10. Select the pipeline build platform (Aspnet core) .NET Framework

11. Write the pipeline code similar to the given below

# ASP.NET Core (.NET Framework)
# Build and test ASP.NET Core projects targeting the full .NET Framework.
# Add steps that publish symbols, save build artifacts, and more:
# https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/devops/pipelines/languages/dotnet-core
 
# Trigger indicates that whenever there is a change in the master branch then
# this pipeline will be executed automatically
trigger:
– master
 # VM image is windows latest
pool:
  vmImage: ‘windows-latest’
 # variables are defined whichare used in the tasks
variables:
  solution: ‘**/*.sln’
  buildPlatform: ‘Any CPU’
  buildConfiguration: ‘Release’
 # job with multiple steps and steps are furhter having one or multiple tasks
 # NuGetToolInstaller@1 it is inbuilt step to download NuGet tool on the VM
 # NuGetToolInstaller@2 it is inbuilt step to Configure the NugetCommand for the solution (defined as variable)
 # VSBuild@1 to build the solution using MSBuild with given parameters
steps:
– task: NuGetToolInstaller@1
 
– task: NuGetCommand@2
  inputs:
    restoreSolution: ‘$(solution)’
 
– task: VSBuild@1
  inputs:
    solution: ‘$(solution)’
    msbuildArgs: ‘/p:DeployOnBuild=true /p:WebPublishMethod=Package /p:PackageAsSingleFile=true /p:SkipInvalidConfigurations=true /p:DesktopBuildPackageLocation=”$(build.artifactStagingDirectory)\WebApp.zip” /p:DeployIisAppPath=”Default Web Site”‘
    platform: ‘$(buildPlatform)’
    configuration: ‘$(buildConfiguration)’

11. Save and run the pipeline.

Note: Saving will commit azure-pipelines.yml to the repository.
