    Hi. I found that latest Unity Transport package depends on "com.unity.logging" which seems to be Unity's official logging library.

    I used NLog for my project for years, but if com.unity.logging will be more Unity friendly, I want to replace my logging to it. But there is no information/forum for it.

    Any information for that?

    Thanks.

    Hello! Documentation about the logging package itself is available here. There's no documentation about the integration of logging in transport, because there is not really anything to document (no knobs to tune or anything; we just use the default logger if the package is installed).

    @TreyK-47 Thanks for reply. Is it safe to use com.unity.logging as main logging library for user project? or is it only internal library for Unity?

    This package looks to be heavily inspired by Serilog which is nice to see, I hope it's going to be supported for external developers and not just as an internal Unity package :D

    Yeah, it is not an internal one - feel free to use it

    I can't find any dedicated forum for this package. so I post my question to this thread:

    1. Can I hook logging event by my own event method? (equivalent to Application.logMessageReceived. I think CustomSink can be used for this purpose, right?)
    2. Can I get Unity's internal log (like not handled exception log, shader error or any other internal log message without C# stacktrace) by using this? (Application.logMessageReceived can handle all of Unity's internal log)
