how to start

using AUR.NETCore.Mvc.PluginsManager;

Constructors

Base

PluginsManager PM = new PluginsManager<interfaces.IPluginBase>("absolutePath of plugin");

Example

const string PluginFolder = "Plugins";
static PluginsManager<interfaces.IPluginBase> _Plugins;
public static PluginsManager<interfaces.IPluginBase> Plugins { get { if (_Plugins == null) _Plugins = new PluginsManager<interfaces.IPluginBase>(Path.Combine(AppContext.BaseDirectory, PluginFolder)); return _Plugins; } }

Load

public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
    //...
    services.AddMvc().SetCompatibilityVersion(CompatibilityVersion.Version_2_1);
    Plugins.Load(services); // last row
}

Configure

public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IHostingEnvironment env)
{
   //....
    Plugins.Configure(app, env);    // before default route

    app.UseMvc(routes =>
    {
        routes.MapRoute(
            name: "default",
            template: "{controller=Home}/{action=Index}/{id?}");

    });
}

types of configuration

public enum ViewsTypeResouces
{
    Assembly,
    Embedded,
    None
}
public enum ControllerTypeResouces
{
    Assembly,
    None
}

here is an example of a plugin

using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Hosting;
using AUR.NETCore.Mvc.PluginsManager.interfaces;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Builder;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;

namespace CompiledView_WithoutControllers
{
    internal class CompiledView_WithoutControllers : IPluginBase
    {
        public string Name { get => "CompiledView_WithoutControllers"; }
        public ViewsTypeResouces ViewsTypeResouces { get => ViewsTypeResouces.Assembly; }
        public ControllerTypeResouces ControllerTypeResouces { get => ControllerTypeResouces.None; }

        public void PluginConfigure(IApplicationBuilder app, IHostingEnvironment env)
        {
            //
        }

        public void PluginConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
        {
            //
        }
    }
}

here is an example of a costum plugin

common interface between project and plugin

public interface CostumPlugin : IPluginBase
{
    void Do();
    string version { get; }
}

main project inizialize

const string PluginFolder = "Plugins";
static PluginsManager<CostumPlugin> _Plugins;
public static PluginsManager<CostumPlugin> Plugins { get { if (_Plugins == null) _Plugins = new PluginsManager<CostumPlugin>(Path.Combine(AppContext.BaseDirectory, PluginFolder)); return _Plugins; } }

here is an example of a plugin

using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Hosting;
using AUR.NETCore.Mvc.PluginsManager.interfaces;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Builder;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;

namespace CompiledView_WithoutControllers
{
    internal class CompiledView_WithoutControllers : CostumPlugin
    {
        public string Name { get => "CompiledView_WithoutControllers"; }
        public string version { get => "v0.1.23"; }
        public ViewsTypeResouces ViewsTypeResouces { get => ViewsTypeResouces.Assembly; }
        public ControllerTypeResouces ControllerTypeResouces { get => ControllerTypeResouces.None; }

        public void PluginConfigure(IApplicationBuilder app, IHostingEnvironment env)
        {
            //
        }

        public void PluginConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
        {
            //
        }
        public void Do()
        {
            // my do
