dotnet-publish:tldr:a2d75
This command is used to publish a .NET project in Release configuration. Here's how each part of the command works:
-
dotnet publish
: This is the command to execute the publish operation using the .NET CLI (Command-Line Interface). It is used to produce a self-contained deployment of a .NET application. -
--configuration Release
: This flag specifies the build configuration to use during the publish process. In this case, the Release configuration is chosen. The Release configuration is typically used to create a production-ready build with optimizations and without debug symbols. -
${path-to-project_file}
: This is a placeholder indicating that you need to replace it with the actual path to your project file (i.e., .csproj file). It represents the project that you want to publish.
Once you replace ${path-to-project_file}
with the actual path to your project file, running this command will publish your .NET project in the Release configuration, resulting in a self-contained deployment that is suitable for production purposes.
