Log ​

Whether you're tracking errors, monitoring user actions, or debugging internal operations, Log provides a clean and centralized way to record those events into a standard log file.

Unlike traditional ad-hoc echo or var_dump() debugging, the Log utility ensures that messages are persistently stored, timestamped, and categorized by severity level — making it suitable for both development and production environments.

Log file location ​

All log entries are saved in:

/log/snappy-YYYY-MM-DD.log

Methods ​
