Log blocks application with some timeout when Sentry dns is not available.

Log blocks application with some timeout when Sentry dns is not available.
I see 2 solutions of problem:

• The easiest - to install package https://github.com/serilog/serilog-sinks-async and use .WriteTo.Async(a => a.Sentry(sinkOptions.Dns)); syntax + do not forget to call Log.CloseAndFlush(); or .Dispose()
• Change Sink implementation, for example something like PeriodicBatchingSink

to simulate timeout you can add some invalid port to dns string, like [email protected]:81/id

So is the current suggestion for people is use the serilog-sinks-async with this Sentry sink?

Yes, I personally use the approach with serilog-sinks-async.
I don't think this feature will be implemented since there is an official library now, this repository will be eventually archived when they release stable support for MVC5.
getsentry/sentry-dotnet#168

Ah - so this repo is not the official one?

[olsh]

Yes, this is a non-official library, here is the official one.
