Access IServiceProvider when using generic IHostBuilder
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
I'm using IHostBuilder in a .NET Core 2.1 console application. Main looks like this:
public static async Task Main(string args)
{
var hostBuilder = new HostBuilder()
.UseServiceProviderFactory(new AutofacServiceProviderFactory())
.ConfigureServices(services =>
{
// Register dependencies
// ...
// Add the hosted service containing the application flow
services.AddHostedService<RoomService>();
});
await hostBuilder.RunConsoleAsync();
}
}
Before, with IWebHostBuilder, I had the Configure() method that let me do this:
public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder applicationBuilder, IHostingEnvironment environment)
{
// Resolve something unrelated to the primary dependency graph
var thingy = applicationBuilder.ApplicationServices.GetRequiredService<Thingy>();
// Register it with the ambient context
applicationBuilder.AddAmbientThingy(options => options.AddSubscriber(thingy));
// Use MVC or whatever
// ...
}
This allowed me to register something ambient (using the Ambient Context pattern), not part of the application's main dependency graph. (As you can see, I still use the container to instantiate it, which is certainly preferable to newing it up manually. We could see it as a secondary, ambient dependency graph.)
With the generic host builder, we never seem to get access to the built IServiceProvider or the IApplicationBuilder. How do I achieve the same registration in this case?

Apparently, instead of calling the RunConsoleAsync() extension, we can split up the simple steps that that method takes, allowing us to do something between building and starting:
await hostBuilder
.UseConsoleLifetime()
.Build()
.AddAmbientThingy(options => options.AddSubscriber(thingy))
.RunAsync();
