Hello! My team is currently creating microservices written in .NET Core. A lot of my teammates don't commit appsettings in their .NET Core microservices, opting instead to simply commit changes to our docker-compose file. This is fine until we need to debug something, and then it becomes painful to manually map the environment variables from the docker-compose file over to appsettings.development.json. I created this to make my life a little bit easier, and hopefully it helps some other folks too!
It's not perfect, and won't support every possible format for docker-compose environment variables (block scalars, for example), which seemed a little overkill for a weekend project.
I'm definitely open to feedback and suggestions! Thanks!
