Spring Boot - How to log all requests and responses with exceptions in single place

Question

I m working on rest api with spring boot  I need to log all requests with input params  with methods  eg  GET  POST  etc   request path  query string  corresponding class method of this request  also response of this action  both success and errors  For example  successful request  http   example com api users 1  Log should look something like this       HttpStatus  200     path   quot api users 1 quot      method   quot GET quot      clientIp   quot 0 0 0 0 quot      accessToken   quot XHGu6as5dajshdgau6i6asdjhgjhg quot      method   quot UsersController getUser quot      arguments         id  1           response          user            id  1          username   quot user123 quot           email   quot user123 example com quot                      exceptions               Or request with error  http   example com api users 9999  Log should be something like this       HttpStatus  404     errorCode  101                      path   quot api users 9999 quot      method   quot GET quot      clientIp   quot 0 0 0 0 quot      accessToken   quot XHGu6as5dajshdgau6i6asdjhgjhg quot      method   quot UsersController getUser quot      arguments         id  9999           returns                         exceptions                  exception   quot UserNotFoundException quot          message   quot User with id 9999 not found quot          exceptionId   quot adhaskldjaso98d7324kjh989 quot          stacktrace                                         I want Request Response to be a single entity  with custom information related to this entity  both in successful and error cases  What is best practice in spring to achieve this  may be with filters  if yes  can you provide concrete example  I ve played with  ControllerAdvice and  ExceptionHandler  but as I mentioned  I need to handle all success and error requests in single place  and single log

If you are seeing only part of your request payload  you need to call the setMaxPayloadLength function as it defaults to showing only 50 characters in your request body   Also  setting setIncludeHeaders to false is a good idea if you don t want to log your auth headers     Bean public CommonsRequestLoggingFilter requestLoggingFilter         CommonsRequestLoggingFilter loggingFilter   new CommonsRequestLoggingFilter        loggingFilter setIncludeClientInfo false       loggingFilter setIncludeQueryString false       loggingFilter setIncludePayload true       loggingFilter setIncludeHeaders false       loggingFilter setMaxPayloadLength 500       return loggingFilter

Has there been any development with Actuator HTTP Trace since the initial question was posted i e  is there a way to enrich it with the response body  What about enriching it with custom metadata from MDC or from Spring-Sleuth or Zipkin  such as traceId and spanId  Also for me Actuator HTTP Trace didn t work Spring Boot 2 2 3  and I found the fix here  https   juplo de actuator-httptrace-does-not-work-with-spring-boot-2-2  pom xml  lt dependency gt     lt groupId gt org springframework boot    lt artifactId gt spring-boot-starter-actuator  lt  dependency gt   application properties management endpoints web exposure include httptrace  The fix   The simple fix for this problem is  to add a  Bean of type InMemoryHttpTraceRepository to your  Configuration-class    Bean public HttpTraceRepository htttpTraceRepository       return new InMemoryHttpTraceRepository       The Explanation   The cause of this problem is not a bug  but a legitimate change in the default configuration  Unfortunately  this change is not noted in the according section of the documentation  Instead it is burried in the Upgrade Notes for Spring Boot 2 2 The default-implementation stores the captured data in memory  Hence  it consumes much memory  without the user knowing  or even worse  needing it  This is especially undesirable in cluster environments  where memory is a precious good  And remember  Spring Boot was invented to simplify cluster deployments  That is  why this feature is now turned of by default and has to be turned on by the user explicitly  if needed

if you use Tomcat in your boot app here is org apache catalina filters RequestDumperFilter in a class path for you   but it will not provide you  with exceptions in single place

Don t write any Interceptors  Filters  Components  Aspects  etc   this is a very common problem and has been solved many times over    Spring Boot has a modules called Actuator  which provides HTTP request logging out of the box  There s an endpoint mapped to  trace  SB1 x  or  actuator httptrace  SB2 0   which will show you last 100 HTTP requests  You can customize it to log each request  or write to a DB     To get the endpoints you want  you ll need the spring-boot-starter-actuator dependency  and also to  whitelist  the endpoints you re looking for  and possibly setup or disable security for it   Also  where will this application run  Will you be using a PaaS  Hosting providers  Heroku for example  provide request logging as part of their service and you don t need to do any coding whatsoever then

