[alexangas]

Type: Bug (documentation) / Feature Request

NLog version: 4.5.6

NLog.Web/NLog.Web.AspNetCore version: 4.5.4

NLog.Extensions.Logging version: N/A

Platform: ASP.NET Core 2.0

Current NLog config:

layout="${aspnet-request-cookie:CookieNames=TestCookie}"

In case of a BUG:

• What is the current result?
  Will print

TestCookie=TheCookieValue

• What is the expected result?
  As per documentation, value of the cookie not including its name written to the log.

TheCookieValue

• Did you checked the Internal log? No, not an error.

• Please post full exception details (message, stacktrace, inner exceptions): N/A

• Are there any workarounds? No

• Is there a version in which it did work? Don't Know

• Can you help us by writing an unit test? Absolutely

In case of a FEATURE REQUEST:

If this is a feature that should be added, perhaps as a flag like ValueOnly...

• Why do we need it?
  Our logs are parsed and having the key/value pair syntax causes a problem for this. We need the value only if possible.

I'm happy to add this feature if that is OK.

I'm happy to add this feature if that is OK.

👍 I propose a new option to the layout renderer. Please add some unit tests if possible.
