Database Entry in ASP.NET Core MVC 6

Question

In my old MVC5 project, all the log data was stored in the sql server database via log4net. I would like to keep the ASP.NET 5 log structure without using log4net. Is it possible to save logs in a database table? What code should I use?

Answer 1

You can implement ILoggerFactory and ILogger , but you like to include, for example, writing to the database.

Here is an example implementation of ILogger that uses EntityFramework 6 to save logs to a database.

Answer 2

I created a new project that is more flexible and affordable for the Entity Framework Core. Here is the GitHub project site:
