Suppress SQL Queries logging in Entity Framework core

Question

I have a console .net core app that uses entity framework core. The app uses logging framework to write to file and console:

 serviceProvider = new ServiceCollection()
        .AddLogging()
        .AddDbContext<DataStoreContext>(options =>
            options.UseSqlServer(Configuration.GetConnectionString("DefaultConnection")))
        .BuildServiceProvider();

    //configure console logging
    serviceProvider.GetService<ILoggerFactory>()
        .AddConsole(LogLevel.Debug)
        .AddSerilog();

    Log.Logger = new LoggerConfiguration()
        .MinimumLevel.Information()
        .WriteTo.RollingFile(Path.Combine(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory(), "logs/vcibot-{Date}.txt"))
        .WriteTo.RollingFile(Path.Combine(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory(), "logs/vcibot-errors-{Date}.txt"), LogEventLevel.Error)
        .CreateLogger();

    logger = serviceProvider.GetService<ILoggerFactory>()
        .CreateLogger<Program>();

Min Level for file output is set to Information. But with this setup output also contains SQL queries, here is the example:

2017-02-06 10:31:38.282 -08:00 [Information] Executed DbCommand (0ms) [Parameters=[], CommandType='Text', CommandTimeout='30'] SELECT [f].[BuildIdentifier], [f].[Branch], [f].[BuildDate], [f].[StaticAssetSizeInKb] FROM [FileSizesHistoryEntries] AS [f]

Is there a way to disable the SQL queries logging (log them only in Debug log level)

Answer 1

Don't know if this is still an active question, but this is my solution, override the minimum level for "Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Database.Command"

 Log.Logger = new LoggerConfiguration()
            .MinimumLevel.ControlledBy(loggingLevelSwitch)
            .MinimumLevel.Override("Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Database.Command", Serilog.Events.LogEventLevel.Warning)
            .Enrich.WithProperty("app", environment.ApplicationName)
            .Enrich.FromLogContext()
            .WriteTo.RollingFile($"./Logs/{environment.ApplicationName}")
            .CreateLogger();

you can also have this on the appconfig.json

"Serilog": {
    "Using": [ "Serilog.Sinks.Console" ],
    "MinimumLevel": {
      "Default": "Verbose",
      "Override": {
        "Microsoft": "Warning",
        "Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Database.Command": "Warning"
      }
    },
    "WriteTo": [
      {
        "Name": "Console",
        "Args": {
          "outputTemplate": "[{Timestamp:u}] [{Level:u3}] {SourceContext} {Message:lj}{NewLine}{Exception}"
        }
      },
    ],
    "Enrich": [ "FromLogContext", "WithExceptionDetails" ]
  }
