FrozensoftSoftware.Alerts 1.0.6

Frozensoft Software Alerts is a package that allows you to easily send alerts to users in your ASP.NET Core project. You can either use bootstrap or make your own classes for the Alerts.

These Instructions are only for .NET Core 5.0 and (.NET Core 3.1)

Installation:

1. install the package from nuget: https://www.nuget.org/packages/FrozensoftSoftware.Alerts/
2. Setup your Startup.cs file: Inside of your ConfigureServices add this:

    services.AddMvc().AddRazorRuntimeCompilation();
    services.Configure<MvcRazorRuntimeCompilationOptions>(options =>
    {
         options.FileProviders.Add(new EmbeddedFileProvider(
             typeof(FrozensoftSoftware.Alerts.ViewComponents.Alerts.AlertsViewComponent).Assembly));
     });
   
     // Registers the Alert Service
     services.AddScoped<IAlertService, AlertService>();
   

3. If you have a _ViewImports.cshtml file add this to it:

   @addTagHelper *, FrozensoftSoftware.Alerts
   

4. Add the ViewComponent, this can be done where ever you want it, in my instance I have put it inside of the _Layout.cshtml file:

   <vc:alerts></vc:alerts>
   

5. Have fun and Enjoy 😃
