in asp.net 5 is it possible to store and read custom files in approot instead of wwwroot?

Question

when you deploy an asp.net5/mvc6 app there is the wwwroot folder where web assets like css, js, images belong, and there is approot folder where packages and source code belong.

Answer 1

Yes, it is possible. Just get the path to your app folder and the pass it to configuration or whoever else needs it:

public class Startup
{
    public Startup(IHostingEnvironment env, IApplicationEnvironment appEnv)
    {
        var wwwrootRoot = env.WebRootPath;
        var appRoot = appEnv.ApplicationBasePath;
