Lavspent.BrowserLogger

What?!

Let you use your browser as a log target from any Asp.Net Core application.

How?!

Install:

install-package Lavspent.BrowserLogger

In your code:

public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
    // ...
    services.AddBrowserLogger();
    services.Configure<BrowserLoggerOptions>(Configuration.GetSection("Logging"));
}

public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IHostingEnvironment env)
{
    // ...
    app.UseWebSockets();
    app.UseBrowserLogger();
}

In your browser:

http://localhost:5000/console

lavspent.browserlogger's Issues

Serilog / ILogger

This is very nice idea - was looking exactly for something like that!

How to explicitly do a log? i.e: browserLogger.Debug("This is a log message");

Serilog exposes an ILogger just the same as the built in ILogger instance of dotnetcore.
I have successfully activated BrowserLogger and i see it is connected but though serilog is logging BrowserLogger isnt.

I am thinking maybe a logging middleware with explicit browserLogger logging method can solve my issue.

Long term fix is add a BrowserLogger serilog sink - are you interested in something like that?
Meanwhile if there is no such method (call a log function) would it be possible to add it - thanks :D
