Disable request logging via HttpClient for single url-CodePudding

I have an own library that exposes health-check implementation via http client:

In StartupExtensions in my library:

services.AddHttpClient(Consts.HealthChecksHttpClientName, c =>
{
     c.BaseAddress = new Uri(options.BaseUrl);
     c.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Connection", "close");
});

How can I turn off default logging for the health-check url?

I KNOW I can disable all logs:

services.RemoveAll<IHttpMessageHandlerBuilderFilter>();

I don't want to remove all logs from all of http clients that do not belongs to the library - just want to disable only single url for my http client.

Is the way to override for it only for specified HttpClient? I do not want to use Serilog - only with standard Microsoft.Extensions.Logging

CodePudding user response：

Your logging filter should be depend on how we make use of HttpClient. For example, using like this

using var weatherHttpClient = new HttpClient()
// make using here

AFAIK, this case would be impossible to separate logging from HttpClient.

If we using HttpClient via DI, we could make a filter like this.

// Register with DI. I'm just a fan of named HttpClient, use your register as wished
services.AddHttpClient(nameof(WeatherService), cfg =>
{
    cfg.Timeout = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10);
    cfg.BaseAddress = new Uri("https://api.openweathermap.org");
});

// Using WeatherService class: 
private readonly HttpClient _httpClient; 

public WeatherService(IHttpClientFactory httpClientFactory)
{
    _httpClient = httpClientFactory.CreateClient(nameof(WeatherService));
}

// We can create a logging Filter on Program.cs like
public static IHostBuilder CreateHostBuilder(string[] args) =>
    Host.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)
        .ConfigureLogging(logging  =>
            {
                logging.AddFilter((_, category, _) => !category.StartsWith($"System.Net.Http.HttpClient.{nameof(WeatherService)}"));
            })

But I still feel it some way cumbersome... of not using Serilog, could you share the reason why say no to that ?
