## Local Development Workflow
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For local development, it's recommended to use nix-shell to create a dotnet environment:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
# shell.nix
|
||
|
|
with import <nixpkgs> {};
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
mkShell {
|
||
|
|
name = "dotnet-env";
|
||
|
|
buildInputs = [
|
||
|
|
dotnet-sdk_3
|
||
|
|
];
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Using many sdks in a workflow
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It's very likely that more than one sdk will be needed on a given project. Dotnet provides several different frameworks (E.g dotnetcore, aspnetcore, etc.) as well as many versions for a given framework. Normally, dotnet is able to fetch a framework and install it relative to the executable. However, this would mean writing to the nix store in nixpkgs, which is read-only. To support the many-sdk use case, one can compose an environment using `dotnetCorePackages.combinePackages`:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
with import <nixpkgs> {};
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
mkShell {
|
||
|
|
name = "dotnet-env";
|
||
|
|
buildInputs = [
|
||
|
|
(with dotnetCorePackages; combinePackages [
|
||
|
|
sdk_3_1
|
||
|
|
sdk_3_0
|
||
|
|
sdk_2_1
|
||
|
|
])
|
||
|
|
];
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This will produce a dotnet installation that has the dotnet 3.1, 3.0, and 2.1 sdk. The first sdk listed will have it's cli utility present in the resulting environment. Example info output:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
$ dotnet --info

## dotnet-sdk vs dotnetCorePackages.sdk
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The `dotnetCorePackages.sdk_X_Y` is preferred over the old dotnet-sdk as both major and minor version are very important for a dotnet environment. If a given minor version isn't present (or was changed), then this will likely break your ability to build a project.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## dotnetCorePackages.sdk vs dotnetCorePackages.netcore vs dotnetCorePackages.aspnetcore
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The `dotnetCorePackages.sdk` contains both a runtime and the full sdk of a given version. The `netcore` and `aspnetcore` packages are meant to serve as minimal runtimes to deploy alongside already built applications.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Packaging a Dotnet Application
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Ideally, we would like to build against the sdk, then only have the dotnet runtime available in the runtime closure.
