About
Contains abstractions to host user code in an application by encapsulating an application's resources and lifetime functionality including:
- Dependency injection (DI).
- Logging.
- Configuration.
- Starting, stopping and obtaining notifications.
This package is also used to wire up specific application models like ASP.NET Core that are built on top of hosting.
Key Features
- Provides the
BackgroundService
base class and theIHostedService
interface for implementing worker services. - Provides interfaces used to configure and start\stop a host.
- Provides types to obtain environment settings such as an application name and paths.
How to Use
See the Conceptual documentation below for using BackgroundService
and IHostedService
to host worker services.
Main Types
The main types provided by this library are:
Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting.BackgroundService
Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting.IHostBuilder
Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting.IHostedService
