How to debug app issues?

[shalak]

I've added portainer app and even though the access test says "Successfully communicated with the API", I'm not seeing any stats in the icon.

I edited the www/.env file and set the APP_DEBUG=true, then restarted the heimdall container, but no additional logs show up.

I only see the following .log files:

config/log/nginx/access.log
config/log/nginx/error.log
config/log/php/error.log
config/www/logs/laravel-2023-03-18.log

Now, the ./config/log/nginx/error.log is empty, ./config/log/nginx/access.log contains only access into to the heimdall page itself, config/log/php/error.log says ready to handle connections and nothing else, and lastly, the laravel-2023-03-18.log ends on log related to the app installation:

[2023-03-18 12:13:23] local.DEBUG: Download triggered for stdClass Object

How can I debug the actual API calls made by heimdall?

Huh, I forgot to enable the API integration, now it works correctly, but still - for future references, how do I debug the issues?

It looks like the laravel logs are stored in /app/www/storage/logs which isn't exposed as a docker volume mapping. I did a basic test with that, but it broke the entire app with /app/www/artisan no longer existing. I think the simplest way right now is to exec into the container and tail those logs there.
