Overview of this book

The ability to develop web applications that are highly efficient but also easy to maintain has become imperative to many businesses. ASP.NET Core 2.0 is an open source framework from Microsoft, which makes it easy to build cross-platform web applications that are modern and dynamic. This book will take you through all of the essential concepts in ASP.NET Core 2.0, so you can learn how to build powerful web applications. The book starts with a brief introduction to the ASP.NET Core framework and the improvements made in the latest release, ASP.NET Core 2.0. You will then build, test, and debug your first web application very quickly. Once you understand the basic structure of ASP.NET Core 2.0 web applications, you'll dive deeper into more complex concepts and scenarios. Moving on, we'll explain how to take advantage of widely used frameworks such as Model View Controller and Entity Framework Core 2 and you'll learn how to secure your applications. Finally, we'll show you how to deploy and monitor your applications using Azure, AWS, and Docker. After reading the book, you'll be able to develop efficient and robust web applications in ASP.NET Core 2.0 that have high levels of customer satisfaction and adoption.

Preface

Implementing advanced dependency injection concepts


In the previous chapter, you saw how dependency injection (DI) works and how to use the constructor injection method. But, if you need to inject many instances during runtime, this method can be quite cumbersome and can make it complicated to understand and maintain your code.

Therefore, you can use a more advanced technique of DI called method injection. This allows accessing instances directly from within your code.

In the following example, you are going to add a new service for handling game invitations and update the Tic-Tac-Toe application for being able to send emails for contacting other users to join a game, while using method injection:

  1. Add a new service called GameInvitationService in the Services folder for managing game invitations (adding, updating, removing, and more):
        public class GameInvitationService 
        { 
          private static ConcurrentBag<GameInvitationModel> 
           _gameInvitations; 
      ...
