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 the IHostedService 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.
