## Why?

My logs were 

* hard to read 

* filling up space(*) 

## What is this?

It's not possible to configure the log pattern of the Microsoft.Extensions.Http based HttpClient loggers. To modify, one has to replace them. This package replaces the default loggers with a logger that:

1. Reduces the number of log statements on httpclient requests from 4 to 1 

2. Logs 1 aggregated log statement: `{Method} {Uri} - {StatusCode} {StatusCodeLiteral} in {Time}ms`

### Change in output

Before:

```log

info: Start processing HTTP request GET https://www.google.com/

info: Sending HTTP request GET https://www.google.com/

info: Received HTTP response headers after 188.6041ms - 200

info: End processing HTTP request after 188.8026ms - 200

```

After:

```log

info: GET https://www.google.com/ - 200 OK in 186.4883ms

```

## Install

```sh

$ dotnet add package MinimalHttpLogger

```

## Usage

```csharp

services.UseMinimalHttpLogger();

```

(*) I'm cheap. My Papertrail account stops logging when reaching a certain szie, so reducing the log helps
