Can't get it to work in ASP.NET Core CRA w/ ServiceBroker

Using the ASP.NET Core CRA application that leverages a ServiceBroker, the package does not work.

I was able to get this running after a few hours of trial and error. In short, you are better off modifying your project file and adding a command that executes the versioning script:

<Target Name="UpdateClientAppVersion" BeforeTargets="Build">
<Exec WorkingDirectory="$(SpaRoot)" Command="node ./node_modules/react-clear-cache/bin/cli.js" ContinueOnError="false"/>
</Target>

This will ensure the meta.json file is generated any time you build.
