Broadcast your servers´ logs to websocket connections in real-time with minimal effort.

Features:

  • Fully integrated with NLog: it does not require changes in your application code beyond the configuration.
  • Optional integrated log viewer SPA: To view log events in real-time.
  • Scalable: NLog and WebSocketServer components are decoupled by a producer-consumer pattern, so NLog will append the log entries to WebSocketTarget in O(1) time always, and another thread/threads are responsible of distributing that log entry to the clients. Still, if the component has a big number of connected clients, it may interfere with your application performance. See the MaxConnectedClients configuration setting. The queue is configured to have a bounding capacity of 1000 items, if the queue gets full, items will start to be discarded.

As said, it includes a SPA-Webclient to view the logs directly, featuring:

  • Simplified live log monitoring with a simple web browser app.
  • Filter by log levels.
  • Deactivate or replace it with your own.
  • Not a replacement of a proper monitoring tool, but handy for watching over logs with little logistic effort.

NLog.Contrib.Targets.WebSocketServer.Core is a NLog target that instead of writing on a file, or showing the log on the console, broadcasts the log events to the connected websocket connections.
