Strawberry Shake

Describe the bug

Following the get started guide (https://chillicream.com/docs/strawberryshake/v13/get-started/console) doesn't work.

I made a fresh solution, followed the guide but I get a build error. The code won't compile.

Steps to reproduce

Reproduction steps:

1. Installed Visual Studio 2022
2. Followed this: https://chillicream.com/docs/strawberryshake/v13/get-started/console to create a new solution and console app project, using chilli cream's Conference gql server (targeting .Net 6.0)
3. Attempted to build solution as per step 5

Expected:
Code compiles

Actual:
Build error:
error MSB4057: The target "GenerateGraphQLCode" does not exist in the project.

Relevant log output

Can you attach a demo project here showing this issue?

From the error message it looks like the StrawberryShake.Server package is missing in your project.

I'm now running into what looks like an issue with the documents setting in .graphqlrc.json

If I set documents to "**/*.graphql",
I get: EXEC : error GQL: An item with the same key has already been added. Key: JSON

If I set documents to "./Documents/*.graphql", and put queries in a Folder called Documents:
Warning MSB5029 The value "***.cs" of the "Include" attribute in element in file ".nuget\packages\strawberryshake.server\13.0.5\build\StrawberryShake.Server.targets (23,16)" is a wildcard that results in enumerating all files on the drive, which was likely not intended. Check that referenced properties are always defined.
This occurs with .graphqlrc.json
and no client seems to be generated

If I set documents to "GQLDocs/*.graphql" and put docs in GQLDocs:
allows the project to build with no errors, but still no client generated, so I can't add the client to the DI, using builder.Services.AddXClient(), with XClient being the name, even with a using for the namespace value set in .graphqlrc.json

can you advise what should be set here as the default isn't working?

{ "schema": "schema.graphql", "documents": "GQLDocs/*.graphql", "extensions": { "strawberryShake": { "name": "XClient", "namespace": "XGQL", "url": "https://someserver.com/graphql", "records": { "inputs": false, "entities": false }, "transportProfiles": [ { "default": "Http", "subscription": "WebSocket" } ] } } }

Same here, I got .NET 6, 7 and 8 preview versions installed, the rest of the solution projects are all .NET 8, even if create a class lib with .NET 7, it just fails completely on dotnet build, when following the (sorry, quite lacking) documentation:

PS C:\Projects\XXXX\XXXX.YYYY.GithubService\GithubService.GithubGraphQL> dotnet build

Ok resolved it by adding a global.json for .net 7, in the project root folder, i really feel like this should be in the getting started pages tbh.

Edit: I take that back, it correctly writes:
Generate C# Clients started.
Generate GithubClient started.
Generate GithubClient completed in 78 ms
Generate C# Clients completed in 239 ms

But there is no Generated folder, and the assembly contains nothing, so seems like its doing nothing after all.
