Adding custom Requester into .Net DI

[Guram-K]

I'm trying to add into DI custom Requester to implement logging for my application but can't seem to find correct way of doing it. I had few attempts but it doesn't enter the overriden methods, what's the proper way of registering custom requester with overrides from Requester as a base class?

Using .Net 6 and latest version of RestEase

public class LoggingRequester: Requester
{
    public LoggingRequester(HttpClient httpClient) : base(httpClient) { }

    public override async Task<T> RequestAsync<T>(IRequestInfo requestInfo)
    {
        //todo: log request

        var response = await base.RequestAsync<T>(requestInfo);

        //todo: log response

        return response;
    }
}

I assume you're using HttpClientFactory? You should be able to do:

services.AddRestEaseClient<ISomeApi>("https://api.example.com")
    .AddHttpMessageHandler<LoggingRequester>()

Where LoggingRequester inherits from DelegatingHandler.

Yes I'm using HttpClientFactory.
AddHttpMessageHandler() adds a DelegatingHandler and that's not what I'm trying to achieve, I'm trying to override existing Requester class to add extra functionality while still calling base.RequestVoidAsync(requestInfo), base.RequestWithResponseAsync<T>(requestInfo)and other functions, basically this is what I'm trying to do:

but can't figure out how to provide an instance of my subclass to RestClient.For<T>.

Ah right, yeah there's no support for this with HttpClientFactory yet. I can get that in shortly...

Ok, if you could add it in feature versions would be really useful.
Thanks for help.

This will be out in v1.6.1 shortly

Just tried it out, works like a charm.
For anyone who will search for a quick answer you can register it like this:

services.AddRestEaseClient<ISomeApi>("https://api.example.com", new()
    {
        RequesterFactory = httpClient => new CustomRequester(httpClient)
    }
);
