How to set the Metadata field using the Splunk .Net logging library HttpEventCollectorSender?

[sfortier99]

I'm using the Splunk .Net logging library on Github to interface to the Splunk HTTP Event Collector.

My question is, how to set the Metadata field using the following example:

        var ecSender = new HttpEventCollectorSender(new Uri("https://localhost:8088"),
            "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA",
            how to set this Metadata field - I want it to be source="AppA",
            HttpEventCollectorSender.SendMode.Sequential,
            0,
            0,
            0,
            middleware.Plugin
        );

Thanks.

Before invoking this HttpEventCollectorSender constructor, create an object of type HttpEventCollectorEventInfo and set it's Metadata property. Details of HttpEventCollectorEventInfo class here.

https://github.com/splunk/splunk-library-dotnetlogging/blob/3ca85b1e51082d8c0dfe9815c1006e252656efae...

The Metadata is a nested class within HttpEventCollectorEventInfo class with following attributes

            public string Index { get; private set; }
            public string Source { get; private set; }
            public string SourceType { get; private set; }
            public string Host { get; private set; }
