使 dotnet 发布使用来自 bin 文件夹而不是来自 nuget 缓存的依赖项

Question

In my CI I build and publish .net app on different stages.

On build stage I do dotnet build and it creates obj and bin folders. I then pass that two folders to publish stage and run dotnet publish -o pub --no-build , but msbuild tries to copy dependencies from nuget cache folder ( .nuget/packages ) and not from bin .

Is there a way to make dotnet publish use dependencies from bin folder? I do not want to pass whole .nuget folder from the first stage, as all the dependencies already stored inside bin anyway.

May I ask why do you need the explicit dotnet build when dotnet publish does build under the hood by default? Maybe this can help?

If consistency in packages cache is the goal, another approach would be to explicitly execute dotnet restore (maybe even to an agent temp folder), and then use that package cache in both dotnet build and dotnet restore .

dotnet restore app\app.csproj
dotnet build app\app.csproj --no-restore
dotnet publish app\app.csproj -o pub --no-restore
