NLog.Extensions.Logging 6.2.0
NLog.Extensions.Logging
NLog.Extensions.Logging integrates NLog as a logging provider for Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.
Application code can continue using ILogger<T>, while NLog provides powerful logging capabilities including:
- Capture structured message properties from the Microsoft ILogger
- Capture scope context properties from the Microsoft ILogger
BeginScope - Load NLog configuration from appsettings.json
- Routing logging output to multiple destinations via the available NLog Targets
- Enrich logging output with additional context details via the available NLog LayoutRenderers
- Rendering logging output into standard formats like JSON, CVS, W3C ELF and XML using NLog Layouts.
If using ASP.NET Core, use NLog.Web.AspNetCore.
Supported platforms:
- .NET 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10
- .NET Standard 2.0 and 2.1
- .NET 4.6.2 - 4.8
