Publish a .NET application and its dependencies to a directory for deployment to a hosting system. More information: https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/core/tools/dotnet-publish.

• Compile a .NET project in release mode:

dotnet publish --configuration Release path/to/project_file

• Publish the .NET Core runtime with your application for the specified runtime:

dotnet publish --self-contained true --runtime runtime_identifier path/to/project_file

• Package the application into a platform-specific single-file executable:

dotnet publish --runtime runtime_identifier -p:PublishSingleFile=true path/to/project_file

• Trim unused libraries to reduce the deployment size of an application:

dotnet publish --self-contained true --runtime runtime_identifier -p:PublishTrimmed=true path/to/project_file

• Compile a .NET project without restoring dependencies:

dotnet publish --no-restore path/to/project_file

• Specify the output directory:

dotnet publish --output path/to/directory path/to/project_file
