Project Description
PostSharp.Samples.Logging.ElasticStack: ClientExample
This is the client side of the PostSharp.Samples.Logging.ElasticStack example.
The InstrumentOutgoingRequestsAspect aspect is the most interesting part of this project. It instruments the HttpClient class. It basically does three things:
- Open a client-side activity (aka context), which emits log client-side records into Elastic Search.
- Set the
Request-Id
header of the outgoing HTTP request to theSyntheticId
of the newly created activity. - Set the
Correlation-Context
header ot the outgoing HTTP request to the baggage (i.e. cross-process properties). In this example, we've set a cross-process property namedUser
inProgram.Main
.
