An extension package is highly recommended: Laravel Log Enhancer

Laravel Log Enhancer is an expansion package for Laravel 5.6 that can add additional data to the Laravel log. Thanks to the logging updates in Laravel 5.6, this package takes advantage of these features to extend logging and add data such as request headers, memory usage, session information, and other data.

You can add LogEnhancer to your log channel by modifying the tap attribute in config/logging.php:

'production_stack' => [
    'driver' => 'stack',
    'tap' => [Freshbitsweb\LaravelLogEnhancer\LogEnhancer::class],
    'channels' => ['daily', 'slack'],
],

After configuring the log channel, the following is an example of a log containing the default additional information:

[2018-03-30 05:07:23] local.INFO: Testing log {"inputs":[],"session":{"_token":"bZXCPViCzmaULIO6GsdLBbveC1yd3BbyH31zfT8c","_previous":{"url":"http://log-enhancer-demo.test"},"_flash":{"old":[],"new":[]}},"url":"/","ip":"127.0.0.1","http_method":"GET","server":"","referrer":null}

The following are the configuration options for enhanced logging (including information about the default configuration options):

<?php

return [
    &#39;log_request_details&#39; => true,
    'log_input_data' => true,
    'log_request_headers' => false,
    'log_session_data' => true,
    'log_memory_usage' => false,
    'log_git_data' => false,
    // 你可以明确不记录到日志中的用户输入信息
    'ignore_input_fields' => ['password', 'confirm_password']
];

Pay special attention to the ignore_input_fields option to avoid recording customer sensitive information in the log! ! ! For example, user password or credit card account number.

You need to run the interactive mode command artisan vendor:publish to activate the custom configuration above:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=laravel-log-enhancer-config

In a project based on Laravel 5.6, you can use Use composer to install this extension package using the following command:

composer require freshbitsweb/laravel-log-enhancer

Due to Laravel's automatic package discovery mechanism, you only need to install this package and configure it according to your program needs.
