Storage configuration

Storage configuration is achieved using the YAML configuration file described in the General configuration section.

Audit tables naming format

doctrine-provider

Audit table names are composed of a prefix, a name and a suffix. By default, the prefix is empty and the suffix is _audit. Though, they can be customized.

dh_auditor:
    providers:
        doctrine:
            table_prefix: ~
            table_suffix: '_audit'

Storage services

doctrine-provider

By default, auditor-bundle stores audits using Doctrine's default entity manager doctrine.orm.default_entity_manager. However, auditor-bundle lets you store audits using several entity managers by adding them to the storage_services list.

Note

• if one of the current audited entity operation fails, audit data is still persisted to the secondary database which is very bad (reference to entity data which doesn't exist in the main database or reference to entity data in main database which doesn't reflect changes logged in audit data)
• if one of the current audited entity operation succeed, audit data persistence in the secondary database still can fail which is bad but can be acceptable in some use cases (depending on how critical audit data is for your application/business, missing audit data could be acceptable)

Storage mapper

doctrine-provider

A storage mapper is a callable that routes audit events to storage services. It's up to the storage mapper to choose which storage service should be used to persist audits logs for a given entity.

A storage mapper expects 2 parameters as arguments and returns an object implementing StorageServiceInterface

• an entity FQCN (string)
• the list of registered storage services indexed by name (array)

Example

Below is an example of a storage mapper MyStorageMapper routing audit logs from MyEntity1 and MyEntity2 to a particular storage service, all other audit logs are persisted by another storage service.

<?php
namespace App;

use App\Entity\MyEntity1; 
use App\Entity\MyEntity2; 
use App\Entity\MyEntity3; 
use DH\Auditor\Provider\Service\StorageServiceInterface;

/**
 * MyStorageMapper is an invokable service
 */
class MyStorageMapper
{
    // the service expects 2 parameters and should return an object 
    // implementing StorageServiceInterface
    public function __invoke(string $entity, array $storageServices): StorageServiceInterface {
        return \in_array($entity, [MyEntity1::class, MyEntity2::class], true) ? $storageServices['db1'] : $storageServices['db2'];
    }
}

# config/packages/dh_auditor.yaml
dh_auditor:
    providers:
        doctrine:
            # Invokable service that maps audit events to storage services
            storage_mapper: my_storage_mapper.map_storage
