or dotnet add package SecureStore.Contrib.Configuration

Usage

To load a SecureStore file as part of your config, just load it as part of your normal ConfigurationBuilder setup in the Program class of your .NET Core app.

The simplest possible usage that loads a single SecureStore file called secrets.json with key file secrets.key would be:

public class Program
{
    public static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        BuildWebHost(args).Run();
    }

    public static IWebHost BuildWebHost(string[] args) =>
        WebHost.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)
            .ConfigureAppConfiguration(builder => 
            {
                builder.AddSecureStoreFile("secrets.json", "secrets.key", KeyType.File, optional: false);
            })
            .UseStartup<Startup>()
            .Build();
}

A more complete Program class that loads multiple files (overwriting config values) might look more like the following:

public class Program
{
    public static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        BuildWebHost(args).Run();
    }

    public static IWebHost BuildWebHost(string[] args) =>
        WebHost.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)
            .ConfigureAppConfiguration((context, builder) =>
            {
                var env = context.HostingEnvironment;
                builder
                    .AddJsonFile("appsettings.json", optional: true, reloadOnChange: true)
                    .AddJsonFile($"appsettings.{env.EnvironmentName}.json", optional: true)
                    .AddSecureStoreFile("secrets.json", "secrets.key", KeyType.File, optional: false);
            })
            .UseStartup<Startup>()
            .Build();
}
