Answer 1

Above solution doesnt helped me to load config file based on enviroment settings. So here is my solution AWS ElasticBeansTalk "hack"

    public Startup(IHostingEnvironment env)
    {
        var builder = new ConfigurationBuilder()
            .SetBasePath(env.ContentRootPath)
            .AddJsonFile("appsettings.json", optional: false, reloadOnChange: true)
            .AddJsonFile($"appsettings.{GetEnvVariableAWSBeansTalkHack(env)}.json", optional: true)
            .AddEnvironmentVariables();

        Configuration = builder.Build();
    }

    private static string GetEnvVariableAWSBeansTalkHack(IHostingEnvironment env)
    {
        var config = new ConfigurationBuilder()
           .AddJsonFile(@"C:\Program Files\Amazon\ElasticBeanstalk\config\containerconfiguration", optional: true, reloadOnChange: true).Build();

        Dictionary dict = new Dictionary();
        foreach (IConfigurationSection pair in config.GetSection("iis:env").GetChildren())
        {
            string[] keypair = pair.Value.Split(new[] { '=' }, 2);
            dict.Add(keypair[0], keypair[1]);
        }

        return dict.ContainsKey("ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT") 
                ? dict["ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT"] 
                : env.EnvironmentName;
    }
