A bootstrapper implementation, for the Nancy framework, based on the Unity inversion of control container.
When Nancy detects that the UnityNancyBootstrapper
type is available in the AppDomain of your application, it will assume you want to use it, rather than the default one.
The easiest way to get the latest version of UnityNancyBootstrapper
into your application is to install the Nancy.Bootstrappers.Unity
nuget.
By inheriting from UnityNancyBootstrapper
you will gain access to the IUnityContainer
of the application and request containers and can perform what ever reqistations that your application requires.
public class Bootstrapper : UnityNancyBootstrapper
{
protected override void ApplicationStartup(IUnityContainer container, IPipelines pipelines)
{
// No registrations should be performed in here, however you may
// resolve things that are needed during application startup.
}
protected override void ConfigureApplicationContainer(IUnityContainer existingContainer)
{
// Perform registation that should have an application lifetime
}
protected override void ConfigureRequestContainer(IUnityContainer container, NancyContext context)
{
// Perform registrations that should have a request lifetime
}
protected override void RequestStartup(IUnityContainer container, IPipelines pipelines, NancyContext context)
{
// No registrations should be performed in here, however you may
// resolve things that are needed during request startup.
}
}
You can also override the GetApplicationContainer
method and return a pre-existing container instance, instead of having Nancy create one for you. This is useful if Nancy is co-existing with another application and you want them to share a single container.
protected override IUnityContainer GetApplicationContainer()
{
// Return application container instance
}
If you end up overriding GetApplicationContainer()
, you will have to manually add the EnumerableExtension
to your container so that it is able to resolve IEnumerable<T>
types properly (something that Unity has poor support for).
container.AddNewExtension<EnumerableExtension>();
