How to use library :

You can create logger in 2 different ways : with default configuration or with manual configuration:

using DumbLogger;

//Logger with default configuration
LogWriter DefaultLogger = LogManager.GetLogger("LoggerName");

using DumbLogger;
using DumbLogger.Configuration;

//Logger with custon configuration
LogConfig logConfig = new LogConfig(
    logName : "ManualLogger",
    logFormat: LogFormatEnum.Csv,
    logLevel: LogLevelEnum.Error,
    logFileName: "MyFirstLogger.csv"
);
LogWriter manualLogger = LogManager.GetLogger(logConfig);

For loggers with default configuration it is possible to set up default settings:

LogConfig.SetDefaultValues(logDirectory: @"D:\",logFormat: LogFormatEnum.Csv, logLevel: LogLevelEnum.Fatal);

Available formats for logging: XML, JSON, CSV.

LogFormatEnum.Csv
LogFormatEnum.Json
LogFormatEnum.Xml

3 variants of log messages are available:

manualLogger.Debug("Log message Debug");

manualLogger.Error("Log message Error");

catch (Exception e)
{
    manualLogger.Fatal("Log message Fatal", e);
}

To read log file use method ReadLogFile() (data from log file will be written into Console)

manualLogger.ReadLogFile();
