Further Documentation:
The function then inserts the log entry into the logs table in the database and returns the ID of the newly created log entry.
Here's an example usage of the logger function:
logger($user->data()->id, 'login', 'User logged in successfully');
This will log a login activity for the currently logged in user with the message "User logged in successfully". The $user->data()->id parameter specifies the ID of the user performing the activity.
