Logentries currently has plugins for NLog, Log4net and Serilog.
To configure your application to log to Logentries, you will need to perform the following tasks:
- Create a Logentries account.
- Create a host and log to receive your log data.
- Adding the Plugin library and the appropriate Logentries Appender libraries to your application.
- Configure the Plugin and the Logentries appender in your application.
- Send log messages from your application.
These steps are outlined in further detail below.
You can register your account on Logentries by browning to https://logentries.com and simply clicking Sign Up
at the top of the page.
Once logged in to your Logentries account, create a new host with a name that best represents your application. Select this host and create a new log with a source type of Token TCP
(see below for more information) and a name that represents what you will be logging.
Please note that Logentries reads no particular meaning into the names of your hosts and logs; they are primarily for your own benefit in keeping your logs organized.
