Best practices

Add component packages to your project

Install-Package log4net
Copy the code

Add the log4net.config file


      
<configuration>
  <configSections>
    <section name="log4net" type="log4net.Config.Log4NetConfigurationSectionHandler, log4net"/>
  </configSections>
  <log4net debug="false">

    <appender name="info" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender,log4net">
      <param name="File" value="log4net/info/" />
      <param name="AppendToFile" value="true" />
      <param name="MaxSizeRollBackups" value="1"/>
      <param name="MaximumFileSize" value="5MB"/>
      <param name="RollingStyle" value="Composite" />

      </layout>
      <filter type="log4net.Filter.LevelRangeFilter">

</configuration>
Copy the code

Console project

using log4net;
using log4net.Config;
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Reflection;

namespace ConsoleAppDemo
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            var log4netRepository = LogManager.GetRepository(Assembly.GetEntryAssembly());
            XmlConfigurator.Configure(log4netRepository, new FileInfo("log4net.config"));

            ILog log = LogManager.GetLogger(log4netRepository.Name, "NETCorelog4net");

            log.Info("NETCorelog4net log");
            log.Info("test log");
            log.Error("error");
            log.Info("linezero"); Console.ReadKey(); }}}Copy the code

AspNetCore project

Create a new static class and write an extension method UseLog4Net() for log4NET initialization.

public static class Log4NetExtensions
{
    public static IHostBuilder UseLog4Net(this IHostBuilder hostBuilder)
    {
        var log4netRepository = LogManager.GetRepository(Assembly.GetEntryAssembly());
        XmlConfigurator.Configure(log4netRepository, new FileInfo("log4net.config"));

        returnhostBuilder; }}Copy the code

The extension method returns the IHostBuilder object, which can be called chained, beautifying the code, and then using the extension method UseLog4Net() in program.cs.

using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Hosting;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting;

namespace WebAppDemo
{
    public class Program
    {
        public static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            CreateHostBuilder(args).Build().Run();
        }

        public static IHostBuilder CreateHostBuilder(string[] args)=> Host.CreateDefaultBuilder(args) .ConfigureWebHostDefaults(webBuilder => { webBuilder.UseStartup<Startup>(); }).UseLog4Net(); }}Copy the code

The configuration is complete, then write to the log anywhere.

using log4net;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;

namespace WebAppDemo.Controllers{[ApiController]
    [Route("[controller]")]
    public class WeatherForecastController : ControllerBase
    {
        private static readonly string[] Summaries = new[]
        {
            "Freezing"."Bracing"."Chilly"."Cool"."Mild"."Warm"."Balmy"."Hot"."Sweltering"."Scorching"
        };

        private readonly ILog _log;

        public WeatherForecastController()
        {
            _log = LogManager.GetLogger(typeof(WeatherForecastController));
        }

        [HttpGet]
        public IEnumerable<WeatherForecast> Get()
        {
            _log.Info("Hello, this is a Weather api!");
            _log.Warn("Wran !!!");
            _log.Error("Controller Error");

            var rng = new Random();
            return Enumerable.Range(1.5).Select(index => new WeatherForecast
            {
                Date = DateTime.Now.AddDays(index),
                TemperatureC = rng.Next(- 20.55), Summary = Summaries[rng.Next(Summaries.Length)] }) .ToArray(); }}}Copy the code
