Laravel Spyhole is a user session recorder for the Laravel Framework. Laravel Spyhole is a wrapper for the JS Library RRWeb (Record and replay the web). It allows a simple way to embed the Recorder into your views and start recordings out-of-the-box.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require faanigee/laravel-spyhole

Usage

After installation publish the config file:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Faanigee\LaravelSpyhole\LaravelSpyholeServiceProvider"

In the configuration file you can set:

  • Session ID tracking: this will make the package track the session ID from the Laravel built-in Session, if set to false, a random UUID will be generated for the user session.
  • User ID tracking: this will make the package track the user ID with recordings.
  • Minimum sampling rate: the minimum number of records to be recorded from frontend before sending. (Default: 50)

Finally, to start recording, just embed the recorder view to the view you want to record.

@include("laravel-spyhole::embed_spyhole")

How it works in short

As pointed before, spyhole uses RRWeb as its internal recorder.

In the resources/assets folder there are the published assets where you can find the RRWeb files and the built version of recording-handler.js, a JS script handling the RRWeb initialization and recording sendings.

The recordings are posted to a route named spyhole.store-entry (whose URL is /spyhole-api/record). Recordings are accessible via the model Kalizi\LaravelSpyhole\Models\SessionRecording with properties: ID, path, recordings (an array stored gzipped and base 64 encoded) and user ID.
