IServicesConfigurator not found

Question

My Sitecore web application is a .Net Framework 4.8 Web application. I am trying to integrate Sitecore DI container. I have added Nuget packages for Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection, Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.Abstraction and Sitecore.DependencyInjection.

I have written ServicesConfigurator class looking at example here. For some reason, IServicesConfigurator is not getting resolved. Please refer to the attached image.

Can anyone please help? Is it because I am using .Net Framework 4.8 Web application? I dont think so.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

It's working fine with.Net Framework 4.8 Web application. It's a reference issue with dlls/version of dll. I think You need to add a Nuget package reference of Sitecore.Kernel as per your Sitecore version into the project. IServicesConfigurator interface is a part of Sitecore.DependencyInjection namespace and part of Sitecore.Kernel.Dll.It would install relative dependencies of DI DLLs like below.

You can remove all the references you added and add Sitecore.Kernel from the Nuget package and create ServicesConfigurator class.

using Sitecore.DependencyInjection;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;

namespace XX.Website
{
    public class ServicesConfigurator : IServicesConfigurator
    {
        public void Configure(IServiceCollection serviceCollection)
        {
            //Code here
        }
    }
}

Sitecore.Kernel DLL reference is mandatory to make use of DLL Sitecore.DependencyInjection.

Make sure you have added a compatible reference of DLL Sitecore.Kernel.

I am using Sitecore DI with version V 10.2 and the DI is working as expected. The DLL version details are given below,

Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection, Version=3.1.14.0

Sitecore.Kernel, Version=17.0.0.0

.Net Framework, Version=4.8
