Ocelot with multiple Configuration files and Environments

Question

Is there any way to use Ocelot with multiple Configuration files and environments like ocelot.service1.Development.json?

Unfortunately the documentation seems to be outdated and also it doesn't handle my specific request. I saw that it is able to have multiple files that will be merged Documentation:

ocelot.service1.json
ocelot.service2.json

//Program.cs
return WebHost.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)
    .ConfigureAppConfiguration((host, config) => {
        config
            .AddOcelot(host.HostingEnvironment)
            .AddEnvironmentVariables();
    })
    .UseStartup<Startup>();
}

It works but doesn't meet my requirements.

The documentation also describes following setup Documentation:

ocelot.Development.json
ocelot.Staging.json

//Program.cs
return WebHost.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)
    .ConfigureAppConfiguration((host, config) => {
        config
            .AddJsonFile("ocelot.{host.HostingEnvironment.EnvironmentName}.json", true, true)
            .AddEnvironmentVariables();
    })
    .UseStartup<Startup>();
}

But this solution also doesn't meet my requirements.

Is there any way how I can combine both ways?

Yes, it is possible, but what is your requirements? Show us what files you have — Roman Marusyk, Jan 31 '20 at 08:57
I guess I found another solution that fits to my needs. I excluded the config file from project and put it directly on the server. Due to the high number of ReRoutes I wanted to split them into several files. Each of that files should be environment specific. — SNO, Jan 31 '20 at 09:18

I've come up with a solution:

I edited the extension method .AddOcelot(folder, env). I've added a new parameter appNames which is an array of the names in the files to read from appName.ocelot.Dev.json to find the files.

Can you edit your post to paste code as _text_? You can then _format_ it as code. This will make it easier for people to read and reference. We like to avoid _screenshots_ of code on Stack Overflow. Thank you in advance. – Jeremy Caney Oct 04 '21 at 00:57