hahn s answer required a bit of modification for it to work for me  but it is by far the most customizable thing I could get   It didn t work for me  probably because I also have a HandlerInterceptorAdapter     but I kept getting a bad response from the server in that version  Here s my modification of it   public class LoggableDispatcherServlet extends DispatcherServlet        private final Log logger   LogFactory getLog getClass           Override     protected void doDispatch HttpServletRequest request  HttpServletResponse response  throws Exception            long startTime   System currentTimeMillis            try               super doDispatch request  response             finally               log new ContentCachingRequestWrapper request   new ContentCachingResponseWrapper response                       System currentTimeMillis   - startTime                        private void log HttpServletRequest requestToCache  HttpServletResponse responseToCache  long timeTaken            int status   responseToCache getStatus            JsonObject jsonObject   new JsonObject            jsonObject addProperty  httpStatus   status           jsonObject addProperty  path   requestToCache getRequestURI             jsonObject addProperty  httpMethod   requestToCache getMethod             jsonObject addProperty  timeTakenMs   timeTaken           jsonObject addProperty  clientIP   requestToCache getRemoteAddr             if  status  gt  299                String requestBody   null              try                   requestBody   requestToCache getReader   lines   collect Collectors joining System lineSeparator                    catch  IOException e                    e printStackTrace                              jsonObject addProperty  requestBody   requestBody               jsonObject addProperty  requestParams   requestToCache getQueryString                 jsonObject addProperty  tokenExpiringHeader                       responseToCache getHeader ResponseHeaderModifierInterceptor HEADER TOKEN EXPIRING                      logger info jsonObject

You could use javax servlet Filter if there wasn t a requirement to log java method that been executed   But with this requirement you have to access information stored in handlerMapping of DispatcherServlet  That said  you can override DispatcherServlet to accomplish logging of request response pair   Below is an example of idea that can be further enhanced and adopted to your needs   public class LoggableDispatcherServlet extends DispatcherServlet        private final Log logger   LogFactory getLog getClass           Override     protected void doDispatch HttpServletRequest request  HttpServletResponse response  throws Exception           if    request instanceof ContentCachingRequestWrapper                 request   new ContentCachingRequestWrapper request                     if    response instanceof ContentCachingResponseWrapper                 response   new ContentCachingResponseWrapper response                     HandlerExecutionChain handler   getHandler request            try               super doDispatch request  response             finally               log request  response  handler               updateResponse response                        private void log HttpServletRequest requestToCache  HttpServletResponse responseToCache  HandlerExecutionChain handler            LogMessage log   new LogMessage            log setHttpStatus responseToCache getStatus             log setHttpMethod requestToCache getMethod             log setPath requestToCache getRequestURI             log setClientIp requestToCache getRemoteAddr             log setJavaMethod handler toString             log setResponse getResponsePayload responseToCache            logger info log              private String getResponsePayload HttpServletResponse response            ContentCachingResponseWrapper wrapper   WebUtils getNativeResponse response  ContentCachingResponseWrapper class           if  wrapper    null                 byte   buf   wrapper getContentAsByteArray                if  buf length  gt  0                    int length   Math min buf length  5120                   try                       return new String buf  0  length  wrapper getCharacterEncoding                                       catch  UnsupportedEncodingException ex                           NOOP                                                   return   unknown               private void updateResponse HttpServletResponse response  throws IOException           ContentCachingResponseWrapper responseWrapper               WebUtils getNativeResponse response  ContentCachingResponseWrapper class           responseWrapper copyBodyToResponse               HandlerExecutionChain -

If you dont mind trying Spring AOP  this is something I have been exploring for logging purposes and it works pretty well for me  It wont log requests that have not been defined and failed request attempts though   Add these three dependencies  spring-aop  aspectjrt  aspectjweaver   Add this to your xml config file  lt aop aspectj-autoproxy  gt   Create an annotation which can be used as a pointcut    Retention RetentionPolicy RUNTIME   Target  ElementType METHOD ElementType TYPE   public  interface EnableLogging   ActionType actionType        Now annotate all your rest API methods which you want to log   EnableLogging actionType   ActionType SOME EMPLOYEE ACTION   Override public Response getEmployees RequestDto req  final String param            Now on to the Aspect  component-scan the package which this class is in    Aspect  Component public class Aspects     AfterReturning pointcut    execution  co xyz aspect EnableLogging           amp  amp   annotation enableLogging   amp  amp  args reqArg  reqArg1       returning    result   public void auditInfo JoinPoint joinPoint  Object result  EnableLogging enableLogging  Object reqArg  String reqArg1         HttpServletRequest request     ServletRequestAttributes  RequestContextHolder currentRequestAttributes                 getRequest         if  result instanceof Response            Response responseObj    Response  result       String requestUrl   request getScheme             request getServerName                           request getServerPort     request getContextPath     request getRequestURI                           request getQueryString     String clientIp   request getRemoteAddr    String clientRequest   reqArg toString    int httpResponseStatus   responseObj getStatus    responseObj getEntity       Can log whatever stuff from here in a single spot       AfterThrowing pointcut    execution  co xyz aspect EnableLogging           amp  amp   annotation enableLogging   amp  amp  args reqArg  reqArg1       throwing  exception   public void auditExceptionInfo JoinPoint joinPoint  Throwable exception  EnableLogging enableLogging  Object reqArg  String reqArg1         HttpServletRequest request     ServletRequestAttributes  RequestContextHolder currentRequestAttributes                 getRequest         String requestUrl   request getScheme             request getServerName               request getServerPort     request getContextPath     request getRequestURI               request getQueryString         exception getMessage        exception getCause        exception printStackTrace        exception getLocalizedMessage           Can log whatever exceptions  requests  etc from here in a single spot                AfterReturning advice runs when a matched method execution returns   normally        AfterThrowing advice runs when a matched method execution exits by   throwing an exception    If you want to read in detail read through this  http   docs spring io spring docs current spring-framework-reference html aop html

