Fineboym.Logging.Generator 1.3.0

Logging Decorator Generator

Generates logger decorator class for an interface. Uses Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.ILogger<{Your interface}> to log and requires it in decorator class constructor. Logs method parameters and return value. Supports async methods. Supports log level, event id, and event name override through attribute. Can measure method duration for performance reporting. Follows high-performance logging guidance by .NET team-> https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/extensions/high-performance-logging

Getting started

NuGet: https://www.nuget.org/packages/Fineboym.Logging.Generator/

Use [DecorateWithLogger] attribute in Fineboym.Logging.Attributes namespace on an interface. In Visual Studio you can see the generated code in Solution Explorer if you expand Dependencies->Analyzers->Fineboym.Logging.Generator.

Prerequisites

Latest version of Visual Studio 2022.

Usage

using Fineboym.Logging.Attributes;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Logging;

namespace SomeFolder.SomeSubFolder;

// Default log level is Debug, applied to all methods. Can be changed through attribute's constructor.
[DecorateWithLogger]
public interface ISomeService
{
    int SomeMethod(DateTime someDateTime);

    // Override log level and event id. EventName is also supported.
    [LogMethod(Level = LogLevel.Information, EventId = 100, MeasureDuration = true)]
    Task<double?> SomeAsyncMethod(string? s);
}

This will create a generated class named SomeServiceLoggingDecorator in the same namespace as the interface.

Additional documentation

If you use .NET dependency injection, then you can decorate your service interface using, for example, Scrutor-> https://github.com/khellang/Scrutor Go here for explanation-> https://andrewlock.net/adding-decorated-classes-to-the-asp.net-core-di-container-using-scrutor/

Limitations

Currently it supports simple interfaces, only with methods as its members and up to 6 parameters in a method which is what LoggerMessage.Define supports (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/microsoft.extensions.logging.loggermessage.define?view=dotnet-plat-ext-7.0).
