YamlConfiguration

YamlConfiguration is a small library to support the YAML format for .NET configuration files, nothing else.

Note Package code it's an adaptation of YAML functionality from a popular (but obsolete) FlexibleConfiguration NuGet package. Unlike FlexibleConfiguration it uses .NET native configuration infrastructure and SharpYaml instead of YamlDotNet to support YAML.

Supported Platforms

• .NET 5 and higher
• .NET Core 2.0 and higher
• .NET Framework 4.6.1 and higher

Getting the Code

• Nuget: install-package YamlConfiguration or dotnet add package YamlConfiguration
• Source code: git clone git@github.com:RedKorshun/YamlConfiguration.git

How to use

Example for console application:

using System; using System.IO; using System.Threading.Tasks; using Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration; using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection; using Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting; namespace YamlConfigurationHowTo { internal sealed class Startup { internal static async Task Main(String[] args) { IHostBuilder hostBuilder = new HostBuilder() .ConfigureAppConfiguration(ConfigureConfiguration) .ConfigureServices(ConfigureServices); await hostBuilder.RunConsoleAsync(); } private static void ConfigureConfiguration(IConfigurationBuilder config) { config .SetBasePath(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory()) .AddYamlFile("appsettings.yaml", optional: false) // <-- Exactly what this package provides ; } private static void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services) { services .AddHostedService<ApplicationManager>() // <-- Your IHostedService implementation // Your dependency injection bindings ; } } }
