use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Log;

class Logger
{
    public static function info(...$args): void
    {
        $trace = collect(debug_backtrace(DEBUG_BACKTRACE_IGNORE_ARGS))
            ->first(fn ($t) => isset($t['file']) && str_contains($t['file'], base_path('app')));

        $location = $trace
            ? basename($trace['file']) . ':' . ($trace['line'] ?? '') . ' -> ' . ($trace['function'] ?? '')
            : 'unknown location';

        $message = collect($args)->map(function ($arg) {
            return is_scalar($arg) ? $arg : json_encode($arg);
        })->implode(' | ');

        Log::info("[$location] $message");
    }
