How to deal with the rotation of personal logs?

Question

PHP

There is a directory with storage of txt files with unsuccessful login attempts (ip and date), file sizes from 38 to 200 bytes, I wanted to compress each of them in zip at the end of the day, but the archive weighs more than the file itself (for me it is it turns out stupid), but I want to store as many files as possible, just in case the place allows, how to organize their rotation? I already think I can take them for the last 10 days (as they accumulate) and into 1 archive? Can someone suggest something more reasonable? So far there are only 30 of them, but I want to automate them by adding them to the scheduler, and not think about it

Answer 1

1. How can an archive with txt weigh more than the file itself? That doesn't happen.
2. Run a cron script that will create a new archive and delete the oldest one. Recently there was a similar question How to delete files from the server after a month?

Answer 2

The log is one file, not 100500 small ones.

Answer 5

Solving the problem of sending messages is not difficult.
Learning symphony, or even just applying it in this case, can depend on a million of your personality factors.
To directly answer the question (where to start?), I would say this:
Start by solving this problem (about sending messages, the server, etc.) in any language and any shit code. And when you finish it, everything will work and you will understand what kind of mess it turned out - decide for yourself whether it would be better to use some kind of framework and best practices.
If you came to an internship, you were given a task and you don’t even know where to start ... It seems that somewhere they advertise a lot the phrase:
"Programming is easy:
1) You choose a popular framework.
2) You ask a question on a toaster .
3) PROFIT."
