project.json and Visual Studio 2015 with .NET Core

On March 7, 2017, the .NET Core and ASP.NET Core documentation was updated for the release of Visual Studio 2017. The previous version of the documentation used Visual Studio 2015 and pre-release tooling based on the project.json file.

project.json 和 csproj 属性之间的映射

这个project.json  是对以前1.0版本的。到1.1 消失了.........

.NET Core计划弃用project.json

Microsoft最终宣布project.json实验失败，将转回使用.csproj文件。但是转变不会马上发生，最近发布的.NET Core RC2（又称tooling preview 1）将继续使用.xproj 以及project.json。

从.NET Core RTM/tooling preview 2开始，Visual Studio将自动重命名.xproj文件为.csproj。但是project.json的功能暂时还不会改变。

从preview 2之后，Microsoft将持续移动project.json的功能到.csproj中去。只需要升级Visual Studio就可以完成部分更新。比如说，尽管Visual Studio坚持一个一个添加源文件，.csproj现在已经支持通配符。project.json的其他功能整合到.csproj中去可能需要完成更多的工作。

在完成迁移之后，project.json可能只作为Nuget包的替代方案存在，那时project.json将被重命名为nuget.json。

MSBuild

你们可能不知道，.csproj文件确实只是.msbuild脚本的专业版本。这就意味着，当.NET Core运行的时候，MSBuild 必须可用。

长期以来，Microsoft 一直在想办法将NuGet的功能直接添加到MSBuild中。（现在MSBuild依靠扩展访问NuGet。）

Asp.NetCore1.1版本去掉了project.json后如何打包生成跨平台包， 为了更好跟进AspNetCore的发展，把之前用来做netcore开发的vs2015卸载后并安装了vs2017，这给我带来的直接好处是把我报红的C盘腾出10GB左右的空间，从这里直接能感受到vs2017体积如此之小；之前有写过一篇开源netcore服务的文章开源一个跨平台运行的服务插件 - TaskCore.MainForm，里面有讲述netcore项目生成和部署在win7和ubuntu16.04系统上的例子，感兴趣的朋友可以去看看；下面开始本文的内容，希望大家能够喜欢，也希望各位多多"扫码支持"和"推荐"谢谢！

Publish to a Linux Production Environment

By Sourabh Shirhatti

In this guide, we will cover setting up a production-ready ASP.NET environment on an Ubuntu 14.04 Server.

We will take an existing ASP.NET Core application and place it behind a reverse-proxy server. We will then setup the reverse-proxy server to forward requests to our Kestrel web server.

Additionally we will ensure our web application runs on startup as a daemon and configure a process management tool to help restart our web application in the event of a crash to guarantee high availability.

Prerequisites

1. Access to an Ubuntu 14.04 Server with a standard user account with sudo privilege.

2. An existing ASP.NET Core application.

Copy over your app

Run dotnet publish from your dev environment to package your application into a self-contained directory that can run on your server.

Before we proceed, copy your ASP.NET Core application to your server using whatever tool (SCP, FTP, etc) integrates into your workflow. Try and run the app and navigate to http://<serveraddress>:<port> in your browser to see if the application runs fine on Linux. I recommend you have a working app before proceeding.

[!NOTE] You can use Yeoman to create a new ASP.NET Core application for a new project.

Configure a reverse proxy server

A reverse proxy is a common setup for serving dynamic web applications. The reverse proxy terminates the HTTP request and forwards it to the ASP.NET application.

Why use a reverse-proxy server?

Kestrel is great for serving dynamic content from ASP.NET, however the web serving parts aren’t as feature rich as full-featured servers like IIS, Apache or Nginx. A reverse proxy-server can allow you to offload work like serving static content, caching requests, compressing requests, and SSL termination from the HTTP server. The reverse proxy server may reside on a dedicated machine or may be deployed alongside an HTTP server.

For the purposes of this guide, we are going to use a single instance of Nginx that runs on the same server alongside your HTTP server. However, based on your requirements you may choose a different setup.

Install Nginx

sudo apt-get install nginx

[!NOTE] If you plan to install optional Nginx modules you may be required to build Nginx from source.

We are going to apt-get to install Nginx. The installer also creates a System V init script that runs Nginx as daemon on system startup. Since we just installed Nginx for the first time, we can explicitly start it by running

sudo service nginx start

At this point you should be able to navigate to your browser and see the default landing page for Nginx.

Configure Nginx

We will now configure Nginx as a reverse proxy to forward requests to our ASP.NET application

We will be modifying the /etc/nginx/sites-available/default, so open it up in your favorite text editor and replace the contents with the following.

server {    listen 80;    location / {        proxy_pass http://localhost:5000;        proxy_http_version 1.1;        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;        proxy_set_header Connection keep-alive;        proxy_set_header Host $host;        proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;    }}

This is one of the simplest configuration files for Nginx that forwards incoming public traffic on your port 80 to a port 5000that your web application will listen on.

