.Net 5 Installation on a Raspberry Pi

You can install Dot Net 5 on the Raspberry Pi in one command by executing;

wget -O - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pjgpetecodes/dotnet5pi/master/install.sh | sudo bash

Local Install Script

If you've cloned this repo, you can install Dot Net Core 3 by running the following in the root of the repo;

sudo chmod +x install.sh
sudo ./install.sh

IoT Hub Connection

The 3 IoT Hub Based Examples will require an IoT Hub Device Primary Connection String to work.

Deploying from VS Code on Windows

If you want to Deploy from VSCode on a Windows PC, then modify the RaspberryDeployWSL task's rsync command in the .vscode/tasks.json files in the various projects to point to your Pi IP Address;

"'sshpass -p \"raspberry\" rsync -rvuz $(wslpath '\"'${workspaceFolder}'\"')/bin/linux-arm/publish/ pi@[Enter Your IP Address]:share/${workspaceFolderBasename}/'"

Replace the [Enter Your IP Address] Section with the IP Address of your Pi (No Square Brackets!).

You will also need to change the username (pi@) and password (-p \"raspberry") if you have altered those too.

Debugging from VS Code on Windows

If you want to Debug from VSCode on a Windows PC, then modify the .NET Core Launch Console task in the .vscode/launch.json files in the various projects to point to your Pi's Hostname;

"pipeArgs": [
    "-pw",
    "raspberry",
    "root@[Your Pi Hostname].local"
],

You'll also need to install the VS Debugger;

curl -sSL https://aka.ms/getvsdbgsh | bash /dev/stdin -r linux-arm -v latest -l ~/vsdbg

You may also need to install curl and zip if they're not already installed;
