Guzzle Http Not Logging In Laravel With Monolog - laravel

Question

I have this example:
use Monolog\Logger;
use GuzzleHttp\HandlerStack;
use GuzzleHttp\Middleware;
use GuzzleHttp\MessageFormatter;
public function getApiTest()
{
$stack = HandlerStack::create();
$stack->push(
Middleware::log(
new Logger('Logger'),
new MessageFormatter('{req_body} - {res_body}')
)
);
$client = new \GuzzleHttp\Client(
[
'base_uri' => 'http://apitesting.test/api/',
'handler' => $stack,
]
);
echo (string) $client->get('apitest')->getBody();
}
Which should be logging the request and response, from what I understand.
I have a custom logging channel built for logging to the database instead.. But I have now disabled it and went back to Laravel's file logging - but this is still not logging the Guzzle request/response.

Answer 1

It seems that the first parameter of the Middleware::log() is suppose to be the log channel that you are trying to use. For example:
$stack = HandlerStack::create();
$logChannel = app()->get('log')->channel('my-custom-channel');
$stack->push(
Middleware::log(
$logChannel,
new MessageFormatter('{req_body} - {res_body}')
)
);
That will tell the middleware which log channel that you are trying to use.
