@ifaxity/semantic-release-dotnet

semantic-release plugin to build a dotnet project using the dotnet-cli.

| Step | Description | |--------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | verifyConditions | Verify that the dotnet-cli is installed and prints its version. | | prepare | Executes dotnet clean followed by dotnet build which builds a specified project. |

Install

$ npm i --save-dev @ifaxity/semantic-release-dotnet

Usage

The plugin can be configured in the semantic-release configuration file:

{
  "plugins": [
    "@semantic-release/commit-analyzer",
    "@semantic-release/release-notes-generator",
    ["@ifaxity/semantic-release-dotnet" {

    }],
  ]
}

With this example:

• The projects output will be cleaned
• The project will be built and versioned

Configuration

Environment variables

| Variable | Description | | ----------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| | BUILD_PROJECT | Sets the project options default value to the specified value. | | BUILD_CONFIGURATION | Sets the configuration options default value to the specified value. | | BUILD_OUTPUT | Sets the output options default value to the specified value. | | BUILD_RUNTIME | Sets the runtime options default value to the specified value. | | BUILD_OS | Sets the os options default value to the specified value. | | BUILD_ARCH | Sets the arch options default value to the specified value. | | PUBLISH_PROFILE | Sets the publishProfile options default value to the specified value. |

Options

project

• Type: string
• Related: dotnet build arguments

The project or solution file to build. If a project or solution file isn't specified, MSBuild searches the current working directory for a file that has a file extension that ends in either proj or sln and uses that file.

configuration

• Type: string
• Default: Release
• Related: dotnet build options

Defines the build configuration. The default for most projects is Debug, but you can override the build configuration settings in your project.

output

• Type: string
• Related: dotnet build options

Directory in which to place the built binaries. If not specified, the default path is ./bin/{configuration}/{framework}/. For projects with multiple target frameworks (via the TargetFrameworks property), you also need to define --framework when you specify this option.

publish

• Type: boolean
• Default: false
• Related: dotnet publish options

If true then the "build" command is swapped out ot instead use "publish" instead.

publishProfile

• Type: string
• Related: dotnet publish options

Name of the publish profile to use when publishing. Requires the option publish to be true.

restore

• Type: boolean
• Default: false
• Related: dotnet build options

Doesn't execute an implicit restore during build.

force

• Type: boolean
• Default: false
• Related: dotnet build options

Forces all dependencies to be resolved even if the last restore was successful. Specifying this flag is the same as deleting the project.assets.json file.

source

• Type: string[]
• Default: []
• Related: dotnet build options

The URI of the NuGet package source to use during the restore operation.

properties

• Type: Record<string, string>
• Default: {}
• Related: MSBuild properties

MSBuild properties to override when building the project. See the MSBuild properties reference for a list of properties that can be set.

os

• Type: string
• Related: dotnet build options

Specifies the target operating system (OS). This is a shorthand syntax for setting the Runtime Identifier (RID), where the provided value is combined with the default RID. For example, on a win-x64 machine, specifying --os linux sets the RID to linux-x64. If you use this option, don't use the -r|--runtime option. Available since .NET 6.

runtime

• Type: string
• Related: dotnet build options

Specifies the target runtime. For a list of Runtime Identifiers (RIDs), see the RID catalog. If you use this option with .NET 6 SDK, use --self-contained or --no-self-contained also. If not specified, the default is to build for the current OS and architecture.

arch

• Type: string
• Related: dotnet build options

Specifies the target architecture. This is a shorthand syntax for setting the Runtime Identifier (RID), where the provided value is combined with the default RID. For example, on a win-x64 machine, specifying --arch x86 sets the RID to win-x86. If you use this option, don't use the -r|--runtime option. Available since .NET 6 Preview 7.

selfContained

• Type: string
• Related: dotnet build options

When the option is true then the .net runtime is packaged when publishing. The default is true if a runtime identifier is specified. Available since .NET 6 SDK. When the option is false then the application is published without the .net runtime and requires any target machiene to install a .net runtime to run the application. Available since .NET 6 SDK.

The default is to not apply either, so set this explicitly to ensure the desired outcome.

buildArguments

• Type: string[]
• Default: []
• Related: dotnet build options

Generic build arguments to send, can be used if there is a specific option that needs to be configured that is not in the config above.
