Http Request Logging

Albatross.Hosting does not include request logging by default. Use Serilog.AspNetCore's UseSerilogRequestLogging() middleware to opt in.

Override Configure in your Startup class and call UseSerilogRequestLogging() before base.Configure(...):

public class MyStartup : Albatross.Hosting.Startup {
    public MyStartup(IConfiguration configuration) : base(configuration) { }

    public override void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, ProgramSetting programSetting, EnvironmentSetting environmentSetting, ILogger<MyStartup> logger) {
        app.UseSerilogRequestLogging();
        base.Configure(app, programSetting, environmentSetting, logger);
    }
}

Calling it before base.Configure(...) ensures it wraps the full request pipeline. Serilog writes one structured log entry per request, including the HTTP method, path, status code, and elapsed time.
