Getting started: your first SquidStd host

Build a minimal SquidStd application: a bootstrapper that loads config, configures logging, and runs the registered services until shutdown.

What you'll build

A console host on top of SquidStdBootstrap (from SquidStd.Services.Core, which brings in SquidStd.Core and SquidStd.Abstractions). It loads its config, wires the default services, and runs until you stop it.

Prerequisites

  • .NET 10 SDK
  • dotnet add package SquidStd.Services.Core

Steps

1. Create the bootstrapper

SquidStdBootstrap.Create takes a SquidStdOptions (config name + root directory) and registers the core services (config, logging, event bus, jobs, timers…) into an owned DryIoc container.

[!code-csharp]

2. Start the services

StartAsync starts every registered ISquidStdService in priority order.

[!code-csharp]

3. Run until shutdown

RunAsync starts (if not already started), waits for cancellation, then stops the services cleanly. Use either StartAsync plus your own loop, or just RunAsync.

[!code-csharp]

Run it

dotnet run --project samples/SquidStd.Samples.GettingStarted

The host starts, logs the service lifecycle, and waits until you press Ctrl+C.

How it works

SquidStdBootstrap is the composition root: it builds the container, registers the core services, loads the config sections, and orchestrates the ISquidStdService lifecycle. Every other SquidStd module plugs into this container through its Add… extension methods.
