timeStampFormat: What format of time should be appended in each log entry.logLevelsEnabled: How many levels of log should be stored or published, default is all but you can choose to send only ERROR or SEVERE to save data.Here we are defining the following things: In order to add this plugin to the flutter project, simply add this line in pubspec file: dependencies: flutter_logs: Next step is to initialize flutter_logs with some configurations: await FlutterLogs.initLogs( logLevelsEnabled:, timeStampFormat: TimeStampFormat.TIME_FORMAT_READABLE, directoryStructure: DirectoryStructure.FOR_DATE, logTypesEnabled:, logFileExtension: LogFileExtension.LOG, logsWriteDirectoryName: "FlutterLogs", logsExportDirectoryName: "FlutterLogs/Exported" ) Log data on local storage in case if complete log trail is needed.Simple MQTT configuration & auto publisher on the topic.Here are some of the major features of this plugin: This plugin is made specifically to make it easier to ship logs to ELK stack in real-time. Thankfully, the process of creating this schema is made simple using a flutter logging plugin, which we are going to discuss next. The logs will be written to file as JSON-delimited string. Each log entry will be embedded in this schema before publishing it to MQTT.
Here “message” field contains the log information & other fields are used for searching & filtering logs. This is because we are using a JSON filter plugin. Some of the fields, you see above are auto inserted by Logstah itself. We narrowed down the schema to few values, here is a sample of the schema: The details of this schema can be found here. In order to show logs on the Kibana dashboard and to be able to apply filters on logged data, ELK requires the log to be embedded in a pre-defined schema. filebeat -c filebeat.yml -e -d "*" ELK Schema: Following services & plugins must be started: Elastic Service. Once all configuration is done, we have to run them all from the command line. Here is the simple flow, of how it should work:
FILEBEATS FOR WINDOWS DOWNLOAD
Once we have traced the logs, we should be able to download the complete log file for auditing.
In case of any reported issue, we should be able to just open up the website and search for logs by applying appropriate filters. We needed logs for specific events from our apps sent to a centralized remote server in real-time, where they could be stored in a file separated by organizations & users. Logstash is a server‑side data processing pipeline that ingests data from multiple sources simultaneously, transforms it, and then sends it to a “stash” like Elasticsearch. TL DR: Elasticsearch is a search and analytics engine. ELK Stack is a collection of open-source projects that when combined can help you with the above problem. How can you manage thousands of log entries coming from multiple sources every day? The solution is made easier with ELK Stack. The solution for this is to have exception logs stored on your device using any logger, it’s also good to have audit logs & any crash reporting service, but if you have lots of apps, managing the logs itself becomes a hurdle. If you have the logs, figuring out the issue becomes less of a problem because eventually, you will be able to trace the pattern but on the other hand, if you don’t have the logs at all, figuring out an issue can be a nightmare. There will always be exceptions and problems in the production environment but it doesn’t have to be a stressful process to retrieve the logs. In the past, we did try some solutions, but none of them were consistent & reliable. Logs availability has always been the biggest issue for my team from the beginning. The first step towards solving the issues on your apps is to reduce the time it takes to figure out the issues.