Spring already provides a filter that does this job  Add following bean to your config   Bean public CommonsRequestLoggingFilter requestLoggingFilter         CommonsRequestLoggingFilter loggingFilter   new CommonsRequestLoggingFilter        loggingFilter setIncludeClientInfo true       loggingFilter setIncludeQueryString true       loggingFilter setIncludePayload true       loggingFilter setMaxPayloadLength 64000       return loggingFilter      Don t forget to change log level of org springframework web filter CommonsRequestLoggingFilter to DEBUG

After adding Actuators to the spring boot bassed application you have  trace endpoint available with latest requests informations  This endpoint is working based on TraceRepository and default implementation is InMemoryTraceRepository that saves last 100 calls  You can change this by implementing this interface by yourself and make it available as a Spring bean  For example to log all requests to log  and still use default implementation as a basic storage for serving info on  trace endpoint  I m using this kind of implementation    import org slf4j Logger  import org slf4j LoggerFactory  import org springframework boot actuate trace InMemoryTraceRepository  import org springframework boot actuate trace Trace  import org springframework boot actuate trace TraceRepository  import org springframework stereotype Component   import java util List  import java util Map     Component public class LoggingTraceRepository implements TraceRepository      private static final Logger LOG   LoggerFactory getLogger LoggingTraceRepository class     private final TraceRepository delegate   new InMemoryTraceRepository        Override   public List lt Trace gt  findAll         return delegate findAll            Override   public void add Map lt String  Object gt  traceInfo        LOG info traceInfo toString         this delegate add traceInfo           This traceInfo map contains basic informations about request and response in this kind of form   method GET  path  api hello John  headers  request  host localhost 8080  user-agent curl 7 51 0  accept       response  X-Application-Context application  Content-Type text plain charset UTF-8  Content-Length 10  Date Wed  29 Mar 2017 20 41 21 GMT  status 200     There is NO response content here   EDIT  Logging POST data  You can access POST data by overriding WebRequestTraceFilter  but don t think it is a good idea  e g  all uploaded file content will go to logs  Here is sample code  but don t use it   package info fingo nuntius acuate trace   import org apache commons io IOUtils  import org springframework boot actuate trace TraceProperties  import org springframework boot actuate trace TraceRepository  import org springframework boot actuate trace WebRequestTraceFilter  import org springframework stereotype Component   import javax servlet ServletException  import javax servlet http HttpServletRequest  import java io IOException  import java nio charset Charset  import java util LinkedHashMap  import java util Map    Component public class CustomWebTraceFilter extends WebRequestTraceFilter      public CustomWebTraceFilter TraceRepository repository  TraceProperties properties        super repository  properties         Override   protected Map lt String  Object gt  getTrace HttpServletRequest request        Map lt String  Object gt  trace   super getTrace request       String multipartHeader   request getHeader  content-type        if  multipartHeader    null  amp  amp  multipartHeader startsWith  multipart form-data              Map lt String  Object gt  parts   new LinkedHashMap lt  gt             try               request getParts   forEach                      part - gt                            try                               parts put part getName    IOUtils toString part getInputStream    Charset forName  UTF-8                                catch  IOException e                                e printStackTrace                                                                             catch  IOException   ServletException e                e printStackTrace                      if   parts isEmpty                  trace put  multipart-content-map   parts                       return trace

