NLog.Web.AspNetCore 6.0.0-rc4
NLog.Web.AspNetCore
Integrates NLog as Logging provider for the ASP.NET Core platform, by just calling UseNLog() with the application host-builder.
Providing features like:
- 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.
- 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 and 9
- ASP.NET Core 2, .NET Standard 2.0 and .NET 4.6.1+
