Keep your logs short with logrotate

April 27, 2017 / / 0 Comments

tl;dr

If you are developing some application that writes a lot of logs use `logrotate` to keep them short and don’t allow them to reach gigabytes.

I’m developing in Symfony framework on daily basis. And on the development environment, it creates lots of logs. Every request is logged, every command is logged, every event subscriber is logged.
