What are some examples of using NLog for logging in C#?

NLog is a flexible and free logging platform for .NET. Here are a few examples of how to use it in C#.

Can you show me a simple example of logging to a file?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

using NLog;

class Program
{
    private static readonly Logger logger = LogManager.GetCurrentClassLogger();

    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        logger.Info("Application started.");
        // Your code here
        logger.Info("Application ended.");
    }
}

How do I configure NLog in the appsettings.json?

You can configure NLog in your appsettings.json like this:

{
  "NLog": {
    "targets": {
      "file": {
        "type": "File",
        "fileName": "logs/app.log"
      }
    },
    "rules": [{
      "logger": "*",
      "minLevel": "Info",
      "writeTo": "file"
    }]
  }
}
