ASP.NET Core MVC Sample

This sample contains 2 projects which demonstrate a simple plugin scenario.

'MvcWebApp' is an ASP.NET Core application which scans for a 'plugins' folder in its base directory and attempts to load any plugins it finds
'MvcAppPlugin1' which implements MVC controllers.

Normally, an ASP.NET Core MVC application must have a direct dependency on any assemblies which provide controllers. However, as this sample demonstrates, an MVC application can load controllers from a list of assemblies which is not known ahead of time when the host app is built.

Running the sample

Open a command line to this folder and run:

dotnet restore
dotnet run --project MvcApp/

Then open http://localhost:5000
