Support dot net core

[alastairtree]

Just published a final beta (3). Assuming no-one has any issues I can release in a few days. Also need to finish updating the docs to version 2.0. For those upgrading from version 0.7 I have added some upgrade docs at https://github.com/alastairtree/LazyCache/wiki/upgrade-to-2

[alastairtree]

I have started work on this, and the basics are now working. Decided to target netstandard 2 and there are a number of breaking changes so this will be a major bump to version 2.0. Feel free to check out https://github.com/alastairtree/LazyCache/tree/feat/netcore2 if you are keen. Any feedback is welcome, and let me know if you think the breaking changes are unreasonable - I hope they should be very quick to fix. If you are really keen the latests nupkg is available at https://ci.appveyor.com/project/alastairtree/lazycache/build/artifacts but I think it still needs some work so not a proper release yet.

Any news on this?

Well done @alastairtree , hope my little contribution helped, we are converting over to use your "official" LazyCache in our core library (replacing my temp one).

Final beta (3) was published in May (to be released in a days). Is there any reason that release didn't happen?

[bbrandt]

The library to depend on now seems to be Microsoft.Extensions.Caching.Memory which is a .NETStandard 1.3 and .NETFramework 4.5.1 library.

[alastairtree]

There is now a beta version of LazyCache 2.0 for netstandard 2 on nuget.org. Feedback most welcome.

dotnet add package LazyCache --version 2.0.0-beta02

In addition there are a set of dependency injection bindings available:

dotnet add package LazyCache.AspNetCore --version 2.0.0-beta02

[alastairtree]

Version 2.0.0-beta02 has been released to nuget.org with some minor refactorings and a new GetOrAdd method that allows the cache item factory/lamda define the cache duration/expiry at execution time rather than in advance, see #5 for an example.

It's very nice version, i'm using and it's so much fast.

Thank you for your efforts!

.NET Core and full .NET are likely to be used alongside each-other for years.
Is it practical to support both caching methods?

[artstalker]

What about .net core support? Are you going to release dot net core version of this product?

[Nucs]

+1, netstandard makes it simpler.

[alastairtree]

Agree we want to make this netstandard at this point, and 1.3 would be a good place to aim for. Also worth looking at the memory/distributed options in dotnetcore as these also have nicer APIs than the old .net4 ones. See
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/api/microsoft.extensions.caching.memory
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/api/microsoft.extensions.caching.distributed

Any news?

[matthewacme]

I have a working version that is multi-targeted to net45, net46, and netstandard2.0 see #24

[lookingcloudy]

Great - it looks like the beta version works with .Net Core 2.0.

[TrevorVonSeggern]

Are there any blockers for this issue to get resolved?

btw, great work on this!

[avikenjale]

Any idea by when can LazyCache.AspNetCore 2.0.0 final version release? Due to some reason, I am not allowed to use beta.

[agltestshr]

Would love to know when the final version will be released.
I'm unfortunately not allowed to use the beta version. Thanks!

[alastairtree]

Quick note to say docs are updated, last few tweaks completed and final version 2.0.0 has been released to nuget.org. Sorry it took so long!
