Configure build and start for ASP.NET Core

Build and start for an ASP.NET Core app on Ample. Verified on ASP.NET Core: the app built and started with the documented commands and answered on its public HTTPS URL. Build and start:

dotnet publish -c Release -o out

in the builder, then

dotnet <your-entry-file>.dll

on the dotnet-10 template with ASPNETCORE_URLS bound to PORT.

Prerequisites

• An ASP.NET Core project (dotnet publish -c Release -o out in the builder, then dotnet .dll on the dotnet-10 template with ASPNETCORE_URLS bound to PORT)
• An Ample account token with servers:write

Workflow Steps

1. Build and start
   dotnet publish -c Release -o out in the builder, then dotnet <your-entry-file>.dll on the dotnet-10 template with ASPNETCORE_URLS bound to PORT; the server must bind 0.0.0.0 on PORT.

2. Deploy
   Run the synchronous deploy once and read the result.
   ample deploy . --name <your-app-name> --public

3. Verify
   Fetch the live URL on the example; on failure read the build and runtime logs.
   ample logs --kind build

Tested Configuration

• Template: dotnet-10
• Runtime: dotnet
• Size: s-1vcpu-1gb
• Build Command: dotnet publish -c Release -o out
• Start Command: ASPNETCORE_URLS=http://0.0.0.0:$PORT dotnet out/$(basename $(ls out/*.runtimeconfig.json | head -n 1) .runtimeconfig.json).dll

Limitations

• Verified on the dotnet-10 template at s-1vcpu-1gb; other sizes and ASP.NET Core major versions are not verified.
• Region, compliance attestations, and request-duration limits are unknown and not claimed.

Cost Estimate

• Currency: USD
• Monthly Amount: $5.00
• Basis: size prices from pricing.toml (loaded by the API) at build revision 1ac5595375130d45290090e82ed0f554ccd45405-dirty
• Note: Always-on monthly price of the tested sizes; apps auto-pause when idle.

Evidence Summary
