Serilog - Output/Enrich All Messages with MethodName from which log entry was Called

Question

Is there anyway to enrich all Serilog output with the Method Name.

For Instance consider If I have the following;

Public Class MyClassName

  Private Function MyFunctionName() As Boolean
      Logger.Information("Hello World")
      Return True
  End Function

End Class

The desired output would be as follows;

2015-04-06 18:41:35.361 +10:00 [Information] [MyFunctionName] Hello World!

Actually the Fully Qualified Name would be good.

2015-04-06 18:41:35.361 +10:00 [Information] [MyClassName.MyFunctionName] Hello World!

It seems that "Enrichers" are only good for Static Information and won't work each time.

in case you need a version in C#:

public static class LoggerExtensions
{
    public static ILogger Here(this ILogger logger,
        [CallerMemberName] string memberName = "",
        [CallerFilePath] string sourceFilePath = "",
        [CallerLineNumber] int sourceLineNumber = 0) {
        return logger
            .ForContext("MemberName", memberName)
            .ForContext("FilePath", sourceFilePath)
            .ForContext("LineNumber", sourceLineNumber);
    }
}

use like this:

// at the beginning of the class
private static Serilog.ILogger Log => Serilog.Log.ForContext<MyClass>();

// in the method
Log.Here().Information("Hello, world!");

Remember to add those properties in the message template. You can use something like this:

var outputTemplate = "[{Timestamp:HH:mm:ss} {Level}] {SourceContext}{NewLine}{Message}{NewLine}in method {MemberName} at {FilePath}:{LineNumber}{NewLine}{Exception}{NewLine}";

Log.Logger = new LoggerConfiguration()
            .MinimumLevel.Warning()
            .Enrich.FromLogContext()
            .WriteTo.RollingFile("log/{Date}.log", outputTemplate, LogEventLevel.Warning)
            .WriteTo.Console(LogEventLevel.Warning, outputTemplate, theme: AnsiConsoleTheme.Literate)
            .CreateLogger();
