是否在不更改代码的情况下通过配置支持NLog中Logger的链接？

Question

here is the configuration of my nlog:

<targets async="true">
    <target name="console" xsi:type="ColoredConsole" useDefaultRowHighlightingRules="false" layout="${date:format=MMM dd, yyyy hh\:mm\:ss.ff tt} | ${level} ${message}" >
    </target>

    <target xsi:type="File" name="app" fileName="logs\quantum_${shortdate}.log"
            layout="${date:universalTime=True:format=MMM dd, yyyy hh\:mm\:ss.ff tt} | ${event-properties:item=EventId_Id} ${uppercase:${level}} | ${message} ${exception:format=message}" />

    <target xsi:type="File" name="errors" fileName="logs\exceptions_${shortdate}.log"
            layout="${date:universalTime=True:format=MMM dd, yyyy hh\:mm\:ss.ff tt} | ${event-properties:item=EventId_Id} ${uppercase:${level}} | ${message} ${exception:format=tostring}" />

    <target xsi:type="File" name="aspcore" fileName="logs\aspcore_${shortdate}.log"
            layout="${date:universalTime=True:format=MMM dd, yyyy hh\:mm\:ss.ff tt} | ${event-properties:item=EventId_Id} | ${uppercase:${level}} | ${message} ${exception:format=tostring} | url: ${aspnet-request-url} | action: ${aspnet-mvc-action}" />
</targets>

<rules>
    <logger name="app" minlevel="Trace" writeTo="app,console" />
    <logger name ="appErrors" minlevel="Error" writeTo="errors" />
    <logger name="Microsoft.*" maxLevel="Error" writeTo="aspcore"/> 
</rules>

Now I want to chain the loggers, without changing the code based on condition. So that I log to app but when there is an Exception, the app should pass it down to appErrors which can actually record the complete exception.

so in the end app contains only the messages even of exceptions. while appError will contain the detail of all the exceptions that occurred. Is it possible using some configuration in nlog?

Answer 1

It looks like you already got that. I don't get what the appErrors should do, but you could do like this:

<rules>
    <logger name="app" minlevel="Trace" writeTo="app,console" />
    <logger name="app" minlevel="Error" writeTo="errors" />
    <logger name="Microsoft.*" maxLevel="Error" writeTo="aspcore"/> 
</rules>

So that all logs from app with LogLevel >= Error will be both in logs\\quantum_${shortdate}.log and (only error logs) in logs\\exceptions_${shortdate}.log
