I am using Serilog for logging and cant' figure out how to separate log events to different files. For example, I want to log errors to error_log-ddmmyyyy.txt and warnings to warn_log-ddmmyyyy.txt.
Here goes my logger configuration:
Log.Logger = new LoggerConfiguration()
.WriteTo.Logger(lc =>
lc.Filter.ByIncludingOnly(Matching.WithProperty("Level", "Warning"))
.WriteTo.RollingFile(
Path.Combine(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory, @"Logs\warn_log-{Date}.txt"),
outputTemplate: OutputTemplate))
.WriteTo.Logger(lc =>
lc.Filter.ByIncludingOnly(Matching.WithProperty("Level", "Error"))
.WriteTo.RollingFile(
Path.Combine(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory, @"Logs\error_log-{Date}.txt"),
outputTemplate: OutputTemplate))
.CreateLogger();
It only works when I specify {Level} property exatcly in log message.
I was trying to use:
Matching.WithProperty<LogEventLevel>("Level", l => l == LogEventLevel.Warning)
but it didn't work too.
I use the following configuration and it works for me:
Log.Logger = new LoggerConfiguration()
.MinimumLevel.Debug()
.WriteTo.LiterateConsole()
.WriteTo.Logger(l => l.Filter.ByIncludingOnly(e => e.Level == LogEventLevel.Information).WriteTo.RollingFile(@"Logs\Info-{Date}.log"))
.WriteTo.Logger(l => l.Filter.ByIncludingOnly(e => e.Level == LogEventLevel.Debug ).WriteTo.RollingFile(@"Logs\Debug-{Date}.log"))
.WriteTo.Logger(l => l.Filter.ByIncludingOnly(e => e.Level == LogEventLevel.Warning ).WriteTo.RollingFile(@"Logs\Warning-{Date}.log"))
.WriteTo.Logger(l => l.Filter.ByIncludingOnly(e => e.Level == LogEventLevel.Error ).WriteTo.RollingFile(@"Logs\Error-{Date}.log"))
.WriteTo.Logger(l => l.Filter.ByIncludingOnly(e => e.Level == LogEventLevel.Fatal ).WriteTo.RollingFile(@"Logs\Fatal-{Date}.log"))
.WriteTo.RollingFile(@"Logs\Verbose-{Date}.log")
.CreateLogger();
