Containerize .NET in 5 minutes (or less) | C# Microservice Course (Episode 6)

[@geosystems2106]

This is an exceptional video as it does not only mention "what" but also comments on "why" ! Yet, still under 8 minutes, good job !!

[@根本花里子]

I was searching for SO LONG trying to understand how to write dockerfiles properly, but all other videos only confused me even more. I was in despair, but your clear explanation saved me. I'm literally crying rn🥺🥺🥺😭😭😭😭😭THANK YOU SO MUCH💝💝💛

[@imanqoly]

You explained it flawlessly

[@frankmccann29]

Look great. Lotta material. Thank you so much for the work. Some concepts of the code mainly switches are alien but your expose is clear enough to get it by rote.

[@Xerxes17]

Thank you very much for making the video very clear, but also *explaining* what each part of the line is for. All to many tutorials just blurt out entire lines or even blocks of code without spending the time to build understanding.

Super helpful video - thanks for posting this Chris

You're welcome Carl - hope it helped you sort the problem!

Thank you Saul Goodman

Thank you. I have a question for you. I have, for example, 10 projects on 10 specific different services in my solution. It turns out that I can't create a Dockerfile at the solution level and I have to add the Dockerfile to each project separately. Right? But there is a problem. There is one more project in the solution, the eleventh. This is a library of classes with certain models. When I try to build a container, I get the following error about skipping building a common project with classes because it's not defined in the context of Dockerfile. How can I get out of this situation? Thanks

Thanks for the video, so the . While doing the COPY command(the one after WORKDIR, 3rd line from the top) represent /src , as its the source folder?

[@junioranheu]

Great video! One question: why should I containerize an application??

[@RDT]

Containers make it easier to distribute your application and run it reliably pretty much anywhere, as you’re essentially packaging up the runtime environment with your code. Docker Compose, Kubernetes, Azure Container Apps, Amazon ECS and Google Cloud Run all use containers as a unit of deployment. It also means you can supply a containerised version of your application to others working on your project and they will be able to run without installing all dependencies. Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@junioranheu]

@@RDT thank you so much for answering!!

Hi, I am building a Windows Desktop Client Poker-game Application( using Msbuild and C#,WPF with artifacts as msi/exe, Can i containerise them using docker and is it possible? Thanks in Advance.

[@RDT]

For Windows desktop apps you’re best sticking with an MSI installer or something like Squirrel.

[@wa1gon]

having to deploy docker with Nginx would be great

[@RDT]

Do you mean Nginx as a reverse proxy to a web app in a container? I use Docker Compose for this - would you be interested in a video on this subject?

[@wa1gon]

@@RDT Yes, I would very much like a video using Nginx as a reverse proxy. Thanks

[@RDT]

Thanks Darryl, I’ll pop it on the list to make 🙂

[@alessandromartinelli347]

Hi, thanks for the video. If I have an application relying on a specific device drivers, is there a way of including them in a docker? or would a Virtual Machine more appropriate in such a case? (I'd prefer using docker w.r.t virtual machines for performance reasons)

[@VishalJadhav-jw3oc]

how could i see it in browser?

[@domagojhorvat2646]

Can this setup with windows image be used to deploy to Azure Container Apps or is Linux image a must? (having on mind Azure Container Apps don't support windows images)

[@RDT]

Not sure on Container Apps, but I run a few of these workers on Linux images + hosts no problem 👍🏻
