Microsoft.Diagnostics.EventFlow for ReflectInsight

Getting Started

The ReflectInsight EventFlow is an extension to the Microsoft.Diagnostics.EventFlow set of Output sources.

More information can be found here: Microsoft.Diagnostics.EventFlow

ReflectInsight Implementation

Nuget package: Microsoft.Diagnostics.EventFlow.Outputs.ReflectInsight

All configured input events will be captured and sent to ReflectInsight, which in turn redirects them to one or more configured destinations (i.e. Live Viewer, etc.).

Configuration example

{
  "type": "ReflectInsight",
  "instanceName": "myInstance"
}

Supported configuration settings are:

Field	Values/Types	Required	Description
type	"ReflectInsight"	Yes	Specifies the output type. For this output, it must be "ReflectInsight".
instanceName	string	No	The name of the Instance to used configured in the ReflectInsight.config file, if any.

Example: In this example, Trace is assumed as one of the Input sources

using Microsoft.Diagnostics.EventFlow;
using System;

namespace EventFlowReflectInsightConsole
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            using (var pipeline = DiagnosticPipelineFactory.CreatePipeline("eventFlowConfig.json"))
            {
                // In this example, Trace is assumed as one of the Input sources.
                System.Diagnostics.Trace.TraceWarning("EventFlow is working!");
                System.Diagnostics.Trace.TraceError("EventFlow is working!");
                Console.ReadLine();
            }
        }
    }
}

Platform Support

EventFlow supports full .NET Framework (.NET 4.5 series and 4.6 series) and .NET Core, but not all inputs and outputs are supported on all platforms. The following table lists platform support for standard inputs and outputs.
