No rotation if size limit hits maximum

[fuzolan]

My expectation is that a new file should be written if the size limit reaches the maximum. Instead log-messages are lost.

I use the component in a asp core 2 project. Configuration is in appsettings.json.

I think we might look into enabling rollOnFileSizeLimit: true in this package :+1:

Hi @nblumhardt This is exactly what I need. I am new to Serilog and I have read source code of this repo but cannot find (or don't know) how to put rollOnFileSizeLimit: true. Could you show me, where it should be put? Therefore, I can make my own fork and add that feature. This discussion is old and it seems that this feature request will not be implemented soon.

Thanks

Hi @firstyuyu - it should be here I believe:

https://github.com/serilog/serilog-extensions-logging-file/blob/dev/src/Serilog.Extensions.Logging.File/Microsoft/Extensions/Logging/FileLoggerExtensions.cs#L146

HTH!

Hi @nblumhardt ,

Thanks. For anyone who face this issue, I have forked this repo and add two optional parameters on AddFile extension method.

• rollOnFileSizeLimit: the default value is true
• rollingInterval: the default value is RollingInterval.Day

The nuget packet is here The forked repo is here

Is there an update on officially implementing this in the main repo?

[nblumhardt]

@MikeRavenelle none at this point - a PR would be welcome if anyone is interested in taking a closer look.
