NLog Database Target

NLog Database Target can write to any database that has ADO.NET Database Provider. Ex. NS-SQL, MySQL, SqLite, Oracle, etc.

Make sure to also install the nuget-package for the wanted Database Provider, and configure the DbProvider for the Database Target.

See the NLog Wiki for available options and examples.

Register Extension

NLog will only recognize type-alias database when loading from NLog.config-file, if having added extension to NLog.config-file:

<extensions>
    <add assembly="NLog.Database"/>
</extensions>

Alternative register from code using fluent configuration API:

LogManager.Setup().SetupExtensions(ext => ext.RegisterTarget<NLog.Targets.DatabaseTarget>());
