What is this?

Template repo for setting up a simple .NET library (nuget) show casing some common use cases:

• GitHub actions (CI, deploy)
  • CI : Restore, build & unit tests via Xunit
  • Pre-release:
    • Automated publishing of pre-release versions to nuget.org
    • Semver-versioning via GitVersion
    • Manually triggered workflow
  • Release:
    • Same as Pre-release, + publish a Github release w/ release notes using the GitHub Release Notes API.
• A sensible .editorconfig for csharp
• A sensible .gitignorefor .NET projects
• Commonly setup Nuget package contents:
  • Package icon (embedded in nuget)
  • Readme showing in nuget.org (embedded in nuget),
  • Multi-targeting and conditional dependencies dep on TFM
  • Bundling internal dependencies: peer dependencies/transient dependencies (project refs) as dlls in main nuget without publish of peer to nuget.org. See #2.
• Funding for GitHub Sponsors
• MIT License

Using the template

Requirements

The GitHub actions requirements:

• The sln file must be in /source
• For publish to work, set a GitHub Secret NUGETORGAPIKEY for nuget.org

Conventions

• It builds & tests projects part of the sln found in /source
• Renaming the sln file does not impact the GitHub actions.
• Renaming any projects does not impact the GitHub actions.
• Publishing a pre-release version is done via manually triggering the prerelease GH action in any branch (input to the trigger). Versioning handled automatically by GitVersion.
• Publishing a release version is done the same way: manually triggering the release GH action.
