.NET Core console apps will load values from usersecrets.json, so we should offer the "Manage User Secrets" context menu item on the project just like ASP.NET Core projects
This would a web feature, no?
We already supports it, I filed this ticket in response to a customer asking why we didn't show it for Console apps because it works for console apps. He is currently working around it, but it's reasonable to ask that it be there if it's supported
As in - whomever owns this feature needs to opt into our project type.
Ah, that would be @BillHiebert
@davkean it should be in reverse order actually: we could make feature independent on project system and be tied to capability and core project system should add capability to their targets.
This work is blocked on Web making this feature project-system independent. Is that work schedule for 15.8 @abpiskunov or @BillHiebert, if not let's move this out of 15.8.
Any updates on this? Our team could really use this feature.
Any update guys? I just discovered this and it's a pain.
This will light up in 16.1 by adding a package reference to Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration.UserSecrets. Note that it requires the Web workload to be installed in VS.
This has been done and will install the package if not installed.
