Overview
The library provides a simple set of dotnet objects for authentication, state management and hardware abstraction. We have used it everyday in many project, reusing a code base built on Windows, the dotnet languages and namespace and the Amazon AWS scalable services.
This open source project and documentation was originally intended for our employees, clients, partners and friends. We thank everyone for their contributions over the years and welcome contributions.
The primary use case is online applications, but there is a add-on (extensibility interface) to create websites. Documentation is divided by use cases, and the audience: developers, designers, and content administrators.
For developers who want to:
- Create a new development site on a development workstation. Read Getting Started, Developers
- Create or manage a server - Download the Contensive installation execute and use the command line configuration tool to create and manager an application.
- Add forms and dynamic functionality to websites based on the Contensive Library using Visual Studio - Add the Contensive NuGet package and reference the online API. Read more about how to create an addon.
- Add the Admin Site (Open Source Addon) to any application to let site administrators create and manage content you create for their applications. Install add-ons collections from the command line (cc.exe), upload in the admin site with the addon manager, or download from a library of addons in the addon manager adding addons with the Addon Manager.
- Write Contensive remote methods that respond to endpoints (remote api requests)
To add current references to your Visual Studio project, use Contensive.DbBaseClass NuGet.
The command line server manager tool and supporting utilities are available on clib.io/downloads.
