Hangfire.JobsLogger

Overview

A Hangfire extension to store a log during job execution

Installation

Install a package from Nuget.

Install-Package Hangfire.JobsLogger

Usage

DotNetCore

For service side:

services.AddHangfire(config => config.UseSqlServerStorage(Configuration.GetConnectionString("HangfireConnection"))
                                                 .UseJobsLogger();

NetFramework

For startup side:

GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.UseSqlServerStorage("HangfireConnection").UseJobsLogger();

Example

using Hangfire.JobsLogger;

RecurringJob.AddOrUpdate(() => taskExample.TaskMethod(null), Cron.Minutely);

//...

private readonly ILogger _log = ApplicationLogging.CreateLogger<TaskExample>();

public void TaskMethod(PerformContext context)
{
  var jobId = context.BackgroundJob.Id;

  foreach (int i in Enumerable.Range(1, 10)) 
  {
    context.LogTrace($"{i} - Trace Message.. {DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks}");
    context.LogDebug($"{i} - Debug Message.. {DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks}");
    context.LogInformation($"{i} - Information Message.. {DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks}");
    context.LogWarning($"{i} - Warning Message.. {DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks}");
    context.LogError($"{i} - Error Message.. {DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks}");
    context.LogCritical($"{i} - Critical Message.. {DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks}");

    //Traditional ILogger Usage
    _log.LogTrace(jobId: jobId, $"{i} - Trace Message.. {DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks}");
    _log.LogDebug(jobId: jobId, $"{i} - Debug Message.. {DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks}");
    _log.LogInformation(jobId: jobId, $"{i} - Information Message.. {DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks}");
    _log.LogWarning(jobId: jobId, $"{i} - Warning Message.. {DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks}");
    _log.LogError(jobId: jobId, $"{i} - Error Message.. {DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks}");
    _log.LogCritical(jobId: jobId, $"{i} - Critical Message.. {DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks}");
  }
}

Note Hangfire is responsible for injecting an instance of the PerformContext class.

The logs can be consulted in the detail of the logs on the enqueued state card:

Options
