Episerver Find and .Net Core 2

Vote:
 

Hello. 

I'd like to use the EpiServer Find Client library in an ASP.Net Core 2.0 Web API.

https://nuget.episerver.com/en/OtherPages/Package/?packageId=EPiServer.Find

When I build the project, I get the following warning:

Package 'EPiServer.Find 12.7.1' was restored using '.NETFramework,Version=v4.6.1' instead of the project target framework '.NETCoreApp,Version=v2.0'. This package may not be fully compatible with your project.

Some questions...

  1. Will a .Net Core 2 compatible version be released?
  2. If not, what's the best way to work around this issue?

Thanks

Howard

Cannot answer on 1., but one of the way for the 2. would be to host Find libraries in project running under frameowrk and expose API as public endpoints. Overkill, but possible :)

I would expect .NET core 2 compatible Find to happen. But 1. I'm not the decision maker. 2. Find team might have other priority. So don't take that as a promise.

I will however raise the question to the PM of Find.

I talked with the PM briefly and he is interested in the idea. To actually do it, however, is another story and will not happen overnight.

Thanks. Can you give an idea of timescales? Also, do you support making Http requests directly to EpiFind, without using the client?

  1. The PM said it will be considered after all in progress works are done. So there is no fixed timelime yet.
  2. Yes, technically, if you can replace the content of the request. (and deserialize the response to the objects)
