I’m currently working on a PlayerLogging system so we can track user’s activity throughout the playing experience.
I’m assuming it saves but doesn’t save fully so it just deletes practically all the logs except for one
I’m pretty stumped on what I should do at this point since there isn’t much information about this on the forums.
My current setup
I’m using Cmdr Admin for my system (what I use to retrieve the logs)
then a separate system that does all the saving and logging.
Main Script
It’s not giving off any errors or warns
local API = {}
local AllPlayerLogs = {}
local DatastoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local PlayerLogs = DatastoreService:GetDataStore("PlayerLogs")
local HttpService = game:GetService("HttpService")
function API.RequestLogs(UserId)
print(UserId)
if AllPlayerLogs[UserId] then
return AllPlayerLogs[UserId]
else
return false
end
end
function API.AddLog(UserId, Information, Type)
local success, errormsg = pcall(function()
local osTime = os.time()
AllPlayerLogs[UserId] = {}
AllPlayerLogs[UserId][osTime] = {osTime, Information, Type}
warn("Recieved")
end)
if not success then
warn("Couldn't Complete: ", errormsg)
return false
else
return true
end
end
function API.SaveLogs(UserId)
local success, errormsg = pcall(function()
PlayerLogs:UpdateAsync(UserId, function(Array)
return AllPlayerLogs[UserId]
end)
end)
if not success then
warn("There was an error saving "..UserId.." Data")
warn(errormsg)
end
end
-- API.AddLog(Player.UserId, "Hey", "Server")
function API:Initialize()
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
AllPlayerLogs[Player.UserId] = {}
local Data
local success, errormsg = pcall(function()
Data = PlayerLogs:GetAsync(Player.UserId)
AllPlayerLogs[Player.UserId] = Data and Data
end)
if success then
AllPlayerLogs[Player.UserId] = Data or AllPlayerLogs[Player.UserId]
else
warn(errormsg)
end
API.AddLog(Player.UserId, "Joined Server", "Server")
API.SaveLogs(Player.UserId)
end)
game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(Player)
API.AddLog(Player.UserId, "Left Server", "Server")
API.SaveLogs(Player.UserId)
end)
end
return API
Cmdr Retrieving Player Logs
local PlayerLogs = require(game:GetService("ServerScriptService").ServerInit.Datalog)
local PlayerLogService = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("PlayerLogs")
local Sort = require(game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").Modules.Sort)
local Logs = {}
function Sort()
table.sort(Logs, function(a,b)
return a.osTime < b.osTime
end)
end
return function (CC, PlayerId)
CC:Reply(PlayerId.." Logs", Color3.fromRGB(255, 223, 93))
local Data
local success, errormsg = pcall(function()
Data = PlayerLogService:GetAsync(PlayerId)
end)
if Data then
for i, ChangeToArray in pairs(Data) do
table.insert(Logs, {osTime = tonumber(ChangeToArray[1]), Type = ChangeToArray[3], Information = ChangeToArray[2]})
end
Sort()
else
return "User does not have logs"
end
if not success then
warn(errormsg)
end
for i, Return in pairs(Logs) do
local success, errormsg = pcall(function()
CC:Reply(os.date("%A %d %b %I:%M%p %Y %Z", Return.osTime).." | "..Return.Type.." | "..Return.Information, Color3.fromRGB(255, 255, 255))
end)
if not success then
CC:Reply("Error | Couldn't Load Data")
end
end
table.clear(Logs)
return ("Data returned for Id "..PlayerId)
end
This is what It looks like adding a new log
LoggingService.AddLog(Player.UserId, InformationSent, Type)
Visual Example
Datastore View
8728703052 Is my UserID
1623007588 Is the OS.time() it was added
and all the other information inside it is just used for getting data.
