.NET Monitor Repo

This repository contains the source code for dotnet-monitor, a diagnostic tool for capturing diagnostic artifacts in an operator-driven or automated manner.

Overview

Running a .NET application in diverse environments can make collecting diagnostics artifacts (e.g., logs, traces, process dumps) challenging. dotnet monitor is a tool that provides an unified way to collect these diagnostic artifacts regardless of where your application is run.

There are two different mechanisms for collection of these diagnostic artifacts:

• An HTTP API for on demand collection of artifacts. You can call these API endpoints when you already know your application is experiencing an issue and you are interested in gathering more information.
• Triggers for rule-based configuration for always-on collection of artifacts. You may configure rules to collect diagnostic artifacts when a desired condition is met, for example, collect a process dump when you have sustained high CPU.
