(easy I guess) Chat log?

[Phoenixthehorse]

Blah blah use ulx and put the server folders in your client lua autorun blah blah BULLSHIT. I want some log that logs EVERYTHING put through console, even if it's not visible to the player. I do this because it'd be nice to log fags and post ban requests.

hook.Add("ShutDown" , "SaveLogs" , function() -- Because saving repeatedly lags
	if theLog then
		file.Write("Logs/"..string.Explode(os.date() , " ")[1]:gsub("/" , "_").."/"..string.Explode(" " , os.date())[2]..".txt" , theLog)
	end
end )

hook.Add("OnPlayerChat" , "GetLog" , function(p , t)
	t1 = t:gsub("\n" , "\\n")
	t2 = t1:gsub("\b" , "\\b")
	t3 = t2:gsub("\t" , "\\b")
	-- Enter other escape characters in here if you want.
	text = t3
	theLog = theLog.."\n".."[["string.Explode(" " , os.date())[2].. "]]  "..p:Nick()..": "..text
end )

Should work.

There is alot more that can be logged that I can't be bothered writing atm :P

Edit: You're wanting this serverside, right?

Edit2: 'Ban requests'

I'll change it :/

It's a shame because what FlapJack coded, will only work if the client leaves/shuts down, or the server does. But If some one crashes the server or client, i'm pretty sure logs are lost.

lol fail no offense

[|FlapJack|]

ShutDown is also called on disconnection and changelevel. Unfortunately, the only way around it is by periodically (Using a timer) saving, or using the laggy method - reading and saving on chat.

Yes, crashing will lose the logs :/
