For the Dependency Injection framework to resolve IRepository
, it must first be registered with the container. For example, in ConfigureServices
, add the following:
services.AddScoped<IRepository, MemoryRepository>();
For .NET 6+, which uses the new hosting model by default, add the following in Program.cs instead:
builder.Services.AddScoped<IRepository, MemoryRepository>();
AddScoped
is just one example of a service lifetime:
For web applications, a scoped lifetime indicates that services are created once per client request (connection).
See the docs for more information on Dependency Injection in ASP.NET Core.
