Install theSerilog.Sinks.RichTextBox.Wpf package from NuGet:

Install-Package Serilog.Sinks.RichTextBox.Wpf-Prerelease

Declare yourRichTextBox control and give it a name that you can reference it from the code-behind. e.g.:

<Window (...)>  <RichTextBoxx:Name="MyRichTextBox"Background="Black"Foreground="LightGray"FontFamily="Cascadia Mono, Consolas, Courier New, monospace"VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Auto"  /></Window>

Then enable the sink usingWriteTo.RichTextBox():

Log.Logger=newLoggerConfiguration().WriteTo.RichTextBox(MyRichTextBox).CreateLogger();Log.Information("Hello, world!");

Log events will be written to theRichTextBox control:

[11:54:36 INF] Hello, world!

The sink will colorize output by default:

Themes can be specified when configuring the sink:

.WriteTo.RichTextBox(MyRichTextBox,theme:RichTextBoxConsoleTheme.Grayscale)

The following built-in themes are available at this time:

Adding a new theme is straightforward; examples can be found in theRichTextBoxConsoleThemes class.

The format of events to the RichTextBox can be modified using theoutputTemplate configuration parameter:

.WriteTo.RichTextBox(MyRichTextBox,outputTemplate:"[{Timestamp:HH:mm:ss} {Level:u3}] {Message:lj}{NewLine}{Exception}")

The default template, shown in the example above, uses built-in properties likeTimestamp andLevel. Properties from events, including those attached usingenrichers, can also appear in the output template.
