Dotnet Global Tools Extension for ASPIRE–part 1–idea

Every time I am at a new PC , I need dotnet to program. Ans also I find the need to install some dotnet tools ( global or local) . To mention only 2,

  • dotnet-ef – Entity Framework Core command-line tool for
    database scaffolding ,migrations and management
  • dotnet-outdated – Checks for outdated NuGet dependencies in
    your project.

Also, every project that I make it is orchestrated with ASPIRE . Putting those together , I created  DotnetGlobalToolsExtensionAspire project demonstrates just how easy it is for developers to manage and install essential tools using the power of ASPIRE.    

So the idea is to create an ASPIRE resource that  is designed to work seamlessly with ASPIRE, making tool installation and management a natural part of your .NET solution. This not only saves time but also reduces errors and inconsistencies across development and testing

You will find code at aspireExtensions/src/DotNetGlobalToolsExtensions at main · ignatandrei/aspireExtensions and the nuget at https://www.nuget.org/packages/DotnetGlobalToolsExtensionAspire
