I've thought for a while know that the logging mechanism has been somewhat lacklustre - it's impossible to read, has no rotation options and is not rendered in any significant way within the interface.

Therefore I propose we replace logging with Apache Log4Net which is probably the most widely used logging framework within the .NET community.

Specifically this would allow for 3 things:

  • Easy logging to a SQLite database
  • Strict formatting conventions
  • Easily abstracted and extractable through a common interface - we could display this in a filterable datatable in the admin interface as oppose to a link to a text file.

Serilog is another option. Seems pretty popular with newer Core projects. Not sure on a feature comparison though.

I have used Serilog in the past, and really like it. It's super easy to set up and customize.
