XrmEmulator.Aspire.Hosting.Dataverse

.NET Aspire hosting integration for XrmEmulator, a local Dataverse emulator powered by XrmMockup.

Usage

Add the package to your Aspire AppHost project:

dotnet add package XrmEmulator.Aspire.Hosting.Dataverse

Container resource

Run XrmEmulator as a container from the GitHub Container Registry:

var builder = DistributedApplication.CreateBuilder(args);

var emulator = builder.AddXrmEmulatorContainer("dataverse")
    .WithMetadataFolder("../Metadata")
    .WithSnapshotPersistence();

builder.Build().Run();

Project resource

Reference the XrmEmulator project directly in your AppHost:

var emulator = builder.AddProject<Projects.XrmEmulator>("dataverse")
    .WithSnapshotPersistence();

Extension methods

Method Description
AddXrmEmulatorContainer(name, tag) Add the emulator as a container resource
WithMetadataFolder(path) Bind mount a local metadata directory into the container
WithSnapshotPersistence(interval, dataPath) Enable save/restore of database state across restarts
WithoutSnapshotPersistence() Explicitly disable snapshots (useful for tests)
WithLicenseKey(key) Configure a license key via environment variable
WithLicenseFile(path) Configure a license key from a .lic file
DisableIPv6() Avoid slow localhost connections on Windows

Metadata

Entity metadata files are required for the emulator to function. Use the XrmEmulator.MetadataSync CLI tool to export metadata from a Dataverse environment:

dnx XrmEmulator.MetadataSync

This will interactively guide you through authenticating with your Microsoft tenant, selecting a Dataverse environment, and choosing which entities to sync. The exported metadata files can then be mounted into the emulator using WithMetadataFolder.
