Save and show request method in logs

coolbung commented 6 years ago

Currently the request method is not visible in the logs. This should be saved in the DB and displayed on the logs page.

As per my knowledge following are the steps to do what you said. Please let me know if anything I missed. Also, suggest any better solution available. Need some setup related help to install and test with some of the API plugins. Whom should I connect with? - @manojLondhe @coolbung @Pratikshakhandagale

Implementation Steps:

Adding a new file at the following location and the code administrator\components\com_api\sql\updates\mysql\2.5.2.sql
```
  ALTER TABLE "#__api_logs" ADD "request_method" varchar(20) NOT NULL DEFAULT '';
```
Add column name to sorting filter (function - getSortFields) at following location administrator\components\com_api\views\logs\view.html.php
```
  'a.request_method' => JText::_('COM_API_LOGS_REQUEST_METHOD')
```
Add language constants at the following locations administrator\language\en-GB\en-GB.com_api.ini
```
 COM_API_LOGS_REQUEST_METHOD="Request Method"
```
Add a column and its value in the list view at the following location administrator\components\com_api\views\logs\tmpl\default.php
```
 echo JText::_('COM_API_LOGS_REQUEST_METHOD');
 echo $item->request_method;
```
Add the request_method in bind function of following location administrator\components\com_api\tables\log.php

  $array['request_method'] = $input->getMethod();

$array['request_method'] = $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'];

@niteshkesarkar Looks OK, ensure to use Joomla's input class instead of using superglobals directly.
