Implement API Request Logging to Database

[quickweb-stack]

Close: #103

Description

I've successfully implemented API request logging to the database. Here's what was done:

1. Created a database migration ( migrations/20260630_create_request_logs_table.sql ):

   • Defined request_logs table with required columns: id , request_id , method , path , status_code , duration_ms , api_key_id , user_id , ip_address , user_agent , and created_at .
   • Added appropriate indexes for efficient querying.

2. Created request logging middleware ( src/middleware/requestLogger.ts ):

   • Fires after response is sent using res.on("finish") to avoid blocking response time.
   • Captures all required fields: request ID, method, path, status code, duration, API key ID, user ID, IP address, and user agent.
   • Excludes sensitive paths: /health , /health/lb , /ready , /metrics .
   • Logs asynchronously to the database using queryWrite .
   • Fails gracefully if logging fails (only logs to console).

3. Applied the middleware ( src/index.ts ):

   • Imported the requestLogger middleware.
   • Added it after requestId middleware to ensure request ID is available.
     To use this implementation:

4. Run the migration with npm run migrate:up to create the request_logs table.

5. The middleware will automatically log all API requests.
