Bundling applications for the .NET Core on Linux Elastic Beanstalk platform

You can run both runtime-dependent and self-contained .NET Core applications on Amazon Elastic Beanstalk.

A runtime-dependent application uses a .NET Core runtime that Elastic Beanstalk provides to run your application. Elastic Beanstalk uses the runtimeconfig.json file in your source bundle to determine the runtime to use for your application. Elastic Beanstalk chooses the latest compatible runtime available for your application.

A self-contained application includes the .NET Core runtime, your application, and its dependencies. To use a version of the .NET Core runtime that Elastic Beanstalk doesn't include in its platforms, provide a self-contained application.

Examples

You can compile both self-contained and runtime-dependent applications with the dotnet publish command. To learn more about publishing .NET Core apps, see .NET Core application publishing overview in the .NET Core documentation.

The following example file structure defines a single application that uses a .NET Core runtime that Elastic Beanstalk provides.

├── appsettings.Development.json
├── appsettings.json
├── dotnetcoreapp.deps.json
├── dotnetcoreapp.dll
├── dotnetcoreapp.pdb
├── dotnetcoreapp.runtimeconfig.json
├── web.config
├── Procfile
├── .ebextensions
├── .platform

You can include multiple applications in your source bundle. The following example defines two applications to run on the same web server. To run multiple applications, you must include a Procfile in your source bundle. For a full example application, see dotnet-core-linux-multiple-apps.zip.
