I guess, you are using Microsoft.Framework.Logging But out-of-the-box implementations are provided for basic console logging and a few other targets, you'll need a logging back-end like Serilog or NLog to gain the kind of functionality you're requesting.

I would recommend you to use NLog (just personal preference)

Install-Package NLog 

then add to your code

loggerFactory.AddNLog(new global::NLog.LogFactory());
