields (like firstname, lastname, ...) into different context keys.
By convention, you should store the username of the user performing the action under the ``by_user`` key.
