Hi. I need some ideas and suggestions on how to implement this.
Basically I want to log certain user actions into database and presenting it to the administrator. For example, if user added a new post, the activity will be added into the database. You can say it’s app audit log but less formal.
What I have now is somewhat elementary. Whenever the controller saves a record, it will call a method in a model to save the activity into the database. Like so:-
// PostController
if($model->validate() && $model->save(false)) {
\app\models\Activity::saveRecord($type, $activity);
}
Then in Activity Model’s saveRecord method, it’ll switch $type to determine what activity just occurred (e.g. new post, post updated, etc) and then save the activity accordingly.
Any comments, thoughts and suggestion to improve it? Thanks.
