How to integrate Hangfire Source Code into existing Visual Studios Project?

Because I’d like to debug/single step thru HangFire API methods. I’ve successfully done so, and have a got a general idea. Here’s how to do it:

  1. Download Hangfire Source Code
  2. Importing Hangfire Source Code to Existing Solution:
    a. In Existing Solution: Right Click on Solution “”
    b. Add > “Existing Project”
    c. Browse to root folder in Hangfire: “GitHub/Hangfire”
    d. Click on the File type drop-down menu and select: “Solution Files”
    e. Double-click “Hangfire.sln”
  3. Build your VS Solution
  4. Restoring Missing References from imported Hangfire Projects:
    a. Right-click on your Solution > Enable NuGet Package Restore.
    b. Build
    c. For any remaining “The type or namespace name ‘<>’ could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)”
    Install these Packages Manually
  5. Add Hangfire Source References to Existing Project:
    a. Open the drop-down menu in your existing project
    b. Right Click on “References” folder > “Add Reference…”
    c. From “Solution/ Projects”: Select all Hangfire Projects > Ok
