Custom NancyFX IViewLocationProvider implementation to allow for loading views from a RavenDB server instance. Views loaded from RavenDB will override views which exist on the File System.

CustomBootstraper.cs

        protected override NancyInternalConfiguration InternalConfiguration
        {
            get
            {
  			return NancyInternalConfiguration
					.WithOverrides(x => x.ViewLocationProvider = typeof (RavenViewLocationProvider))
                    .WithIgnoredAssembly(asm => asm.FullName.StartsWith("RavenDB", StringComparison.InvariantCulture)); // or override ConfigureApplicationContainer to set AutoRegister to false
            }
        }
