ExternalLogger-Android

External logger library for android applications. You can save logs in any component in your app (Activity, Service, Fragment). The data will be stored in memory even after exiting the application or turning off the device. You can access the information at any time, export the data to an email, to a text file or to a server. The data can be accessed by the tag filter, text, or log creation time. The data will be deleted by a function under your control.

Setup

Add it in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories:

allprojects {
 repositories {
  maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
 }
}

Step 2. Add the dependency:

dependencies {
 implementation 'com.github.guy-4444:ExternalLogger-Android:1.00.03'
}

Usage

ExternalLogger Constructor:

No Constructor needed anymore, it happens automatically with Content Provider.

ExternalLogger Functions:

Create Log:

// Simple call:
MyLoggerDB.getInstance().addLogToDB("Life", "Activity Created");

// Or create ExtLog first:
MyLoggerDB.getInstance().addLogToDB(new ExtLog("Click", "Button Clicked"));


// With onCompletelistener - Simple call:
MyLoggerDB.getInstance().addLogToDB("Click", "Button Clicked", new MyLoggerDB.LoggerDBCallBack_OnCompleted() {
    @Override
    public void onCompleted() {
        // Do something
    }
});

// With onCompletelistener - creating ExtLog first:
ExtLog log = new ExtLog("Click", "Button Clicked");
MyLoggerDB.getInstance().addLogToDB(log, new MyLoggerDB.LoggerDBCallBack_OnCompleted() {
    @Override
    public void onCompleted() {
        // Do something
    }
});

Read all logs: You can filter the logs by tag (like this example), text or time.

MyLoggerDB.getInstance().getAllLogsByTag("Click", new MyLoggerDB.LoggerDBCallBack_LogsReturned() {
    @Override
    public void logsReturned(List<ExtLog> logs) {
     // Run method in UIThread !
 // Because data processing happens external to the UI thread
 runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM HH:mm:ss");
                String str = "";
                if (logs != null) {
                    Collections.sort(logs);
                    Log.d("pttt", "SIZE= " + logs.size());
                    for (int i = 0; i < logs.size(); i++) {
                        str += logs.get(i).getUid()
                                + ". "
                                + sdf.format(logs.get(i).getTime())
                                + " - "
                                + logs.get(i).getTag()
                                + " "
                                + logs.get(i).getText()
                                + "\n";
                    }
                }
                data.setText(str);
            }
        });
    }
})

Sort by time:

ExtLog has a buildin comparator to sort the logs by time

Collections.sort(logs);

get logs from last hour:

MyLoggerDB.getInstance().getAllLogsFromDate(System.currentTimeMillis() - 3600*1000l, new MyLoggerDB.LoggerDBCallBack_LogsReturned() {
    @Override
    public void logsReturned(List<ExtLog> logs) {
        updateText(logs);
    }
});

Delete all logs:

MyLoggerDB.getInstance().deleteAll();
