This work is based on that done by _Casey MacPherson_ [here](https://www.codedad.net/2017/08/26/asp-net-core-2-response-logging-2/)

logly is a library written for ASP.NET Core. Its purpose to to make request and response logging more modular and beautiful.

Here is an example of what it looks like:

## Prerequisite 

To prevent the default logging by ASP.NET Core, you would need to make some changes to the default `BuildWebHost` method.

This:

```csharp

public static IWebHost BuildWebHost(string[] args) =>

            WebHost.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)

                .UseStartup()

                .Build();

```

becomes this:

```csharp

public static IWebHost BuildWebHost(string[] args) =>

            WebHost.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)

                .ConfigureLogging((context, logging) =>

                {

                    logging.ClearProviders();

                })

                .UseStartup()

                .Build();

```

## Setup

To add logging, there are two ways, the simple way where you add the following line to the `Configure` method in the `Startup.cs` file.

```csharp

app.UseLogly();

```

that adds request method, response status code logging and response time logging. If you want to specify more logging options, you can use the `LoggerOptionsBuilder`, as shown below.

```csharp

app.UseLogly(opts => opts

                    .AddRequestMethod()

                    .AddStatusCode()

                    .AddResponseTime()

                    .AddUrl()

                    .AddResponseLength());

```
