[Cookbook] How to log context information to logger (session id, user, ...)

Logging context information (session, user, ...) to the logfile can be of great help tracking down problems with specific users.

This will be available in Yii 1.0.6.

config/main.php

<?php
    // ...
    'components'=>array(
        // ... 
        'log'=>array(
        'class'=>'CLogRouter',
        'routes'=>array(
            array(
                'class'=>'CWebLogRoute',
                'levels'=>'trace,info,error,warning',
                'filter' => array(
                    'class' => 'CLogFilter',
                    'prefixSession' => true,
                    'prefixUser' => false,
                    'logUser' => false,
                    'logVars' => array(),
                ),
            ),
        ),

You could also extend CLogFilter to do your own log message decoration.
