msbuild.exe / full dotnet SDK

[alexellis]

Hi,

I'd like to write about CI with Windows Containers and msbuild.

Can you help me put together an image which could run msbuild / nuget and output DLLs etc?

Here are a couple of posts I'm thinking about bringing under CI in a tutorial:

Docker voting app converted to Windows containers + ASP.NET:

Getting started guide for IIS / Windows Containers + .NET

Potential Dockerfile here? Thoughts?

@alexellis We are looking at publishing official "-onbuild" images on DockerHub similar to what we've done for .NET Core already

Your Dockerfile looks good for just building your application, however it might be worthwhile to say perhaps have IIS/IIS Express to run integration tests for a web application. We've haven't reached consensus on what we're putting in that image, but we definitely plan to address the CI scenario.

As a data point, here's another Dockerfile I've seen out in the wild, so we realize you are not the only person with this question.

Is this still in the roadmap?

Hi I'm glad you found the blog post useful. I'm not sure if this issue is the best forum to provide support, perhaps you could take it up with the .NET team at Microsoft or the .NET community forums?

Producing onbuild images is no longer something that we are considering. The usage of onbuild images doesn't seem to have taken off. Please refer to the samples for our recommended usage patterns.