You can also configure a custom Spring interceptor HandlerInterceptorAdapter for a simplified implementation of pre-only post-only interceptors    Component public class CustomHttpInterceptor extends HandlerInterceptorAdapter         Override     public boolean preHandle  final HttpServletRequest request  final HttpServletResponse response              final Object handler              throws Exception               Logs here          return super preHandle request  response  handler               Override     public void afterCompletion final HttpServletRequest request  final HttpServletResponse response              final Object handler  final Exception ex               Logs here           Then  you register as many interceptors as you want    Configuration public class WebMvcConfig implements WebMvcConfigurer         Autowired     CustomHttpInterceptor customHttpInterceptor        Override     public void addInterceptors InterceptorRegistry registry            registry addInterceptor customHttpInterceptor  addPathPatterns   endpoints                 Note  just like stated by  Robert  you need to pay attention to the specific implementations of HttpServletRequest and HttpServletResponse your application is using    For example  for apps using the ShallowEtagHeaderFilter  the response implementation would be a ContentCachingResponseWrapper  so you d have    Component public class CustomHttpInterceptor extends HandlerInterceptorAdapter        private static final Logger LOGGER   LoggerFactory getLogger CustomHttpInterceptor class        private static final int MAX PAYLOAD LENGTH   1000        Override     public void afterCompletion final HttpServletRequest request  final HttpServletResponse response              final Object handler  final Exception ex            final byte   contentAsByteArray     ContentCachingResponseWrapper  response  getContentAsByteArray             LOGGER info  Request body  n    getContentAsString contentAsByteArray  response getCharacterEncoding                 private String getContentAsString byte   buf  String charsetName            if  buf    null    buf length    0                return                        try               int length   Math min buf length  MAX PAYLOAD LENGTH                return new String buf  0  length  charsetName             catch  UnsupportedEncodingException ex                return  Unsupported Encoding

Currently Spring Boot has the Actuator feature to get the logs of requests and responses  But you can also get the logs using Aspect AOP   Aspect provides you with annotations like   Before    AfterReturning   AfterThrowing etc   Before logs the request   AfterReturning logs the response and  AfterThrowing logs the error message  You may not need all endpoints  log  so you can apply some filters on the packages  Here are some examples  For Request   Before  quot within your package where endpoints are     quot       public void endpointBefore JoinPoint p            if  log

In order to log all the requests with input parameters and body  we can use filters and interceptors  But while using a filter or interceptor  we cannot print the request body multiple times  The better way is we can use spring-AOP  By using this we can decouple the logging mechanism from the application  AOP can be used for logging Input and output of each method in the application   My solution is    import org aspectj lang ProceedingJoinPoint   import org aspectj lang annotation Around   import org aspectj lang annotation Aspect   import org aspectj lang annotation Pointcut   import org aspectj lang reflect CodeSignature   import org slf4j Logger   import org slf4j LoggerFactory   import org springframework stereotype Component   import com fasterxml jackson databind ObjectMapper    Aspect   Component public class LoggingAdvice   private static final Logger logger    LoggerFactory getLogger LoggingAdvice class      here we can provide any methodName  packageName  className   Pointcut value    execution   com package name               public void myPointcut          Around  myPointcut     public Object applicationLogger ProceedingJoinPoint pjt  throws Throwable       ObjectMapper mapper   new ObjectMapper        String methodName   pjt getSignature   getName        String className   pjt getTarget   getClass   toString        String inputParams   this getInputArgs pjt  mapper       logger info  method invoked from     className           methodName    --Request Payload      inputParams       Object object   pjt proceed        try           logger info  Response Object---    mapper writeValueAsString object          catch  Exception e              return object     private String getInputArgs ProceedingJoinPoint pjt ObjectMapper mapper        Object   array   pjt getArgs        CodeSignature signature    CodeSignature  pjt getSignature         StringBuilder sb   new StringBuilder        sb append           int i   0      String   parameterNames   signature getParameterNames        int maxArgs   parameterNames length      for  String name   signature getParameterNames              sb append      append name  append               try               sb append mapper writeValueAsString array i    append                   if i    maxArgs -1                     sb append                               catch  Exception e                sb append                          i              return sb append      toString

The Logbook library is specifically made for logging HTTP requests and responses  It supports Spring Boot using a special starter library  To enable logging in Spring Boot all you need to do is adding the library to your project s dependencies  For example assuming you are using Maven   lt dependency gt       lt groupId gt org zalando lt  groupId gt       lt artifactId gt logbook-spring-boot-starter lt  artifactId gt       lt version gt 1 5 0 lt  version gt   lt  dependency gt   By default the logging output looks like this       quot origin quot     quot local quot      quot correlation quot     quot 52e19498-890c-4f75-a06c-06ddcf20836e quot      quot status quot    200     quot headers quot           quot X-Application-Context quot             quot application 8088 quot              quot Content-Type quot             quot application json charset UTF-8 quot              quot Transfer-Encoding quot             quot chunked quot              quot Date quot             quot Sun  24 Dec 2017 13 10 45 GMT quot                quot body quot           quot thekey quot     quot some example quot          quot duration quot    105     quot protocol quot     quot HTTP 1 1 quot      quot type quot     quot response quot     It does however not output the class name that is handling the request  The library does have some interfaces for writing custom loggers  Notes In the meantime the library has significantly evolved  current version is 2 4 1  see https   github com zalando logbook releases  E g  the default ouput format has changed  and can be configured  filtered  etc  Do NOT forget to set the log level to TRACE  else you won t see anything  logging    level      org zalando logbook  TRACE
