nlog.elmah's Issues

Can't set Elmah Source.

Per title, I'd like to be able to have the source written to the Elmah table. At the moment, when using this very handy utility, the source column is blank.

I know Elmah uses ApplicationName in it's settings, but Source is useful for defining different sub systems of a larger app.

(apologies if there is a way to do this, but I can't see it in the docs!)

Only log to ELMAH if there's an exception

Can we get an option to only send logs to ELMAH when there's a logged exception to go with it?

How do you use this library?

Hi. Love this library. But beyond the name, I have not a clue how to use it in my project. Does this take calls to NLog and send them to ELMAH? How do you use it? Just a few sentences would help me tremendously.

I have an ASP.NET MVC app that has NLog and I'd like to add ELMAH, so that all existing NLog calls get sent to ELMAH. Thanks.

Apply Elmah target to all controllers

Hi @304NotModified. Is it possible to apply the [Target("Elmah")] attribute to all controllers? I was thinking of adding it via FilterConfig.cs as a global filter:

public static void RegisterGlobalFilters(GlobalFilterCollection filters)
{
	filters.Add(new HandleErrorAttribute());
	filters.Add(new ElmahTarget());
}

It errored out on the above with this message:

The given filter instance must implement one or more of the following filter interfaces: System.Web.Mvc.IAuthorizationFilter, System.Web.Mvc.IActionFilter, System.Web.Mvc.IResultFilter, System.Web.Mvc.IExceptionFilter, System.Web.Mvc.Filters.IAuthenticationFilter.

Other than to add the attribute to a base controller/class, is it possible to have it applied globally? This would send all NLog log information to Elmah as well for the entire app. Thanks

migrate to xUnit

Add license file + license to nupkg

.NET Core support?

Does this support .net core?

Can you provide a sample showing it working under asp.net core?

Thanks.
