Dotnet Restore on Travis

Environments
1

I have a microservice based application within one solution but it has several projects within the solution - 5 exactly. I have some xUnit tests that I’d like to build on Travis CI, however I’m getting The command "dotnet restore" failed and exited with 1 during error. This is my very first time working with Travis.

Is it possible it’s a runtime error?

Here is travis.yml file

language: csharp
mono: none
dotnet: 3.1.202
sudo: required

before_install:
  - sudo apt-get install nuget
install:
  - dotnet restore
branches:
    only:
     - Testing

script:
 - dotnet build
 - dotnet test TestCore/TestCore.csproj"

The output on Travis:

It’s not a runtime error, you just need to tell dotnet build what you want to build. For example you can call dotnet build via

dotnet build OnlineRetailer.sln

As a side note, I don’t really think this is necessary in the yaml config:

sudo apt-get install nuget

The SDK is self-contained and already contains the prerequisites to do dotnet restore . If you need anymore help, be sure to reach out and I’ll help you. :).

This makes most sense now. Thank you, I will try.
