This is a simple build, test, pack and NuGet push for .NET projects. "Default" in that it assumes the dotnet SDK commands build, test, pack and nuget push can be run and all required information is defaulted (e.g. solutions, projects, tests). It also assumes that all NuGet packages that are packed with the dotnet pack SDK command will be pushed to the NuGet registry.

• If the nuget_source input isn't supplied, the organizational GitHub NuGet registry (https://nuget.pkg.github.com/${{ github.repository_owner }}/index.json) is assumed.

This workflow leverages dotnet-build-test-pack-push-default.yml and allows a simple configuration for push actions, ignoring pushed tags, with packages being pushed to the GitHub NuGet registry:

name: Push

on:
  push:
    branches:    
      - '**'
    tags-ignore:
      - '**'

jobs:
  push:
    permissions:
      checks: write
      contents: read
      packages: write
    uses: NetChris/workflows/.github/workflows/push-dotnet-build-test-pack-push-default.yml@SHA

Note the permissions requirement.

To upgrade the .NET SDK version to use for dotnet commands, update the following bit in each file where dotnet is called:

# ...
- name: Setup dotnet
  uses: actions/setup-dotnet@v4
  with:
    dotnet-version: '9.x'
# ...

This workflow leverages dotnet-build-test-pack-push-default.yml and allows a simple configuration for pre-release actions, with packages being pushed to NuGet.org:

# Put this in a "publish-nuget-org-pre-release.yml" file
name: Pre-Release - NuGet.org

on:
  release:
    types: [prereleased]

jobs:
  push:
    permissions:
      contents: read
      packages: write
    uses: NetChris/workflows/.github/workflows/pre-release-nuget-org.yml@SHA
    secrets: inherit
