Loading Configuration from File - Parsed it to an object about dotnet-env HOT 3 CLOSED

Hey, thanks for asking for help. :) Tbh tho, I'm not sure what you are trying to do here. It looks like you copy-pasted a couple examples directly from the readme (comments included), but did not read what they do, as the combination you put together does not seem likely to give you the desired result.

Of particular note, the NoEnvVars() config option is for loading a .env without modifying env vars, which sounds like is the opposite of what you want.

I recommend you read the readme for the options you have chosen and then explain your intent with them, if my comment above does not already resolve your ask.

Not sure which type of project you use, but anyway you shouldn't add IConfiguration manually as Singleton.

As an example from net7.0-Project just add the following in your Program.cs:

builder.Host.ConfigureAppConfiguration(configurationBuilder => configurationBuilder.AddDotNetEnv(...));

Adding the IConfiguration manually will have no effect because there is a default IConfiguration-Service provided by the baseFramework, which will be used instead of the manually added one. (the default one gets added first and first one "wins")

Your second sample seems like you want to have a separate configuration instead of "extending" the default one.
In general I would recommend to use a separate section in the default configuration instead of creating your own configuration.

If you still want to have your own confuguration you may add an additional interface, something like

interface IVeneliteConfiguration : IConfiguration { }

and add the singleton manually but for this new interface; but as I said, I would not reccomend that.

Instead, add VeneliteConfiguration__ in front of your Env-Vars, add it to the default config (as I described at first), and to bind it navigate to the section first and bin it then:

var appSettings = new VeneliteConfiguration();
Configuration.GetSection("VeneliteConfiguration").Bind(appSettings);

You can replace that with a oneliner too (this will create the objtect and bind it exactly as above):

var appSettings = Configuration.GetSection("VeneliteConfiguration").Get<VeneliteConfiguration>();

This way you are able to split your config in multiple parts too, no need for a single huge config-object holding everything.

Closing due to lack of clarification.
