What happened to retainedFileTimeLimit option

[gokayokutucu]

Is retainedFileTimeLimit option removed or renamed? I need to delete files older than specified days. Is there any way to do it?

[nblumhardt]

It's still there. You'll need to post what you've tried, and what error message you receive. HTH!

I installed Serilog.Sinks.File 4.1.0, but this parameter does not appear when using configuration with code.
Here is the code that I used:

 new LoggerConfiguration()
                .ReadFrom.Configuration(configuration)
                .WriteTo.File(
                    path: "log-.log",
                    shared: true,
                    retainedFileCountLimit:100,
                    rollOnFileSizeLimit: fileSizeLimitBytes != 0,
                    fileSizeLimitBytes: fileSizeLimitBytes,
                    outputTemplate: "{Timestamp:yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.fff zzz} [{Level:u3}] {Message:lj}{NewLine}{Exception}",
                    rollingInterval: RollingInterval.Day)
                .Enrich.FromLogContext()
                .CreateLogger();

Sorry, my mistake - you need the 5.0.0-dev* versions of the package for this.

OK, thanks!

@nblumhardt We have been waiting for this feature for long. When do you plan to merge this change to master?

[nblumhardt]

Thanks for the nudge! How is the -dev package going for you? Does the feature work the way you need it to, @hnigam-git ?
