Store logs into the database

Log every request into the database.

DJANGO_LOG_TRACKER_DATABASE = True  # Default to False

• Logs will be available in Django Admin Panel.

• The search bar will search in Request Body, Response, Headers and API URL.

• You can also filter the logs based on the "added_on" date, Status Code and Request Methods.

Track client ip address

DJANGO_LOG_TRACKER_IP = True # Default to False

Track client ip geolocation

DJANGO_LOG_TRACKER_IP_GEOLOCATION = True # Default to False

Note:

API response may get slower for DJANGO_LOG_TRACKER_IP and DJANGO_LOG_TRACKER_IP_GEOLOCATION. So by default they both are false.
