I have an ASP.NET Core project that I'm developing and I'm making use of LiteDB as a database solution. In order to instantiate my database I need to provide a URI so that the program knows where to create the database.
Usually I'd do something like System.Environment.CurrentDirectory()
to find the current directory I'm in and modify that, however the result of this command turns out to be C:\\program files\\IIS Express
or something similar. Basically the current directory points to the location of IIS Express.
Instead I want to get the root of my ASP.NET project, the location that contains my controllers folder, appsettings.json, bin and obj folders.
What command do I need to use to get a string representing this location? I don't want to use a hard coded string for obvious reasons.
If you don't have access to DI you could try:
Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location
If you have access to DI, try this:
Inject the IHostingEnvironment
and call environment.ContentRootPath

You may be better served by using a dedicated location (such as a network share) rather than the folder that contains the executable code. Having user data mixed into deployed code comes with a lot of headaches:
Of course, this all assumes that the production environment is configured differently from developers' local machines.
