AbpDevTools

A set of tools to make development with ABP easier. It's a dotnet tool and accessed via abpdev CLI command.

It helps the developer, build, run, replace, and manage logs of the projects. It makes running multiple solutions and projects easier.

AbpDevTools on Nuget

Installation

dotnet tool update -g AbpDevTools
  • Installation for a specific runtime other than the latest:

    dotnet tool update -g AbpDevTools --framework net7.0
    # or
    dotnet tool update -g AbpDevTools --framework net6.0

This package is compiled for .NET 6.0, 7.0 and 8.0. So you can install it for a specific runtime. If you don't specify a runtime, it'll install the latest version.

Local Installation

If you don't have access to the package source. You can install it from the source code by the following code:

pwsh install.ps1

Getting Started

You can watch the 'Getting Started' video for onboarding this tool:

Usage

Execute abpdev command in the terminal and it'll show you the help message.

abpdev --help

Commands

The following commands are available:

abpdev build

Builds all solutions/projects in the current directory recursively. (Multiple solutions)

abpdev build <workingdirectory> [options]
abpdev build -h

PARAMETERS
  workingdirectory  Working directory to run build. Probably project or solution directory path goes here. Default: . (Current Directory) 
OPTIONS
  -f|--build-files  (Array) Names or part of names of projects or solutions will be built.
  -i|--interactive  Interactive build file selection. Default: "False".
  -c|--configuration
  -h|--help         Shows help text.

Convention: *.sln files are considered as solutions and *.csproj files are considered as projects.

abpdev build

Example commands

  • Run in a specific path

    abpdev build C:\Path\To\Projects
  • Run in a specific configuration

    abpdev build C:\Path\To\Projects -c Release
  • Run in a specific path with specific configuration and specific projects

    abpdev build C:\Path\To\Projects -c Release -f ProjectA.csproj ProjectB.csproj
  • Run in interactive mode (Select projects to build)

    abpdev build -i

    abpdev build interactive

abpdev run

Runs the solution in the current directory. (Multiple solution, multiple applications including DbMigrator)

abpdev run <workingdirectory> [options]
PARAMETERS
  workingdirectory  Working directory to run build. Probably project or solution directory path goes here. Default: . (Current Directory)

OPTIONS
  -w|--watch        Watch mode Default: "False".
  --skip-migrate    Skips migration and runs projects directly. Default: "False".
  -a|--all          Projects to run will not be asked as prompt. All of them will run. Default: "False".
  --no-build        Skipts build before running. Passes '--no-build' parameter to dotnet run. Default: "False".
  -i|--install-libs  Runs 'abp install-libs' command while running the project simultaneously. Default: "False".
  -g|--graphBuild   Uses /graphBuild while running the applications. So no need building before running. But it may cause some performance. Default: "False".
  -p|--projects     (Array) Names or part of names of projects will be ran.
  -c|--configuration
  -e| --env        Virtual Environment name. You can manage virtual environments by using 'abpdev env config'
  -h|--help         Shows help text.

Convention: *.csproj files with specific names are considered as applications or dbmigrators.

Use abpdev run config command to change project name conventions according to your requirements

abpdev run

Example commands

  • Run multiple solutions

    abpdev run C:\Path\To\Top\Folder\Of\Solutions

    abpdev run multiple solutions

  • Run in a specific path

    abpdev run C:\Path\To\Projects
  • Run in a specific configuration and specific path

    abpdev run C:\Path\To\Projects -c Release
  • Run all projects instead prompt selection

    abpdev run -a

    abpdev run all

  • Skip migration and run projects directly

    abpdev run --skip-migrate
  • Run in watch mode

    abpdev run -w

    Please note that we cannot print URL's because dotnet does give any output.

Virtual Environments

Virtual environments are used to run multiple solutions with different configurations. For example, you can run different solutions with different environments (connectionstrings etc.).

You can manage virtual environments by using abpdev env config command and use those pre-configured environments with other commands like: abpdev run -e SqlServer. This command will use the environment named SqlServer. You can set different connectionstrings for each environment.

abpdev env config

You'll see the following screen. You can add, edit, delete, and select virtual environments.

{
 "SqlServer": {
   "Variables": {
     "ConnectionStrings__Default": "Server=localhost;Database={AppName}_{Today};User ID=SA;Password=12345678Aa;TrustServerCertificate=True"
   }
 },
 "MongoDB": {
   "Variables": {
     "ConnectionStrings__Default": "mongodb://localhost:27017/{AppName}_{Today}"
   }
 }
}

{Today} will be replaced with the current date. So you can run multiple solutions with different databases. {AppName} will be replaced with the application name. So you can run multiple solutions with different databases. _When app name couldn't be detected, folder name will be used.

Example commands

  • Run in a specific virtual environment
    abpdev run -e SqlServer

abpdev logs

Finds given project under the current directory and shows logs of it.

abpdev logs

abpdev logs clear

  abpdev logs <projectname> [options]
  abpdev logs [command] [...]

It only works on Windows and MacOS. Linux is not supported yet.

abpdev enable-notifications
abpdev disable-notifications

It'll send a notification when a migration, build or run process is completed.
