SimpleSyslog

Syslog.Initialize("host.syslog.com", 12345);
Syslog.Info("Hello world!");

Sender will be the calling type

Customise the message format - e.g. to use with Loggly

Syslog.MessageFormat = "[bdda562d-b644-457e-9876-1fed861e7139@41058 tag=\"Example1\"] {message}"; 

Fix the sender and the facility

Syslog.Initialize("host.syslog.com", 12345, "MyAppName", 17);

Set the sender to a type

Syslog.Info<MyClass>("Hello world!");

Format the message

Syslog.Info("Hello {0}", "World!");

Use the Trace Listener

Trace.Listeners.Add(new SyslogTraceListener());
Trace.WriteLine("Hello trace!");

Use the Console Writer

Console.SetOut(new SyslogConsoleWriter());
Console.WriteLine("Hello console!");

SimpleSyslog.Portable

In this version you need to specify the client and the sender. Also, the API is asynchronous.

await Syslog.Initialize("host.syslog.com", 12345, "Jons Phone");
await Syslog.Info("AppStart", "Hello world!");

You can still use the generic overload to set the sender:

await Syslog.Info<AppStart>("Hello world!");
