#Spatie Activitylog Compatibility

Spatie Version Support Notes
^4.0 Full Legacy support with native batch_uuid and properties-based tracking
^5.0 Full Requires the official v5 upgrade migration (see below)

Important for v5 users: You must follow Spatie's official v5 upgrade guide before using this plugin on v5. This includes:

  1. Adding the attribute_changes column
  2. Dropping the batch_uuid column
  3. Migrating tracked change data from properties into attribute_changes

The plugin does not support an unmigrated v5 database.

Key differences between v4 and v5:

  • Tracked changes: v4 stores changes in properties['attributes'] / properties['old']. v5 uses the dedicated attribute_changes column. The plugin reads from both automatically.
  • Batch grouping: v4 uses the native batch_uuid column. v5 uses custom-property grouping (properties['group']) per the official docs. The plugin handles both transparently.
  • Relationships: v5 renames activities() to activitiesAsSubject() and actions() to activitiesAsCauser(). The plugin detects and uses whichever is available.

#⚡ Installation

#Step 1: Install via Composer

composer require alizharb/filament-activity-log

#Step 2: Register the Plugin

Add to your AdminPanelProvider:

use AlizHarb\ActivityLog\ActivityLogPlugin;

public function panel(Panel $panel): Panel
{
    return $panel
        ->plugins([
            ActivityLogPlugin::make()
                ->label('Log')
                ->pluralLabel('Logs')
                ->navigationGroup('System')
                ->cluster('System'), // Optional: Group inside a cluster
        ]);
}

#Step 3: Install Assets & Config

Run the installation command to publish the configuration, assets, and migrations:

php artisan filament-activity-log:install

#🎯 Quick Start

#1. Enable Logging on Models

Ensure your models use the LogsActivity trait:

use Spatie\Activitylog\Traits\LogsActivity;
use Spatie\Activitylog\LogOptions;

class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use LogsActivity;

    public function getActivitylogOptions(): LogOptions
    {
        return LogOptions::defaults()
            ->logAll();
    }
}

#2. Configure Tracking (Optional)

To automatically capture IP addresses and user agent information, add the generic tap to your config/activitylog.php:

'activity_logger_taps' => [
    \AlizHarb\ActivityLog\Taps\SetActivityContextTap::class,
],

#3. View Activities

Navigate to the Logs resource in your admin panel to see all tracked activities.


#🎯 Core Features

#📦 Activity Log Resource

A dedicated resource allows you to manage all activity logs.

Features:

  • Advanced Filtering - Filter by causer, subject, event type, and date
  • Global Search - Search through log descriptions and properties
  • Detailed View - Inspect every detail of an activity log

#⏱️ Timeline View

Visualize the history of any record with a beautiful timeline.

Usage: The timeline is available as a table action in the Relation Manager or can be added to any page.

#📊 Dashboard Widgets

#Activity Chart Widget

Displays a line chart showing activity trends over time.

use AlizHarb\ActivityLog\Widgets\ActivityChartWidget;

public function getWidgets(): array
{
    return [
        ActivityChartWidget::class,
    ];
}

#Latest Activity Widget

Shows a list of the most recent activities.

use AlizHarb\ActivityLog\Widgets\LatestActivityWidget;

public function getWidgets(): array
{
    return [
        LatestActivityWidget::class,
    ];
}

#🔗 Relation Manager

Add an activity log history table to any of your existing resources (e.g., UserResource).

use AlizHarb\ActivityLog\RelationManagers\ActivitiesRelationManager;

public static function getRelations(): array
{
    return [
        ActivitiesRelationManager::class,
    ];
}

#🏷️ Customizable Subject Titles

The package automatically checks for name, title, or label attributes on your models. For more control, implement the HasActivityLogTitle interface on your model:

use AlizHarb\ActivityLog\Contracts\HasActivityLogTitle;

class User extends Model implements HasActivityLogTitle
{
    public function getActivityLogTitle(): string
    {
        return "User: {$this->email}";
    }
}

#📚 Activity Grouping / Batch Support

Automatically group activities from a single job or request. Use the View Batch action in the Activity Log table to inspect all related activities.

  • Spatie v4: Uses the native batch_uuid column for grouping.
  • Spatie v5: Uses custom-property grouping (properties['group']), since upstream batch support was removed in v5. The plugin handles this automatically via the SetActivityContextTap.

#⚙️ Configuration

You can customize almost every aspect of the package via the filament-activity-log.php config file.

#Customizing Table Columns

'table' => [
    'columns' => [
        'log_name' => [
            'visible' => true,
            'searchable' => true,
            'sortable' => true,
        ],
        // ...
    ],
],

#Customizing Widgets

'widgets' => [
    'widgets' => [
        \AlizHarb\ActivityLog\Widgets\ActivityChartWidget::class,
        \AlizHarb\ActivityLog\Widgets\LatestActivityWidget::class,
    ],
    'activity_chart' => [
        'enabled' => true,
        'days' => 30,
        'fill_color' => 'rgba(16, 185, 129, 0.1)',
        'border_color' => '#10b981',
    ],
    'latest_activity' => [
        'enabled' => true,
        'limit' => 10,
    ],
],

#Custom Authorization

Restrict access to specific users by implementing a custom authorizer invokable class:

// app/Authorizer/ActivityLogAuthorizer.php
namespace App\Authorizer;

class ActivityLogAuthorizer
{
    public function __invoke(User $user): bool
    {
        // Define your custom logic to determine if the user can access the activity log.
        return $user->id === 1;
    }
}

Then register it in the config:

// config/filament-activity-log.php
'permissions' => [
    'custom_authorization' => \App\Authorizer\ActivityLogAuthorizer::class,
],
