Hangfire in ASP.NET Core RC2

question
1

While upgrading our solution to RC2 (a Must have for our next release) we run against the following errors.
It was working without issues in RC1

error: Package Hangfire.Dashboard.Authorization 2.1.0 is not compatible with netcoreapp1.0 (.NETCoreApp,Version=v1.0). Package Hangfire.Dashboard.Authorization 2.1.0 supports: net45 (.NETFramework,Version=v4.5)

error: Package Hangfire.Core 1.6.0-beta2 is not compatible with netcoreapp1.0 (.NETCoreApp,Version=v1.0). Package Hangfire.Core 1.6.0-beta2 supports: net45 (.NETFramework,Version=v4.5)

error: Package Hangfire.SqlServer 1.6.0-beta2 is not compatible with netcoreapp1.0 (.NETCoreApp,Version=v1.0). Package Hangfire.SqlServer 1.6.0-beta2 supports: net45 (.NETFramework,Version=v4.5)

Any idea or workaround ?

For now it seems the workaround I just figured out is not to use netcoreapp1.0 as a framework, but instead use dnx451 or dnx46. I’ll take a deeper dive if this does not work. I forked the project on github and looked at the dnx branch, but that branch doesn’t compile anymore on RC2 and is over 1 year old?

I too had to drop dnxcore50 on it and use dnx46, seems to be working alright.

I also needed to use something such as suggested here: https://www.illucit.com/blog/2016/04/hangfire-and-asp-net-5/#more-352 for controlling authorization (I’m using roles though).

If you happen to figure out how to leverage IoC for an Activator that depends on a DbContext, I’ld love to see it… I cannot get that working yet.

Is anyone working on getting this to work with .NET Core RC2 targeting the cross-platform libraries?