Once you have completed making changes to your nginx configuration you can run sudo nginx -t to verify the syntax of your configuration files. If the configuration file test is successful you can ask nginx to pick up the changes by running sudo nginx -s reload.

Monitoring our Web Application

Nginx will forward requests to your Kestrel server, however unlike IIS on Windows, it does not mangage your Kestrel process. In this tutorial, we will use supervisor to start our application on system boot and restart our process in the event of a failure.

Installing supervisor

sudo apt-get install supervisor

[!NOTE] supervisor is a python based tool and you can acquire it through pip or easy_install instead.

Configuring supervisor

Supervisor works by creating child processes based on data in its configuration file. When a child process dies, supervisor is notified via the SIGCHILD signal and supervisor can react accordingly and restart your web application.

To have supervisor monitor our application, we will add a file to the /etc/supervisor/conf.d/ directory.

/etc/supervisor/conf.d/hellomvc.conf

[program:hellomvc]command=/usr/bin/dotnet /var/aspnetcore/HelloMVC/HelloMVC.dlldirectory=/var/aspnetcore/HelloMVC/autostart=trueautorestart=truestderr_logfile=/var/log/hellomvc.err.logstdout_logfile=/var/log/hellomvc.out.logenvironment=HOME=/var/www/,ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT=Productionuser=www-datastopsignal=INTstopasgroup=truekillasgroup=true

Once you are done editing the configuration file, restart the supervisord process to change the set of programs controlled by supervisord.

sudo service supervisor stopsudo service supervisor start

Start our web application on startup

In our case, since we are using supervisor to manage our application, the application will be automatically started by supervisor. Supervisor uses a System V Init script to run as a daemon on system boot and will susbsequently launch your application. If you chose not to use supervisor or an equivalent tool, you will need to write a systemd or upstart or SysVinit script to start your application on startup.

Viewing logs

Supervisord logs messages about its own health and its subprocess‘ state changes to the activity log. The path to the activity log is configured via the logfile parameter in the configuration file.

sudo tail -f /var/log/supervisor/supervisord.log

You can redirect application logs (STDOUT and STERR) in the program section of your configuration file.

tail -f /var/log/hellomvc.out.log

Securing our application

Enable AppArmor

Linux Security Modules (LSM) is a framework that is part of the Linux kernel since Linux 2.6 that supports different implementations of security modules. AppArmor is a LSM that implements a Mandatory Access Control system which allows you to confine the program to a limited set of resources. Ensure AppArmor is enabled and properly configured.

Configuring our firewall

Close off all external ports that are not in use. Uncomplicated firewall (ufw) provides a frontend for iptables by providing a command-line interface for configuring the firewall. Verify that ufw is configured to allow traffic on any ports you need.

sudo apt-get install ufwsudo ufw enablesudo ufw allow 80/tcpsudo ufw allow 443/tcp

Securing Nginx

The default distribution of Nginx doesn‘t enable SSL. To enable all the security features we require, we will build from source.

Download the source and install the build dependencies

# Install the build dependenciessudo apt-get updatesudo apt-get install build-essential zlib1g-dev libpcre3-dev libssl-dev libxslt1-dev libxml2-dev libgd2-xpm-dev libgeoip-dev libgoogle-perftools-dev libperl-dev# Download nginx 1.10.0 or latestwget http://www.nginx.org/download/nginx-1.10.0.tar.gztar zxf nginx-1.10.0.tar.gz

Change the Nginx response name

Edit src/http/ngx_http_header_filter_module.c

static char ngx_http_server_string[] = "Server: Your Web Server" CRLF;static char ngx_http_server_full_string[] = "Server: Your Web Server" CRLF;

Configure the options and build

The PCRE library is required for regular expressions. Regular expressions are used in the location directive for the ngx_http_rewrite_module. The http_ssl_module adds HTTPS protocol support.

Consider using a web application firewall like ModSecurity to harden your application.

./configure--with-pcre=../pcre-8.38--with-zlib=../zlib-1.2.8--with-http_ssl_module--with-stream--with-mail=dynamic

Configure SSL

• Configure your server to listen to HTTPS traffic on port 443 by specifying a valid certificate issued by a trusted Certificate Authority (CA).

• Harden your security by employing some of the practices suggested below like choosing a stronger cipher and redirecting all traffic over HTTP to HTTPS.

• Adding an HTTP Strict-Transport-Security (HSTS) header ensures all subsequent requests made by the client are over HTTPS only.

• Do not add the Strict-Transport-Security header or chose an appropriate max-age if you plan to disable SSL in the future.

Add /etc/nginx/proxy.conf configuration file.

[!code-nginxMain]

Edit /etc/nginx/nginx.conf configuration file. The example contains both http and server sections in one configuration file.
