Welcome to StructureMap, the oldest Inversion of Control container for .Net.

Getting StructureMap

StructureMap is available via NuGet:

Install-Package StructureMap

If you want to fix a bug or just want to tinker with an idea, we love receiving pull requests!

Building the Source

As of StructureMap 4.3, the codebase uses the new Dotnet CLI to build and run tests. Paket is no longer used to resolve nuget dependencies.

1. Clone the repository: git clone git://github.com/structuremap/structuremap.git
2. (Optional) From the command line, dotnet test src/StructureMap.Testing
3. Open the solution at src/StructureMap.sln and go to town!

Note:

The StructureMap team uses Rake internally and on the CI server, but Rake is no longer necessary in any way for developing with the StructureMap codebase.

Please post any questions or bugs to the StructureMap Users mailing list.

The latest documentation is available at http://structuremap.github.io.

Thanks for trying StructureMap.

Documentation Authoring

StructureMap uses the StorytellerDocGen tool to author and publish the documentation website.

The documentation is just markdown files in the documentation folder under the root. Code samples can be pulled from anywhere within the StructureMap codebase. The actual web content is published manually to the structuremap.github.com repository.

To run the documentation website locally, from the command line at the root of the StructureMap repository, either:

1. rake docs - If you're comfortable with Rake
2. dotnet restore && dotnet stdocs run - do note that this will default to the version being 1.0, but the correct version will be applied when it's actually published
