在运行时添加/删除 serilog 日志记录级别覆盖

Question

I am using Serilog in.Net 6 WebApi and the required serilog settings, including default logging level and few overrides, are currently being set via appsettings. However, I am looking for a way to dynamically add/remove logging level override for additional namespaces during runtime so that I can capture additional logs on demand for troubleshooting issues, without redeploying the application with setting changes. Is this possible? Any guidance available on how this can be achieved?

Thanks!

You can implement a custom configuration provider in .NET Core which reads the configuration from Database. And you may need to implement Reload option as well. So when you update the database - your configuration will get updated. Here are some references which may help you.
