CSharpEssentials.LoggerHelper 4.0.0

📦 CSharpEssentials.LoggerHelper

The ultimate Serilog sink hub — extensible, modular, centralized.

💡 Why CSharpEssentials.LoggerHelper?

CSharpEssentials.LoggerHelper is not just another logging library — it’s a smart hub for Serilog sinks.
Thanks to its modular architecture, you can plug in only the sinks you need.

Key strengths include:

• Centralized & flexible configuration – Choose which sinks receive which log levels using appsettings.LoggerHelper.json. For example, send only Error messages to Email while routing all logs to ElasticSearch. No code changes required.

• *- Unified observability & dashboard – The Sink.Telemetry package integrates logs, metrics and traces via OpenTelemetry. Each log entry carries a trace_id so you can correlate distributed requests. An interactive dashboard lets you visualize traces, sink errors and telemetry, and configure alerts.

• Structured properties & enrichment – Standard fields like IdTransaction, ApplicationName, MachineName and Action are included by default. You can add custom properties (e.g., username, IP) with enricher functions, and they'll appear across all sinks.

• Modular architecture & error inspection – Each sink (Console, File, MSSQL, PostgreSQL, ElasticSearch, Email, Telegram, xUnit, Telemetry) is a separate NuGet package. Install only what you need; the core loads them dynamically. It also exposes CurrentError and an in-memory Errors queue to help debug initialization failures.

🧠 Error Insight Built-In:
When something goes wrong, you can inspect:

• CurrentError: the last exception message
• Errors: the complete in-memory queue of failures
  Perfect for debugging deployment or configuration issues.

🆕 What’s New in 3.1.5?

✨ Added Sink: xUnit

When running tests in environments like DevOps pipelines, DBs and external endpoints may not always be accessible.
No worries — with the xUnit sink, you get a full trace of failed tests directly inside your test output.
Just install the package and define your desired levels (Information, Warning, Error, etc.).

Perfect for debugging flaky tests or disconnected environments.
