NextGenSoftware.Logging

A flexible, pluggable logging library with a clean ILogger/ILogProvider abstraction — used across the entire OASIS Omniverse ecosystem (HoloNET, OASIS API, STAR ODK, OurWorld, and more).

NuGet License: MIT .NET

Part of the OASIS Omniverse v2.0 Reboot. Visit oasisomniverse.one.


Features

  • Pluggable provider model — register multiple simultaneous providers; all receive every log call
  • Built-in DefaultLogger with configurable colour output
  • File logger out of the box
  • NLog integration via the companion NextGenSoftware.Logging.NLog package
  • Write your own provider by implementing ILogProvider
  • Configurable log levels and async log dispatch
  • Multi-target: .NET 8, .NET 9, .NET 10

Installation

dotnet add package NextGenSoftware.Logging

Quick Start

using NextGenSoftware.Logging;

var logger = new Logger();
logger.RegisterProvider(new DefaultLogger());        // coloured console
logger.RegisterProvider(new FileLogger("app.log"));  // file output

logger.Log("Application started.", LogType.Info);
logger.Log("Something went wrong!", LogType.Error);

Custom Provider

public class MyProvider : ILogProvider
{
    public void Log(string message, LogType logType)
    {
        MyTelemetrySystem.Send(message, logType.ToString());
    }
}
logger.RegisterProvider(new MyProvider());

Log Levels

Level Use
LogType.Debug Verbose trace for development
LogType.Info Normal operational messages
LogType.Warning Recoverable unexpected conditions
LogType.Error Failures requiring attention

Package Downloads
NextGenSoftware.Holochain.HoloNET.Client

The world's first .NET & Unity client for Holochain. Fully supporting Holochain 0.7.1 and 0.7.0 — Kitsune2/iroh (QUIC) as sole network backend (tx5/WebRTC removed), new paginated DumpOpTimings admin and app API, AwaitingMemproofs app status, updated AdminWebsocket and AppWebsocket conductor APIs. Lightweight version: does not bundle the Holochain binaries. Use NextGenSoftware.Holochain.HoloNET.Client.Embedded if you want the conductor auto-started and managed for you.

NextGenSoftware.Holochain.HoloNET.Client.Embedded

The world's first .NET & Unity client for Holochain. Fully supporting Holochain 0.7.1 and 0.7.0 — Kitsune2/iroh (QUIC) networking, paginated DumpOpTimings, AwaitingMemproofs app status, and the complete conductor API. This version bundles hc.exe and holochain.exe (v0.7.1 or v0.7.0) so the Holochain Conductor is auto-started and managed for you. Set HolochainConductorMode.UseEmbedded to activate. For the lightweight version without binaries use NextGenSoftware.Holochain.HoloNET.Client.

NextGenSoftware.WebSocket

A lightweight, high-performance WebSocket client library with a clean event-driven API (OnConnected, OnDisconnected, OnDataReceived, OnError, and more). Used internally by HoloNET (Holochain .NET client) and the OASIS ecosystem. Supports .NET 8, .NET 9, and .NET 10. Easy to embed in any .NET app needing reliable, long-lived WebSocket connections. Part of the OASIS Omniverse ecosystem at https://oasisomniverse.one -- Source: https://github.com/NextGenSoftwareUK/NextGenSoftware-Libraries

NextGenSoftware.OASIS.Common

The shared foundation layer for the entire OASIS ecosystem -- OASISResult/OASISResultCollectionWithPagination result types, shared constants, extension methods, cross-cutting error handling, and utility helpers relied upon by every other OASIS NuGet package. A transitive dependency of all OASIS packages. Part of the OASIS Omniverse at https://oasisomniverse.one

NextGenSoftware.Holochain.HoloNET.ORM

Powerful ORM built on top of HoloNET Client for Holochain. Enables rapid hApp development via HoloNETEntryBase, HoloNETAuditEntryBase, HoloNETCollection and HoloNETObservableCollection — call Load, Save, Delete with automatic change tracking and rollback. Supports Holochain 0.7.1 and 0.7.0. Lightweight version: use NextGenSoftware.Holochain.HoloNET.ORM.Embedded if you want the conductor auto-started.

## v2.0.4

- NextGenSoftware.Logging: file logging no longer slows down as log files accumulate (it listed and checked every file in the log folder on every line, so apps that log a lot - like HoloNET, which logs on its WebSocket thread - timed out); writes are serialised in-process; only MaxLogFiles (default 50) log files are kept. Faulty log providers can't break logging (snapshot of providers).
- NextGenSoftware.WebSocket: the receive loop runs on the thread pool (it inherited the caller's SynchronizationContext, so WPF/WinForms apps handled every message on the UI thread and froze on any blocking call); TrySendRawDataAsync reports send failures instead of throwing.
- All NextGenSoftware libraries bumped to 2.0.4 together.
