Nx Plugin for .NET Core

Nx Plugin to generate, run, build and test .NET Core projects inside your Nx workspace.

🔎 Powerful, Extensible Dev Tools

Prerequisite

If you have not already:

• Install .NET core
• Create an Nx workspace

Getting Started

Install Plugin

npm install @bbaia/nx-dotnet-core --save-dev

Generate a project

Run nx g @bbaia/nx-dotnet-core:new to generate a project using the dotnet new command.

You will be prompted for entering:

• The type of project (application or library)
• The .NET Core template to use (Use dotnet new --list --type=Project to list all installed project templates)
• The name of your project

You can skip the interactive prompt or customize all non-prompted options from the command line:

nx g @bbaia/nx-dotnet-core:new <app|lib> <.NET Core template> <your-project-name> --optionName optionValue

| Option | Value | Description | | ------------------ | -------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | tags | string | Add tags to the project (used for linting). | | directory | string | A directory where the project is placed. | | unitTestTemplate | string | The .NET Core template to use for unit tests (ex: 'mstest', 'nunit', 'xunit'). |

Use Nx Console to spend less time looking up command line arguments!

Exemple to generate an ASP.NET Core Web API project with an NUnit test project :

nx g @bbaia/nx-dotnet-core:new app webapi api --unitTestTemplate nunit

Manage a project

• Run nx restore api to restore the dependencies and tools of the project.
• Run nx serve api to serve the app. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.
• Run nx build api to build the project. The build artifacts will be stored in the dist/ directory. Use the --prod flag for a production build.
• Run nx test api to execute the unit tests via nunit. Use the --watch flag to watch files for changes and rerun tests.

You will find more information on the generated README.md file.
