# Story 6.10: Audit Log Viewer
## Epic Reference
**Epic 6:** Admin Dashboard
## User Story
As an **admin**,
I want **to view admin action history**,
So that **I can maintain accountability and track changes**.
## Dependencies
- **Story 1.1:** Project Setup & Database Schema (admin_logs table and AdminLog model)
- **Story 1.2:** Authentication & Role System (admin auth middleware)
- **Story 6.1:** Dashboard Overview & Statistics (admin layout, navigation patterns)
## Navigation Context
- Accessible from admin dashboard sidebar/navigation
- Route: `/admin/audit-logs`
- Named route: `admin.audit-logs`
## Background Context
### What Gets Logged
The `admin_logs` table captures significant admin actions for accountability:
- **User Management:** Create, update, delete, deactivate/reactivate users
- **Consultation Management:** Approve, reject, mark complete, mark no-show, cancel bookings
- **Timeline Management:** Create, update, archive timelines and timeline entries
- **Posts Management:** Create, update, delete posts
- **Settings Changes:** System configuration modifications
### AdminLog Model Schema
Reference: PRD §16.1 Database Schema
```
admin_logs table:
- id: bigint (primary key)
- admin_id: bigint (nullable, foreign key to users - null for system actions)
- action: string (create, update, delete, approve, reject, etc.)
- target_type: string (user, consultation, timeline, timeline_update, post, setting)
- target_id: bigint (ID of the affected record)
- old_values: json (nullable - previous state for updates)
- new_values: json (nullable - new state for creates/updates)
- ip_address: string (IPv4/IPv6 address of admin)
- created_at: timestamp
```
## Acceptance Criteria
### Display Requirements
- [ ] Paginated table of audit log entries (25 per page)
- [ ] Each row displays:
- Timestamp (formatted per locale: d/m/Y H:i for AR, m/d/Y H:i for EN)
- Admin name (or "System" for automated actions)
- Action type badge (color-coded: green=create, blue=update, red=delete)
- Target type and ID (e.g., "User #123")
- IP address
- Details button to view old/new values
### Filtering
- [ ] Filter by action type (dropdown with available actions)
- [ ] Filter by target type (dropdown with available targets)
- [ ] Filter by date range (date pickers for from/to)
- [ ] Filters apply without page reload (Livewire)
- [ ] Reset filters button
### Search
- [ ] Search by target ID (exact match)
- [ ] Search updates results in real-time with debounce
### Detail Modal
- [ ] Modal displays full log entry details
- [ ] Shows old values in readable format (JSON pretty-printed)
- [ ] Shows new values in readable format
- [ ] Highlights differences between old/new for updates
- [ ] Bilingual labels
### CSV Export
- [ ] Export current filtered results to CSV
- [ ] CSV includes all displayed columns
- [ ] CSV filename includes export date
- [ ] Bilingual column headers based on admin's language preference
### Empty State
- [ ] Friendly message when no logs exist
- [ ] Friendly message when filters return no results
## Technical Notes
### Files to Create/Modify

## Edge Cases & Error Handling
- **Empty state:** Display friendly message when no logs exist or filters return nothing
- **Deleted admin:** Show "System" or "Deleted User" if admin_id references deleted user
- **Large JSON values:** Truncate display in table, show full in modal with scroll
- **IPv6 addresses:** Ensure column width accommodates longer IP addresses
- **Missing target:** Handle gracefully if target record was deleted (show ID only)
- **Pagination reset:** Reset to page 1 when filters change
## Definition of Done
- [x] Audit logs page accessible at `/admin/audit-logs`
- [x] Logs display with all required columns
- [x] All filters work correctly (action, target, date range)
- [x] Search by target ID works
- [x] Pagination displays 25 items per page
- [x] CSV export downloads with filtered data
- [x] Detail modal shows old/new values formatted
- [x] Empty state displays when appropriate
- [x] Bilingual support (AR/EN) complete
- [x] Admin-only access enforced
- [x] All tests pass
- [x] Code formatted with Pint
## Estimation
**Complexity:** Medium | **Effort:** 3-4 hours

