Hi, I’ve created an SQL logger backend using LoggerBackends: GitHub - vkryukov/logger_backends_sql · GitHub.
It safely stores all metadata and can be configured to use an existing Repo and/or Schema.
The simplest setup uses an SQLite3 database for logs:
# config/config.exs
config :logger, LoggerBackends.SQL,
level: :debug,
path: "./logs.sqlite"
Logs will be written to the logs table. You can also use an existing repo and customize the table name:
# config/config.exs
config :logger, LoggerBackends.SQL,
repo: MyApp.Repo,
table_name: "log_messages"
You can use your own Schema for log messages - just ensure the schema module defines a changeset/1 function that accepts time, message, and meta arguments.
Feedback welcome!

While we are here, I would like people’s thoughts on the best way to configure the backend during the runtime.
LoggerBackendsoffersconfigure/2, which can be called like this:and will send a
:configureevent to the backend that it can capture. The reference implementation forLoggerBackend.Consoleis here. This call will only succeed after a backend has already been added withLoggerBackend.add(LoggerBackends.SQL)(as someone needs to listen to these events).However, you definitely want to set the path to a SQLite log database before adding the backend to perform all the initialization in the backend’s
initfunction.Something like this would be nice
However,
LoggerBackends.add/2only processes the:flushoption and ignores everything else.So my current solution is to expose my own
configure/1to do the runtime config:The previous option with
LoggerBackend.add/2is IMHO cleaner, but requires changing the existing contract.Thoughts?
