Really well explained, thanks for your help! Kinda what I needed. I wonder if it would also be able with a .net core Application. Like a desktop application for the raspbian OS. Because I have written a GUI, like a dashboard, in c# as .net core app and would like to display it on the raspberry pi.. but actually have no solution how ^^

Hi im just learning about this stuff. Why use Docker and not just publish the app as self-contained ?

Hi Alex,

Great article. Thanks for sharing. I have followed the exact steps in the article but unfortunately getting following error.

Step 5/12 : COPY pi-sharp pi-sharp
COPY failed: stat no such file or directory

Did I miss anythig ?

Regards,
John

Finally able to fixed the issue. Something is wrong with docker file.
Replaced with following,

FROM microsoft/dotnet:2.0-sdk AS build-env
WORKDIR /app

# copy csproj and restore as distinct layers
COPY *.csproj ./
RUN dotnet restore

# copy everything else and build
COPY . ./
RUN dotnet publish -c Release -r linux-arm -o out

# build runtime image
FROM
WORKDIR /app
COPY --from=build-env /app/out ./

CMD ["dotnet", "pi-sharp.dll"]
