Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.Debug 10.0.0

About

Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.Debug provides a Debug output logger provider implementation for Microsoft.Extensions.Logging. This logger logs messages to a debugger monitor by writing messages with System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine().

Key Features

  • Allow logging to the debugger output.
  • Provide extensions method for the ILoggingBuilder class to easily enable this Debug logger.

How to Use

using System;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Logging;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.Debug;

namespace DebugLoggerSample
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            // Create a logger factory with a debug provider
            using ILoggerFactory loggerFactory = LoggerFactory.Create(builder => builder.AddDebug());

            // Create a logger with the category name of the current class
            ILogger<Program> logger = loggerFactory.CreateLogger<Program>();

            // Log some messages with different log levels and message templates
            logger.LogTrace("This is a trace message.");
            logger.LogDebug("This is a debug message.");
            logger.LogInformation("Hello {Name}!", "World");
            logger.LogWarning("This is a warning message.");
            logger.LogError("This is an error message.");
            logger.LogCritical("This is a critical message.");

            // Use structured logging to capture complex data
            var person = new Person { Name = "Alice", Age = 25 };
            logger.LogInformation("Created a new person: {@Person}", person);

            // Use exception logging to capture the details of an exception
            try
            {
                throw new Exception("Something went wrong.");
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                logger.LogError(ex, "An exception occurred.");
            }

            Console.WriteLine("Press any key to exit.");
            Console.ReadKey();
        }
    }

    // A simple class to demonstrate structured logging
    class Person
    {
        public string Name { get; set; }
        public int Age { get; set; }
    }
}
