How to debug cake project in vscode?

问题

Please provide cake project debugging steps with VS Code in Visual Studio 2015 not installed machine. I could not find any debugging steps in cake documentation.

回答1:

Install Cake.CoreCLR NuGet package to your tools folder
Install Cake Extension for Visual Studio Code
Set up .NET Core debugger in Visual Studio Code. See http://aka.ms/vscclrdebugger for details
Open the directory containing your Cake files in Visual Studio Code

Create file .vscode/launch.json and add the following content (assuming your Cake file is build.cake)

{
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": [
        {
            "name": ".NET Core Launch (console)",
            "type": "coreclr",
            "request": "launch",
            "program": "${workspaceRoot}/tools/Cake.CoreCLR/Cake.dll",
            "args": [
                "${workspaceRoot}/build.cake",
                "--debug",
                "--verbosity=diagnostic"
            ],
            "cwd": "${workspaceRoot}",
            "stopAtEntry": true,
            "externalConsole": false
        }
    ]
}

Open your Cake file and add a breakpoint by hitting F9
Hit F5 to start debugging

Note VSCode debugging will only work using .NET Core, so any addin / reference must be available for .NET Core.

For debugging standard standard .NET Cake use Visual Studio, which is described in this blog post by Gary Ewan Park http://cakebuild.net/blog/2016/05/debug-cake-file
