如何在 serilog 日志文件名中使用属性值？

Question

If I have the following code:

.WriteTo.Logger(c =>
    c.Filter.ByIncludingOnly(Matching.WithProperty("tsBatchStarted"))
        .WriteTo.File(
            path: Path.Combine(
                      baseDir,
                      "App_Data",
                      "logs",
                      $"SERCrawlerLog_{tsBatchStarted}.txt")
            , restrictedToMinimumLevel: LogEventLevel.Information
            , outputTemplate: logTextTemplate
            //, rollingInterval: RollingInterval.Day
            , retainedFileCountLimit: 2
            , shared: true
) // end .WriteTo.Logger(c =>

I would like to have the property's value for tsBatchStarted in the file name...

How do I use an event's property value in the serilog's log file name ?

Answer 1

dotnet add package Serilog.Sinks.Map

Then:

    .WriteTo.Logger(c => c
        .Filter.ByIncludingOnly(Matching.WithProperty("tsBatchStarted"))
        .WriteTo.Map(
            "tsBatchStarted",
            "none",
            (tsBatchStarted, wt) => wt.File(
                path: Path.Combine(
                      baseDir,
                      "App_Data",
                      "logs",
                      $"SERCrawlerLog_{tsBatchStarted}.txt"),
                restrictedToMinimumLevel: LogEventLevel.Information,
                outputTemplate: logTextTemplate,
                shared: true
            ),
            sinkMapCountLimit: 2
        )
    ) // end .WriteTo.Logger(c =>

Note that this won't cause files to roll, you'll need to use an app based mechanism to clean up logs from old batches.
