Eric Erhardt eec324a844 Move all CLI libraries to be single-TFM targeting netstandard1.3 where possible.
Microsoft.Extensions.Testing.Abstractions is the only one I couldn't move to netstandard1.3 that should be.  But this library should be removed with the new `dotnet test` strategy.

NAME

dotnet-publish - Packs the application and all of its dependencies into a folder getting it ready for publishing

SYNOPSIS

dotnet publish [--framework] [--runtime] [--build-base-path] [--output] [--version-suffix] [--configuration] [<project>]

DESCRIPTION

dotnet publish compiles the application, reads through its dependencies specified in the project.json file and publishes the resulting set of files to a directory.

Depending on the type of portable app, the resulting directory will contain the following:

  1. Portable application - application's intermediate language (IL) code and all of application's managed dependencies.
    • Portable application with native dependencies - same as above with a sub-directory for the supported platform of each native dependency.
  2. Self-contained application - same as above plus the entire runtime for the targeted platform.

The above types are covered in more details in the types of portable applications topic.

OPTIONS

[project]

dotnet publish needs access to the project.json file to work. If it is not specified on invocation via [project], project.json in the current directory will be the default.
If no project.json can be found, dotnet publish will throw an error.

-f, --framework [FID]

Publishes the application for a given framework identifier (FID). If not specified, FID is read from project.json. In no valid framework is found, the command will throw an error. If multiple valid frameworks are found, the command will publish for all valid frameworks.

-r, --runtime [RID]

Publishes the application for a given runtime.

-b, --build-base-path [DIR]

Directory in which to place temporary outputs.

-o, --output

Specify the path where to place the directory. If not specified, it will default to ./bin/[configuration]/[framework]/ for portable applications or ./bin/[configuration]/[framework]/[runtime] for self-contained applications.

--version-suffix [VERSION_SUFFIX]

Defines what * should be replaced with in the version field in the project.json file.

-c, --configuration [Debug|Release]

Configuration to use when publishing. The default value is Debug.

EXAMPLES

dotnet publish

Publishes an application using the framework found in project.json. If project.json contains runtimes node, publish for the RID of the current platform.

dotnet publish ~/projects/app1/project.json

Publishes the application using the specified project.json.

dotnet publish --framework netcoreapp1.0

Publishes the current application using the netcoreapp1.0 framework.

dotnet publish --framework netcoreapp1.0 --runtime osx.10.11-x64

Publishes the current application using the netcoreapp1.0 framework and runtime for OS X 10.10. This RID has to exist in the project.json runtimes node.
