# Slim Logger [](https://hexdocs.pm/slim_logger/readme.html)
A single-line logger implementation to replace the default Phoenix logger.
This is a fork of `Phoenix.Logger` designed to produce slimmer, single-line log entries for requests. At the moment, only standard request logs have been slimmed down.
## Installation
The package can be installed by adding `slim_logger` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:
```elixir
def deps do
[
{:slim_logger, "~> 0.3.0"}
]
end
```
To get started, disable the default Phoenix logger in config:
```elixir
# config/config.exs
# Disable the default `Phoenix.Logger` so we can use `SlimLogger` instead.
config :phoenix, :logger, false
```
Then, in your application file, call the install function:
```elixir
# lib/my_app/application.ex
defmodule MyApp.Application do
use Application
@impl true
def start(_type, _args) do
children = [
# ...
]
# Install the slim logger
SlimLogger.install()
opts = [strategy: :one_for_one, name: MyApp.Supervisor]
Supervisor.start_link(children, opts)
end
end
```
If your application is deployed behind a proxy (that sets `X-Forwarded-For` headers, for example), use the [RemoteIp](https://hexdocs.pm/remote_ip/RemoteIp.html) to rewrite `Plug.Conn`'
s `remote_ip` based on forwarding headers.
