How can I get service provider from service collection?

Hello, everyone. am working on console app using meditR, want to get service provider from service collection. I've got a compile error on ServiceCollection.BuildServiceProvider

IServiceCollection' does not contain a definition for 'BuildServiceProvider' and no accessible extension method 'BuildServiceProvider' accepting a first argument of type 'IServiceCollection' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?

Since you seem to be using DI here, why not make UrlController a part of the DI container as well, and simply inject the IMediator? Setting up DI and then not using DI is counterproductive

var services = new ServiceCollection();
... // add your stuff here
var provider = services.BuildServiceProvider();

var mediator = provider.GetRequiredService<IMediator>();

var services = new ServiceCollection();
... // add your stuff here
var provider = services.BuildServiceProvider();

var mediator = provider.GetRequiredService<IMediator>();

but yeah, agree with ZZZZZZ, register your controller too let it resolve the mediator internally
