How to implement logging of all changes mysql database? - mysql

Question

I need to track all changes in database: update, insert, delete. I want know WHO and WHAT change.
Need log table with columns:
Date.
Table name.
Column.
Old value.
New value.
IP.
What is the best way to implement this?
Are there ready-made solutions?
I tried use triggers on update / insert / delete. This is a good solution? Or maybe I do not know something about the correct logging in mysql?
My trigger:
CREATE TRIGGER `user_update_trigger`
AFTER UPDATE ON `users`
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
DECLARE done int default false;
DECLARE col_name CHAR(255);
DECLARE counter INTEGER(11);
DECLARE column_cursor cursor for SELECT `column_name`
FROM `INFORMATION_SCHEMA`.`COLUMNS`
WHERE `TABLE_SCHEMA`='test'
AND `TABLE_NAME`='users';
DECLARE CONTINUE HANDLER FOR NOT FOUND SET done = TRUE;
open column_cursor;
myloop: loop
fetch column_cursor into col_name;
if done then
leave myloop;
end if;
/*SET #old_val = OLD.{{col_name}}; <------ HOW GET VALUE? */
/*SET #new_val = NEW.{{col_name}};<------ HOW GET VALUE? */
if #old_val <> #new_val then
/*INSERT INTO `log` ....*/
end if;
end loop;
close column_cursor;
END;

enable mysql audit log filtering.
You can do something like
{
"filter": {
"class": [
{
"name": "connection",
"event": [
{ "name": "connect" },
{ "name": "disconnect" }
]
},
{ "name": "general" },
{
"name": "table_access",
"event": [
{ "name": "insert" },
{ "name": "delete" },
{ "name": "update" }
]
}
]
}
}
or
"event": [
{ "name": "select", "log": false },
{ "name": "insert", "log": true },
{ "name": "delete", "log": true },
{ "name": "update", "log": true }
]
