Logging plugins to file, and getting hitInfo amount?

1. How can I record logs from my plugin to a separate file? For example to logs/logDamage.txt
2. How can I learn the amount of inflicted damage from HitInfo? How much HP there was and how much it became?

 

hit info out:

Code:

public class HitInfo
{
    public bool CanGather;
    public DamageTypeList damageTypes;
    public bool DidGather;
    public bool DidHit;
    public bool DoHitEffects;
    public uint HitBone;
    public BaseEntity HitEntity;
    public uint HitMaterial;
    public Vector3 HitNormalLocal;
    public Vector3 HitNormalWorld;
    public uint HitPart;
    public Vector3 HitPositionLocal;
    public Vector3 HitPositionWorld;
    public Vector3 HitVelocity;
    public BaseEntity Initiator;
    public bool IsPredicting;
    public PhysicMaterial material;
    public Vector3 PointEnd;
    public Vector3 PointStart;
    public Connection Predicted;
    public int ProjectileID;
    public AttackEntity Weapon;
    public BaseEntity WeaponPrefab;    public HitInfo();
    public HitInfo(BaseEntity attacker, DamageType type, float damageAmount, Vector3 vhitPosition);    public Vector3 attackNormal { get; }
    public Translate.Phrase boneName { get; }
    public bool hasDamage { get; }
    public bool isHeadshot { get; }    public void LoadFromAttack(Attack attack, bool serverSide);
}

And do you have example logging in plugin ?

 

I haven't tried it but I'm sure you can use the basic .NET file functions to write to a file.. Look at System.IO.File... Might have access issues though I don't know what kind of privileges plugins run as, they might be sandboxed I have no idea.

 

Use: ConVar.Server.Log("Oxide/Logs/logDamage.txt", "LogLine");

 

Thanks a lot! And could you please tell me how to change the log's data format from 12 hour clock to 24 hour clock? And how do I get the info about the amount of damage received from HitInfo?

 

var now = DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyyMMdd");
ConVar.Server.Log("logs/logDamage_" + now + ".txt", msg);

filename: logDamage_20150702.txt
