Emulator as .Net Tool

[MirzaMerdovic]

Hi,

First thank you for the hard work on this tool 🍻

I was wandering if you thought about packaging it up as a .Net Tool, Azure SIgnalR emulator is packaged as .Net Tool which makes it easy to use for people that do not use Docker.
Do you see that as feasible or a good idea for AzureEventGridSimulator

Thanks for the suggestion, I will look into it.

This has just been implemented in the latest version.

You can install it as a global tool:

dotnet tool install -g AzureEventGridSimulator
azure-eventgrid-simulator

Or as a local tool (useful for per-project setup):

dotnet new tool-manifest # if you don't have one already
dotnet tool install AzureEventGridSimulator
dotnet tool run azure-eventgrid-simulator

If you run it without a config file, it will display help text showing how to configure it (via
appsettings.json, --ConfigFile argument, or environment variables).

Let me know if you run into any issues!
