Extensions to IConfiguration, such as visualizers to help understand and debug your program configuration.
- Add ConfigurationExtensions.cs and ConfigurationVisualizer.cs to your project.
- Change the namespace to suit your program.
- Call the
.Visualize()or.VisualizeSimple()extension on your configuration:
var builder = Host.CreateApplicationBuilder(args);
var config = app.Services.GetRequiredService<IConfiguration>();
var app = builder.Build();
// Graphical representation using unicode icons
Console.WriteLine(config.Visualize());
// ASCII (no icons) visualization for basic terminals
Console.WriteLine(config.VisualizeSimple());
// Add "excludeVendorSections: false" to show everything (some noise is excluded by default)
Console.WriteLine(config.Visualize(excludeVendorSections: false));
// Add "excludeVendorSections: false" to show everything (some noise is excluded by default)
Console.WriteLine(config.Visualize(excludeVendorSections: false));
// Ignore keys starting with specific strings (overrides default ignores)
var ignorePaths = new List<string> { "ConnectionStrings", "contentRoot" };
Console.WriteLine(config.Visualize(ignorePaths));
