.NET CORE support?

[PeterOeClausen]

Is the framework supported in .NET CORE? If not, is there a plan to support it later? :-)

I think it is supported in .NET Core.

I'm getting an exception when running Engine.Razor.RunCompile:

System.IO.FileNotFoundException

I've also tried installing the Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc NuGet package.

Do I need to configure RazorEngine somehow?

Pete, you're getting a more generic error message. Can you check in your references if System.Web.Razor is actually listed (without an exclamation mark)? In any case, try (re)installing the package Microsoft.AspNet.Razor which should contain the needed dll.

Did you find a solution for this problem?

[PeterOeClausen]

@GiMihalkow Nope. I ended up using a forked version of RazorEngine, that's names something like "RazorEngine.NetCore", but it had a lot of issues and unsupported features.. Can't recommend it.. Now I'm not working on the project any longer, and hence I don't need it. But I never made it work with RazorEngine.

@didii Tried it didn't work. I don't know if it was just me getting the issue, or if this is a general thing for using NetCore and RazorEngine...

One can check it easily, by creating a new console NetCore solution, download the RazorEngine NuGet package, and try to compile something... I may try it very soon. If it works, I'll comment and close this issue.
