Max files in Laravel 5 logs

Question

How can I define the maximum number of log files in Laravel 5. I use daily log rotate, and I have "only" 5 log files in storage, I want to have the past 30 days, but I don't know how to do this, and I did not found any clue.

Answer 1

Ok, it's now possible since v5.0.23. You just need to update laravel, and add this in your config/app.php file:

'log_max_files' => 30

On Laravel 5.6 You can find config/logging.php file:

    'daily' => [
        'driver' => 'daily',
        'path' => storage_path('logs/laravel.log'),
        'level' => 'debug',
        'days' => 30, // 0 for unilimitted logs
    ],

Answer 2

On Laravel 5.6 open file config/logging.php on array daily change: 'days' => 30

If you want unlimited logs just put 0 instead 30.
