ScaffoldingDesignTimeServices not loaded (duplicate of #31)

Running the latest nuget on a new .net core projet.

Running SDK : PM> dotnet --version 2.1.403

Services class :

namespace EFCoreScaffold { public class ScaffoldingDesignTimeServices : IDesignTimeServices { public void ConfigureDesignTimeServices(IServiceCollection services) { // Generate both context and entitites var options = ReverseEngineerOptions.DbContextAndEntities;

        // Register Handlebars helper
        var myHelper = (helperName: "my-helper", helperFunction: (Action<TextWriter, object, object[]>)MyHbsHelper);

        // Add Handlebars scaffolding templates
        services.AddHandlebarsScaffolding(options);

        // Register Handlebars helper
        services.AddHandlebarsHelpers(myHelper);
    }

    // Sample Handlebars helper

Hello, I can also confirm that the debugger steps in the ScaffoldingDesignTimeServices by attaching the debugger to dotnet executable. Could you give us a hint ? I need handlebars for my migration from ef6 to core. I can debug the issue. It seems like the helper is not detected / invoked, because debugger never step in the helper function. Where does the helpers get resolved, when the handlebar parser see finds a custom tag?

Ok so your wrapping method, services.AddHandlebarsHelpers(myHelper) , over HandlebarsDotNet.Handlebars.RegisterHelper , does not register the templates in handlebar.

Adding nuget ref to handlebar, and directly add the template, fix the issue. HandlebarsDotNet.Handlebars.RegisterHelper("my-helper", MyHbsHelper);

Why do you make additionnal plumbing over the native call? Only plus I see is to avoid adding references to handlerbar in target projects.

Anyways, i'm not sure where to fix this, but now you know the problem.
