.NET integration

Feature description

An integration with .NET's configuration tooling would be great to see.

Why would it be useful?

There's a lot of .NET projects out there that could benefit from this.

Infisical mostly likely supports .NET in its current form. We just don't have the docs for it yet. We need to test it out, and I will get back to you.

That's definitely possible and .NETs ConfigurationBuilder makes it fairly easy.

public IConfigurationRoot ConfigureConfiguration()
{
    var builder = new ConfigurationBuilder()
        .AddJsonFile("appsettings.json", optional: true, reloadOnChange: true)
        .AddEnvironmentVariables();
    return builder.Build();
}

Oh interesting! This makes sense - I haven't found the time to test it out and write the docs yet (not very familiar with .NET) :(

@jon4hz If you're interested in helping with this, that would be so amazing 🙏 No pressure though!

[jon4hz]

Well I'm no expert on .NET either, I just recently started learning c#. :)
But yeah sure, what would you need for the docs? The snipped I posted should be more or less everything that's needed to parse the environment variables.

[vmatsiiako]

Kinda like this. First step is going to be the same, and then you just need to run the start command and see if environment variables are inserted :)

The frameworks are here.
