Replace Template Manager

[ns8482e]

I am working on creating a module that will replace the exiting Templates and AdminTemplate feature. I can not replace TemplateManager in services using Dependency as it's not interface based. So Currently I have to manually disable Templates and AdminTemplate before enabling my module.

Is it possible to achieve in C# code that when user enables my module, it should disable other modules like Templates and AdminTemplate?

Thank You

From your startup.cs class of your module you can unregister a service simply.

services.AddScoped<IService>();

var serviceDescriptor = services.FirstOrDefault(descriptor => descriptor.ServiceType == typeof(IService));
services.Remove(serviceDescriptor);

Though you must make sure that your module is registered after the Templates and AdminTemplates ones.

If you look at the StartupBase class you will see ConfigureOrder which can be set like this :

public override int ConfigureOrder => 2000;

The higher the value ; the later it gets registered.

My first try was that - to have my module has dependency on OrchardCore.Templates and OrchardCore.AdminTemplates and then I could replace AdminTemplatesManager but it is services.AddScoped<AdminTemplatesManager>(); added as concrete dependency, I can't remove it from my module without adding reference to OrchardCore.Templates module.

Is it okay to have one module to have reference to another module?
