How do I access Configuration in any class in ASP.NET Core?

Question

I have gone through configuration documentation on ASP.NET core. Documentation says you can access configuration from anywhere in the application.

Below is Startup.c

Answer 1

I know this is old but given the IOptions patterns is relatively simple to implement:

1. Class with public get/set properties that match the settings in the configuration

   public class ApplicationSettings
   {
       public string UrlBasePath { get; set; }
   }
   

2. register your settings

   public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
   {
    ...
    services.Configure(Configuration.GetSection("ApplicationSettings"));
   ...
   }
   

3. inject via IOptions

   public class HomeController
   {
      public HomeController(IOptions appSettings)
      { ...
       appSettings.Value.UrlBasePath
       ...
       // or better practice create a readonly private reference
       }
    }
   

I'm not sure why you wouldn't just do this.
