Installation

CannoliKit

Release builds of CannoliKit can be added to your project via NuGet:

• CannoliKit

Microsoft Entity Framework Core (EF Core)

CannoliKit uses EF Core to support its various features.

You will need to add the following packages to your project:

• Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore
• Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools

EF Core needs a database provider. You may choose your own. For many projects, SQLite is a great fit:

• Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Sqlite

Microsoft Dependency Injection (DI)

CannoliKit is designed to use DI.

You will need to add the following packages to your project:

• Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection
• Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.Abstractions

Logging

CannoliKit requires you add an ILogger service to your DI service container. If you want to log to the console, use:

• Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.Console

Next Steps

Once you have added packages to your project, you are ready to Get Started. Or, if you are an experienced developer and want a quick summary, jump to TL;DR.
