.NET Aspire SDK

  • 發行項

The .NET Aspire SDK is intended for *.AppHost projects, which serve as the .NET Aspire orchestrator. These projects as designated using the <IsAspireHost>true</IsAspireHost> property, as well as specifying the Aspire.AppHost.Sdk in the project file. The SDK provides a set of features that simplify the development of .NET Aspire apps.

Overview

The 📦 Aspire.AppHost.Sdk is an additive MSBuild project SDK for building .NET Aspire apps. The Aspire.AppHost.Sdk is defined with a top-level Project/Sdk:

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">

    <Sdk Name="Aspire.AppHost.Sdk" Version="9.0.0" />
    
    <PropertyGroup>
        <OutputType>Exe</OutputType>
        <TargetFramework>net9.0</TargetFramework>
        <IsAspireHost>true</IsAspireHost>
        <!-- Omitted for brevity -->
    </PropertyGroup>
    
    <ItemGroup>
        <PackageReference Include="Aspire.Hosting.AppHost" Version="9.0.0" />
    </ItemGroup>

    <!-- Omitted for brevity -->
</Project>

The preceding example project defines the top-level SDK as Microsoft.NET.Sdk and the Aspire.AppHost.Sdk as an additive SDK. The IsAspireHost property is set to true to indicate that this project is an .NET Aspire app host. The project also references the Aspire.Hosting.AppHost package which brings in a number of Aspire-related dependencies.

SDK Features

The .NET Aspire SDK provides several key features.

Project references

The ProjectReference in the .NET Aspire app host project aren't treated as standard project references. This feature enables the app host to execute these projects instead as part of its orchestration. Each project reference triggers a generator to create a class that represents the project as an IProjectMetadata. This metadata is used to populate the named projects in the generated Projects namespace. When you call the Aspire.Hosting.ProjectResourceBuilderExtensions.AddProject API, the Projects namespace is used to reference the project—passing the generated class as a generic-type parameter.

Tip

If you need to reference a project within the app host and you want to avoid this functionality, set the IsAspireProjectResource attribute on the ProjectReference element to false, as shown in the following example:

<ProjectReference Include="..\MyProject\MyProject.csproj" IsAspireProjectResource="false" />

Orchestrator dependencies

The .NET Aspire SDK dynamically adds references to the .NET Aspire dashboard and other app host dependencies, such as, the developer control plane (DCP) packages. These dependencies are specific to the platform that the app host is built on.

When the app host project runs, the orchestrator relies on these dependencies to provide the necessary functionality to the app host. For more information, see .NET Aspire orchestration overview.
