'How to get AppSetting values in startup by using services in asp.net core?
I want to get value of appsetting inside StartUp and also using services for saving them.
I create a static IServiceCollection method for AddTransient my custom service.
I define a readonly variable for keep the appsetting values. My problem is that, this service creates new instance for readonly variable, for all calling.how can I prevent this?
and I have a question that other extensions like AddOpenIdConnect, how to work with their configs, I mean how to save and use them?
this is startup:
public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services){
...
services.AddMyIntegration(conf =>
{
conf.ConnectionString = Configuration.GetConnectionString("Integration");
conf.AgentApiAddress = Configuration["AgentApiAddress"];
});
}
....
public static class MyExtension
{
public static IServiceCollection AddMyIntegration(this IServiceCollection services, Action<MyConstantsProvider> myConstantsProvider)
{
services.AddTransient((t) =>
{
return new MyService(myConstantsProvider);
});
return services;
}
}
this is my service:
public class MyService
{
public readonly MyConstantsProvider Provider;
public MyService(Action<MyConstantsProvider> configure)
{
Provider = new MyConstantsProvider();
configure(Provider);
}
}
public class MyConstantsProvider
{
public string ConnectionString { get; set; }
public string AgentApiAddress { get; set; }
}
Update my question:
Finally I fixed my issue by add MyConstantsProvider as singletone instead of MyService so this creates new instance of variable at the first time in extension class:
public static class MyExtension
{
public static IServiceCollection AddMyIntegration(this IServiceCollection services, Action<MyConstantsProvider> myConstantsProvider)
{
var provider = new MyConstantsProvider();
myConstantsProvider(provider);
services.AddSingleton(provider);
services.AddTransient<MyService>();
return services;
}
}
this is MyService class:
public class MyService
{
public readonly MyConstantsProvider Provider;
public MyService(MyConstantsProvider provider)
{
Provider = provider;
}
}

I wonder why we make it so complicated ? I just saw we're trying to read appsettings later in the application somewhere, and for this, the framework have default implementation to back us up.
Our app settings might look like
{
"Catalog": {
"ConnectionString": "SomeConnection",
"AgentApiAddress": "http://somewhere.dev"
}
}
Then our class could be
public class MySetting
{
public string ConnectionString { get; set; }
public string AgentApiAddress{ get; set; }
}
Config register it in startup (or somewhere we like in .net 6)
services.Configure<MySetting>(configuration.GetSection("Catalog"));
Retrive it later in the app via DI
public class SomeService
{
private readonly MySetting _setting;
public SomeService(IOptions<MySetting> config)
{
_setting = config.Value;
}
}
For setting that can be change dynamically, take a look at IOptionsMonitor
Or that might be some special case that I miss ?