## Dev Agent Record
### Status
Ready for Review
### Agent Model Used
Claude Opus 4.5 (claude-opus-4-5-20251101)
### Completion Notes
- AdminLog model already existed from Story 1.1 with correct structure (admin_id, action, target_type, target_id, old_values, new_values, ip_address, created_at)
- AdminLogFactory already existed with useful test states
- Created Volt component following existing admin patterns (consultations/index, timelines/index)
- Implemented all filters: action type, target type, date range, target ID search
- Pagination set to 25 items per page as specified
- CSV export with bilingual headers based on locale
- Detail modal shows JSON-formatted old/new values with proper dark mode styling
- Empty states for no logs and no filter results
- Locale-aware timestamp formatting (d/m/Y for AR, m/d/Y for EN)
- Action badge colors: green (create/approve), blue (update), red (delete/reject), amber (archive)
- 25 comprehensive Pest tests covering all acceptance criteria
- All tests pass, code formatted with Pint
### File List
**New Files:**
- `resources/views/livewire/admin/audit-logs.blade.php` - Volt component for audit log viewer
- `lang/en/audit.php` - English translations for audit log feature
- `lang/ar/audit.php` - Arabic translations for audit log feature
- `tests/Feature/Admin/AuditLogTest.php` - Feature tests (25 tests)
**Modified Files:**

### Change Log
- 2025-12-28: Initial implementation of Story 6.10 Audit Log Viewer
## QA Results
### Review Date: 2025-12-28
### Reviewed By: Quinn (Test Architect)
### Risk Assessment
**Review Depth: Standard** - No auto-escalation triggers detected:
- No auth/payment/security files touched (read-only audit viewer)
- Tests added: 25 comprehensive tests
- Diff size: ~400 lines (under 500 line threshold)
- Story has 4 main acceptance criteria sections
### Code Quality Assessment
**Overall: Excellent**
The implementation demonstrates high-quality, production-ready code:
1. **Architecture**: Clean Volt component following established project patterns (class-based, WithPagination trait)
2. **Design Patterns**: Proper separation of concerns with private methods (`getFilteredQuery`, `getActionColor`)
3. **Query Optimization**: Eager loading (`with('admin')`) prevents N+1 queries
4. **UI/UX**: Responsive design with mobile/desktop views, dark mode support, proper loading states
5. **Bilingual**: Complete AR/EN translations with locale-aware date formatting
6. **Code Style**: Follows project coding standards, proper type hints, clean formatting

### Refactoring Performed
None required - implementation is clean and follows project standards.
### Compliance Check
- Coding Standards: ✓ Class-based Volt component, Flux UI components, proper translations
- Project Structure: ✓ Files in correct locations per coding-standards.md
- Testing Strategy: ✓ 25 Pest tests covering all scenarios
- All ACs Met: ✓ 100% acceptance criteria coverage
### Improvements Checklist
All items handled - no outstanding issues:
- [x] Authentication tests (admin required, client forbidden)
- [x] Display tests (table rendering, sorting, pagination)
- [x] Filter tests (action, target, date range, search)
- [x] Modal tests (show details, close modal, old/new values)
- [x] Export tests (CSV download, filtered export, filename)
- [x] Locale tests (timestamp format per locale)
- [x] Empty state tests (no logs, no filter results)
- [x] Pagination reset on filter change
### Security Review
**Status: PASS**
- Route protected by `auth`, `active`, and `admin` middleware chain
- No SQL injection risk (using Eloquent ORM with parameterized queries)
- No XSS risk (using Blade escaping `{{ }}`)
- Read-only feature (audit logs cannot be modified through this interface)
- No sensitive data exposure (audit log viewer displays data already accessible to admin)
### Performance Considerations
**Status: PASS**
- Eager loading prevents N+1 queries: `with('admin')`
- Pagination limits data per request to 25 items
- Distinct queries for filter dropdowns are efficient
- CSV export uses streaming to handle large datasets
- Debounce (300ms) on search prevents excessive queries
### Files Modified During Review
None - no modifications required.
### Gate Status
Gate: **PASS** → docs/qa/gates/6.10-audit-log-viewer.yml
### Recommended Status
✓ **Ready for Done**
The implementation fully satisfies all acceptance criteria with comprehensive test coverage. Code quality is excellent, following all project standards and best practices. No security, performance, or maintainability concerns identified.
