LogInformant.Serilog.DotNetCore

Send logs to LogInformant from any .NET 6+ / ASP.NET Core application using Serilog.

Using .NET Framework 4.8? Use LogInformant.Serilog.DotNetFramework instead.

Install

dotnet add package LogInformant.Serilog.DotNetCore

Quick Start (ASP.NET Core)

Program.cs

using LogInformant.Serilog.DotNetCore;

builder.Host.UseSerilog((ctx, cfg) =>
    cfg.ReadFrom.Configuration(ctx.Configuration)
       .WriteTo.LogInformant(
           apiUrl: "https://app.loginformant.com",
           apiKey: ctx.Configuration["LogInformant:ApiKey"]!));

appsettings.json

{
  "LogInformant": {
    "ApiKey": "YOUR-API-KEY-HERE"
  }
}

That's it. Your logs appear in LogInformant within seconds.

Usage

Inject ILogger<T> as normal — logs flow automatically:

public class OrderService(ILogger<OrderService> logger)
{
    public void PlaceOrder(int orderId)
    {
        logger.LogInformation("Order {OrderId} placed", orderId);

        try { /* process */ }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            logger.LogError(ex, "Failed to place order {OrderId}", orderId);
            throw;
        }
    }
}

Code-Only Setup (Console Apps, Workers)

using Serilog;
using LogInformant.Serilog.DotNetCore;

Log.Logger = new LoggerConfiguration()
    .MinimumLevel.Debug()
    .WriteTo.Console()
    .WriteTo.LogInformant(
        apiUrl: "https://app.loginformant.com",
        apiKey: "YOUR-API-KEY-HERE")
    .CreateLogger();

Log.Information("Worker started");
// ...
Log.CloseAndFlush(); // flush before process exit

Multiple Environments

Use a different API key per environment — each key maps to a named environment in LogInformant:

{
  "LogInformant": {
    "ApiKey": "YOUR-PROD-KEY"
  }
}
// appsettings.Development.json
{
  "LogInformant": {
    "ApiKey": "YOUR-DEV-KEY"
  }
}

Options

Parameter Default Description
apiUrl — Your LogInformant API base URL
apiKey — API key from your application's settings page
batchSize 50 Maximum logs per HTTP request
period 2s How often to flush the batch
