.Net Core 构建解决方案

Question

If you try to run from the command line in the top directory of a solution made with visual studio:

dotnet build

My solution is architectured like that:

MySolution.sln
   > src
       > MyProject1
           > project.json
       > MyProject2
           > project.json
   > test
       > MyProject.Test
           > project.json

it will fail with the following error:

Couldn't find 'project.json' in current directory

How could I build the solution without having to specify each project explicitely (and then without the related maintenance) ?

Answer 1

.NET Core 1.0 Preview (project.json)

You can use wildcards like that from the top directory (where lies the .sln).

• With the project.json in SolutionDir/Src/ProjectName :

  dotnet build */**/project.json
  

• If project.json in SolutionDir/ProjectName :

  dotnet build **/project.json

Note: It's recommended to migrate to new csproj project format to get support and new features.

Since .NET Core 1.0 RTM

The solution is back for good.

  dotnet build solution.sln

In powershell, build all csproj file under the current directory.

foreach ($csproj in $(Get-ChildItem -Recurse . -Filter *.csproj) )
{
    dotnet build $csproj.FullName
}

Answer 2

If you arrive here looking for the command to build a SLN with dotnet CLI (v3.1.X), using only CLI args, it's below.

dotnet build <PATH>/<TO>/<SLN_FILE>.sln

Answer 3

To add to the answer, if you are publishing the project, use dotnet publish src\\MyProject1\\ to publish all the files.

Publishing will include files defined to be included in project.json.

Answer 4

With dotnet CLI 2.1, it could build the solution. Here is my config:

        {
            "label": "build",
            "command": "dotnet",
            "type": "process",
            "args": [
                "build",
                "${workspaceFolder}/SolutionName.sln",
                "/property:GenerateFullPaths=true"
            ],
            "problemMatcher": "$msCompile",
            "group": {
                "kind": "build",
                "isDefault": true
            }
        },
