C# Project Management with Maven

Question

Anyone had experience of managing C# based projects with Maven?

If yes , please tell me a few words about it , how weird would it be to create such a setup.

Answer 1

For .NET Core, you can use the dotnet-maven-plugin which drives the dotnet and nuget commands, as well as adds support for e.g. cleaning, releasing etc. in the "Maven way".

Here's an example plugin configuration:

  [...]
  dotnet

  [...]
  
    
      
        org.eobjects.build
        dotnet-maven-plugin
        0.11
        true
      
    
  
  [...]

(Notice the packaging type set to dotnet).

This will then read from the project.json file and run dotnet and nuget commands according to the maven lifecycle phases such as clean, compile, test, install etc.
