NLog.Web.AspNetCore 6.2.0
NLog.Web.AspNetCore
NLog.Web.AspNetCore integrates NLog as a logging provider for Microsoft.Extensions.Logging by calling UseNLog() on the application HostBuilder.
Application code can continue using ILogger<T>, while NLog provides powerful logging capabilities including:
- Enrich logging output with additional details from active HttpContext using NLog LayoutRenderers, by just updating the NLog configuration.
- Supports middleware injection for HTTP Request Logging and HTTP Response Logging.
- Load NLog configuration from appsettings.json
- Capture structured message properties from the Microsoft ILogger
- Capture scope context properties from the Microsoft ILogger
BeginScope - Routing logging output to multiple destinations via the available NLog Targets
- Rendering logging output into standard formats like JSON, CVS, W3C ELF and XML using NLog Layouts.
- Contributions are always welcome, by creating a pull request.
Supported platforms:
- ASP.NET Core 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10
- ASP.NET Core 2, .NET Standard 2.0 and .NET 4.6.2+
Register NLog as logging provider:
builder.Logging.ClearProviders();
builder.Host.UseNLog();
If logging is needed before the host building, then one can use fluent setup:
var logger = NLog.LogManager.Setup().LoadConfigurationFromAppSettings().GetCurrentClassLogger();
