How can I query the path to an NLog log file?

I've configured a file target for NLog as follows:

<targets>
  <target name="asyncFile" xsi:type="AsyncWrapper">
    <target xsi:ty开发者_如何转开发pe="File" name="logfile" fileName="${basedir}/Logs/${shortdate}.log"
          layout="${longdate} ${uppercase:${level}} ${message}" />
  </target>    
</targets>

How can I query the actual filesystem path (fileName) of this File target via NLog's API?

    private string GetLogFile()
    {
        var fileTarget = LogManager.Configuration.AllTargets.FirstOrDefault(t => t is FileTarget) as FileTarget;
        return fileTarget == null ? string.Empty : fileTarget.FileName.Render(new LogEventInfo { Level = LogLevel.Info });
    }

I've just tried to get this information via the configuration api.

Sadly it looks like the configuration is evaluated by the actual target and is not resolved in the configuration.

As {basedir} refers to the appdomain base directory you could simply read this value on your own.

var basedirPath = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory;

You could use nLog's api inside of code instead of an xml configuration file. Then, in your application, you assign the log's file path to a variable, and use that variable as the target's filename. You can access that variable, OR change it anytime you like (my snippet, here, is defined inside of a class).

Private MainNlogConfig As New LoggingConfiguration()
Dim localrule As New LoggingRule(*, LogLevel.Info, locallogtarget)
MainNlogConfig..AddTarget("file", locallogtarget)

With locallogtarget
    .Layout = "${longdate} ${logger} ${message}"
    .FileName = appdir & appName & ".log"  '----->LOOK HERE!
End With
LogManager.Configuration = MainNlogConfig
