mongo-drf-endpoint-logger 0.1.9

An API Logger for your Django Rest Framework project with Mongo DB.

Mongo DRF Endpoint Logger [MDRFEL]

• For your Django Rest Framework project, an API logger with MongoDb.

• It won't slow down your API's response time, because the logger runs on a different thread.

• Yes, we know that the log is not kept in the database, but there are times when we need to keep very critical data in the database.

• We encrypt data such as password, token, access, refresh etc. (Please read the documentation if you want to add the keys to be encrypted.)

• We do not log incoming urls for the admin panel.

What data does it record?

Url
Body 
Method
Ip
Response
Status Code
Execution Time
Created Date
