Logging
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
Microsoft ASP.NET WebHooks uses logging as a way of reporting issues and problems. By
|
|
default logs are written using `System.Diagnostics.Trace <https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.diagnostics.trace>`_ where they can be manged using
|
|
`Trace Listeners <https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.diagnostics.tracelistener.aspx>`_
|
|
like any other log stream.
|
|
|
|
When deploying your Web Application as an Azure Web App, the logs are automatically picked up and can be
|
|
managed together with any other `System.Diagnostics.Trace`_ logging. For details, please see `Enable diagnostics
|
|
logging for web apps in Azure App Service <https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/web-sites-enable-diagnostic-log/>`_
|
|
|
|
In addition, logs can be obtained straight from inside Visual Studio as described in `Troubleshoot a web app in Azure App Service using
|
|
Visual Studio <https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/web-sites-dotnet-troubleshoot-visual-studio/#webserverlogs>`_.
|
|
|
|
Redirecting Logs
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
Instead of writing logs to `System.Diagnostics.Trace`_, it is possible to provide an alternate logging implementation that
|
|
can log directly to a log manager such as `Log4Net <http://logging.apache.org/log4net/>`_ and `NLog <http://nlog-project.org/>`_.
|
|
Simply provide an implementation of `ILogger <https://github.com/aspnet/WebHooks/blob/master/src/Microsoft.AspNet.WebHooks.Common/Diagnostics/ILogger.cs>`_
|
|
and register it with a dependency injection engine of your choice and it will get picked up by Microsoft ASP.NET WebHooks.
|
|
Please see `Dependency Injection in ASP.NET Web API 2 <http://www.asp.net/web-api/overview/advanced/dependency-injection>`_ for details. |
