Change log

logbee.Backend 2.1.1

Release date: 17-05-2025

https://github.com/catalingavan/logbee-app/releases/tag/logbee.Backend-v2.1.1

Docker image: catalingavan/logbee.backend:2.1.1

This release is compatible with logbee.Frontend-v2.1.1 or newer versions.


Introduced Interceptors:

  • Interceptors are JavaScript functions that run before each request is logged.

  • Useful for filtering out unwanted or repetitive requests (e.g., health checks).

  • Interceptors receive a context object and a next() function.

  • If next() is called, the request is logged; otherwise, it’s skipped.

Interceptor JavaScript example

 function(context, next) {
   const statusCode = context.requestLog.httpProperties.response.httpStatusCode;
   const localPath = context.requestLog.httpProperties.url.path.toLowerCase();

   if (localPath === "/status/ping" && statusCode === 200) {
      // Skip logging successful health check requests
      return;
   }

   // Continue logging
   next();
}

logbee.Backend 1.3.0

Release date: 29-10-2024

https://github.com/catalingavan/logbee-app/releases/tag/logbee.Backend-v1.3.0

Bug fixes

Fixes 405 Method Not Allowed when trying to delete captured application logs and data. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4413455/why-does-http-delete-verb-return-405-error-method-not-allowed-for-my-restful-w

This bug prevented Logbee.Backend from deleting expiring logs and related metrics in certain scenarios, leading to indefinite database growth.

Improvements

  • Implemented support for OpenTelemetry integration.

  • Implemented automated job for deleting old local log files.
