In the past I’ve created a custom Azure Pipelines task to install .NET Core on a Windows server. To test this task, I had to manually setup an environment with virtual machines. I wanted to automate this process, so I created a YAML pipeline in Azure DevOps that automatically provisions an Azure virtual machine and registers the virtual machine in an Azure Pipelines environment.
In this post I show how I install and update the .NET Core Runtime & Hosting Bundle on Windows servers using Azure Pipelines. Making patching .NET Core a trivial matter.
I’ve recently created a new NuGet package called FluentAssertions.ArgumentMatchers.Moq that I published on nuget.org. In order to make the process of creating and publishing this package as smooth and simple as possible, I’ve created a multi-stage YAML pipeline in Azure DevOps.
