.NET 8 + Docker

Have you read my previous post about .NET 7 and the new feature of dotnet publish? I recommend reading that post because I won't cover some steps.

Preparation

1. .NET 8 SDK - When posting this, the version is a preview version.
2. Docker

Starter Project

You can try cloning from the net7.0 branch from this repository.

The changes

1. Update DockerNetExample/DockerNetExample.csproj. We update the TargetFramework to net7.0 and add ContainerBaseImage. Normally, we don't add ContainerBaseImage, but because currently still a preview version, I recommend adding it. We also can add ContainerImageTags to distinguish from the previous version.
   

   <Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Web">
   
     <PropertyGroup>
       <TargetFramework>net8.0</TargetFramework>
       <Nullable>enable</Nullable>
       <ImplicitUsings>enable</ImplicitUsings>
       <ContainerImageName>docker-net-example</ContainerImageName>
       <ContainerBaseImage>mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/aspnet:8.0-preview</ContainerBaseImage>
       <ContainerImageTags>2.0.0;latest</ContainerImageTags>
     </PropertyGroup>
   
   </Project>
   

2. Now, let's run the dotnet publish command. Command: dotnet publish --os linux --arch x64 /t:PublishContainer -c Release.

3. Checking the docker image. docker image ls

   

4. I will introduce you to a Docker Compose. If you are using Docker Desktop, you already have Docker Compose bundled. More information about Docker Compose. You can create a file docker-compose.yml.
   

   version: "3.9"
   services:
     dotnet:
       image: "docker-net-example:2.0.0"
       ports:
         - 8000:80
       environment:
         - ASPNETCORE_URLS=http://+
   

5. You can check the detailed PR here.

6. You can test using curl or other tools.
