.NET Bumper ⛐📦⤴️✨

Overview

.NET Bumper is a .NET Global Tool to upgrade projects to a newer version of .NET.

Bumper helps you upgrade your .NET projects to a newer version by taking care of some of the steps required to move from one version to another. Bumper supports upgrading to both Long Term Support (LTS) and Standard Term Support (STS) versions of .NET, and the latest preview versions of .NET. 🚀

Steps the tool can perform on your behalf include:

• Updating the .NET SDK version in global.json 🧑‍💻
• Upgrading the Target Framework of your project files ⚙️
• Upgrading .NET, ASP.NET Core and EFCore NuGet packages to the appropriate versions 📦
• Updating image tags in Dockerfiles 🐳
• Running dotnet test to validate the upgrade 🧪

Quick Start

To install the tool and upgrade a .NET 6 or later project to the latest Long Term Support (LTS) version of .NET, run the following command:

dotnet tool install --global MartinCostello.DotNetBumper
dotnet bumper .

Usage

For a full list of options, run dotnet bumper --help.
