Migrating .net4.5 library to .net standard

Project:
URL: https://github.com/rikimaru0345/Ceras
Synopsis: A binary serializer, similar to MessagePack-CSharp

What am i looking for? / Special Requirements
On the most basic level:

1. I want people to be able to use my library on every platform, not just .net4.5.
   However I don't know how to do it. Would I need multiple project files? Or is a single .net standard 2.0 project enough so that users on .net4.x, Unity(mono .net4.x equivalent), and .net core can use it?

2. Some considerations about required APIs.
   The main thing to consider is that Ceras heavily uses System.Linq.Expressions.
   I'm pretty sure the newest .net standard supports everything Ceras uses, but maybe there might be some complications?

3. At the moment I'm using AppVeyor to compile, and create a nuget package (which is then automatically published to nuget). I guess the nuspec file would have to be changed to create multiple packages depending on the target framework? Or maybe a single .net standard package would be enough so everyone can use it?

4. I'm aware that there are some APIs related to Type, MemberInfo, etc... that have changed, but I'm confident that updating them myself should be no problem!

What problems stopped me from doing this myself before? (OPTIONAL)
No previous experience with nuget, and only minimal the .net core / standard ecosystem.
I'd love to learn more about all of those things but at the moment I don't have as much time to devote to this as I'd like to.

When publishing how do I target specific .NET Core Runtimes?

Topic
Target specific .NET Core Runtimes, specifically the win RID because that is the only platform I am targeting.

On my CI/CD server I publish my applications with this command:

dotnet publish -c Release -o ..\publish

It outputs a runtimes directory with the following sub-directories:

    - publish/runtimes/
       - debian.8-x64/
       - fedora.23-x64/
       - fedora.24-x64/
       - opensuse.13.2-x64/
       - opensuse.42.1-x64/
       - osx/
       - osx.10.10-x64/
       - rhel.7-x64/
       - ubuntu.14.04-x64/
       - ubuntu.16.04-x64/
       - ubuntu.16.10-x64/
       - unix/
       - win/ 

Is there a way to configure the project to only output the win runtime folder?

Scope
I only plan to publish this application on Windows 2016 Server so the OSX/Linux/Unix runtimes folders are not necessary. In several cases these runtimes folders contain known vulnerable dlls which lead to false positive OSA scans.

Why do i request this?
I have tried adding the win10-x64 and win10-x86 RIDs in the my project file's element:

<RuntimeIdentifiers>win10-x64;win10-x86</RuntimeIdentifiers>

The output of adding the RIDs to my csproj files is the same as if I did not specify the RIDs in those files.

When I run CI/CD command example

dotnet publish -c Release -r win10-x86 -o ..\publish

I believe it creates a self-contained deployment. As my publish directory goes from being 55MB to 120MB and from 237 files to 482 files. It also matches the output if I included the --self-contained flag.

Thank you for your time and help!

How to verify my SourceLink configuration works

Topic
SourceLink - how to verify if it works

Scope
Library author wants to add sourcelink support in a simple .NET Standard project.

Why do i request this?
Lots of people are confused about how to verify if their sourcelink changes actually work - This is catalysed by the nature of PDBs and how they work.

Consultation on .NET project internals

Project:
We're @snyksec, and we provide a service that keeps developer's projects secure! We don't really need help migrating anything, but we would appreciate the opportunity to reach out to domain experts and discuss the .NET ecosystem and our approach to it.

What am i looking for?

• Better understand .NET concepts (framework vs core, targetFrameworks, system dependencies, etc.)
• Exchange ideas on how we can better analyze the dependencies of any .NET project, both on a dev environment (dotnet cli, msbuild, etc.) as well as remotely (say, just a .csproj file).

Issues i have had doing it by myself: (OPTIONAL)
We already provide an extensive offering around .NET as part of our service, seeking to learn more and improve!

Special Requirements
We're a commercial entity, so some NDA-related paperwork will most likely be involved... In exchange, we act as a commercial entity and pay for consultation! :)

DesignTimeMapper

Project:
URL: https://github.com/AlistairClark7/DesignTimeMapper
Synopsis: Aims to provide a command line tool that pre-processes .CS Files to generate mappings at design-time.

What am i looking for?

Hey, I'd be interested in this! My project is not very well known but I've not had time to port to .NET Core.

What problems stopped me from doing this myself before? (OPTIONAL)
No time yet.

Special Requirements

• Application Model: C# Pre-Processor / MSBuild Task maybe?

LibVLCSharp

Project:
URL: https://code.videolan.org/videolan/LibVLCSharp
Description: .NET libVLC Wrapping library

What am i looking for?

It is multi-targeted already, but we could use a hand on scripting, CI/CD, SemVer and SourceLink.

Special Requirements

• Native Dependencies
• Versioning dictated by upstream library
