How to change the solution and the project name in blazor server

adrio fernando 0

Hello, I'm trying to rename the blazor project in the solution, but when I rename project, it doesn't change the namespaces and in the other places in the pages of the project.

Is there any other way I can do this safely without breaking the app?

Hi Adrio, I'm afraid there's no out-of-box tool for us to change the project name and the other related places. We need to manually change e.g. namespace and hosting server configuration for app name if required.

Thank you for your response Adrio. Per my understanding, if this is not a critical app/production app, or we have a staging/development environment for testing purpose, we might just change the project name and the csproj file name and see whether the app has compiling error or not. I had a test in my API project, and I found that the app could still work well if I just change the project name. I can understand that you are now maintaining a large and complex application, but if we want to complete a project-name-changing task, we have no other good options except change relate items one-by-one.
