Set Environment Keys

While we develop our application, we use the “development” environment. But as soon as we publish our application, it goes to the “production” environment. Development and production environments should have different URLs, ports, connection strings, passwords, and other sensitive information. Therefore, we need to have a separate configuration for each environment and that’s easy to accomplish by using .NET Core-provided mechanisms.

To set which environment our application runs on, we need to set up the ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT environment variable. For example, to run the application in production, we need to set it to the Production value on the machine we do the deployment to. We can set the variable through the command prompt by typing set ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT=Production in Windows or export ASPNET_CORE_ENVIRONMENT=Production in Linux.

How to Monitorize WebApi Performance

Check if you Prometheus and Grafana host containers are running.

• Prometheus
  • Prometheus can collect and store metrics as time-series data, recording information with a timestamp.

http://localhost:9090/metrics

• Grafana
  • Grafana provides you an visualization web application analytics and interactive. It can produce charts, graphs, and alerts for the web when connected to supported data sources.

How to Log WebApi

Check if you ElasticSearch and Kibana host containers are running.

• Kibana

  • Is a data visualization and exploration tool used for log and time-series analytics, application monitoring, and operational intelligence use cases. It offers powerful and easy-to-use features such as histograms, line graphs, pie charts, heat maps, and built-in geospatial support.

• ElasticSearch

  • Elasticsearch is a distributed search and analytics engine and is commonly used for log analytics, full-text search, security intelligence, business analytics, and operational intelligence use cases.
