As of preview3 dotnet new produces a csproj, and both dotnet restore and dotnet build fail against a project.json and/or an xproj.
For instance, running dotnet restore against a directory that has both a project.json and an xproj gives this error.
...xproj(7,3): error MSB4019: The imported project "C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\1.0.0-preview3-004056\Extensions\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v14.0\DotNet\Microsoft.DotNet.Props" was not found. Confirm that the path in the declaration is correct, and that the file exists on disk.
Further, running it against a directory that has only a project.json gives this error.
MSBUILD : error MSB1003: Specify a project or solution file. The current working directory does not contain a project or solution file.
Without using Visual Studio, how can we convert an existing project.json and/or xproj to a csproj?
There is a dotnet migrate command.
The dotnet migrate command will migrate a valid Preview 2 project.json based project to a valid Preview 3 csproj project.
We can find detailed help on this command by running dotnet migrate -h (even though dotnet -h does not list the command).

This is pretty easy to replicate but also code here:

create an empty wpf project using .NET7
create a publish profile for ClickOnce
publish via command line (not visual studio)
Publish profile is almost totally standard (view here)

dotnet publish PublishError.csproj -p:PublishProfile=ClickOnceProfile
Subsequent error:

I have the latest SDKs installed and VS2022 up to date. This only happens via command line - I am able to publish from Visual Studio (I am setting up devops, so require command line).
This happens regardless of adding nuget package for Microsoft.Build.Tasks.Core. Note however nuget package v15.1.0.0 is not available - I have tried 15.1.548 and the latest instead.
Totally at a loss! Any ideas very welcome.
Thanks vm
During the tests with your project and files, I finally managed to publish it successfully with the command dotnet publish PublishError.csproj -p:PublishProfile=FolderProfile.
Here is the document for dotnet publish, as is referred,
The preceding example uses the FolderProfile.pubxml file that is found
in the <project_folder>/Properties/PublishProfiles folder. If you
specify a path and file extension when setting the PublishProfile
property, they are ignored. MSBuild by default looks in the
Properties/PublishProfiles folder and assumes the pubxml file
extension.
And I also succeeded with dotnet publish with your project.
==============================
update on 11/19
So I suppose that the issue is resulted from your definition for -p:PublishProfile=ClickOnceProfile,it will change the path where this command would search for the publish file
A partial answer as my workaround for anyone struggling with a similar problem:
I have found it impossible to do this with the dotnet cli but I can do it with MSBuild if I specifically target 17.4 (VS2022). By default, my Azure DevOps Server 2020 capability is the 2019 MSBuild (15.X), so I have to be explicit:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Professional\Msbuild\Current\Bin\MSBuild.exe" /restore /Verbosity:m /t:Publish /p:RuntimeIdentifier=win-x64 /p:configuration=Release /p:PublishProfile=ClickOnceProfile
This works - so in my pipeline I have created a batch file which runs this, then I copy the files to my ClickOnce location.
Not ideal, but a working pipeline.
Interesting side note - this dotnet cli command which should be idenitical (and indeed uses the correct 17.4 MSBuild) - does not work (with the same error):
dotnet msbuild -target:Publish -property:RuntimeIdentifiers=win-x64;Configuration=Release;PublishProfile=ClickOnceProfile
I'm building an ASP.NET Core 2.0 Web API application that is hosted in an Ubuntu environment. So far, I've had great success getting things building and running (for the .NET Core app) in Ubuntu.
For the database, I have a SqlProj included in my solution. The project includes typical things such as tables, SPs, and pre/post deployment scripts. I'm using the following command (on my Windows-based dev machine) to build and deploy this project:
msbuild .\MyProject.DB.sqlproj /t:Build /t:Publish /P:SqlPublishProfilePath="./PublishProfiles/MyProject.DB.publish.xml"
When I take this approach, everything builds and deploys properly; however, since I will be taking advantage of the .NET Core CLI commands + CI/CD that targets an Ubuntu environment, I'd like to do something more like:
dotnet msbuild .\MyProject.DB.sqlproj /t:Build /t:Publish /P:SqlPublishProfilePath="./PublishProfiles/MyProject.DB.publish.xml"
In Windows, I immediately get the error:
error MSB4019: The imported project "C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\2.1.4\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v11.0\SSDT\Microsoft.Data.Tools.Schema.SqlTasks.targets" was not found. Confirm that the path in the <Import> declaration is correct, and that the file exists on disk.
Basically, what I'm asking is how to successfully build and deploy a SqlProj project in an Ubuntu environment. I've tried Googling, but I have had zero luck thus far. All of the similar issues that I've found were for individuals who were editing their .proj file to target their VS folder's SSDT. All of these individuals were fixing the issue in Windows. This approach will not work in Ubuntu, since the targets file uses Windows registry keys.
EDIT: I'm aware that SSDT is needed in order to perform such a deployment using MSBuild. I've found no evidence that installing/using SSDT is even possible in Ubuntu. If it is not, perhaps there is an alternative solution?
FYI, I'm aware that using a code-first approach with EF Core is possible. I'm attempting to take the raw SP approach (along with leveraging indexes) and keep track of all of my code using SqlProj instead. This will all be stored and CI/CDed from a Git repo.
You can use this NuGet package to deploy without installing SSDT https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.Data.Tools.Msbuild
I don't know if it will run on Ubuntu or integrate at all with the dotnet cli
My 2020 Solution
I would like to revisit this in 2020 with an updated answer to my original question.
I have taken a different approach to building an deploying SQL Server projects. My current approach is to build a pipeline that uses a vs2017-win2016 agent and use this to build a .dacpac. From there, you build a deployment pipeline to deploy the dacpac (from your artifact drop) out to the SQL Server instance.
This approach better accommodates DevOps methodologies and removes the manual process associated with my previous solution.
You can read more about this here:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/apps/aspnet/build-aspnet-dacpac?view=azure-devops
I can't speak to whether or not this will work on Ubuntu, but we recently got through this on a Windows build machine that does not have SSDT installed, using the NuGet package mentioned above. The breakthrough came from piecing together the details in the article below, specifically that using the SDK with MSBuild needed to have environment variables set in order to work.
https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/ssdt/2016/08/22/part-5-use-your-own-build-and-deployment-agent/
With that added info, we installed the NuGet package in the root of the solution folder and then wrote a build script in PowerShell. The script sets the environment variables first and then calls MSBuild on the SqlProj file with the appropriate output directory. We don't specifically publish at that point, but instead publish the artifact to Octopus Deploy in our workflow which does the actual deployment.
Again, not sure it will help on Ubuntu, but thought the additional detail might be useful.
As an alternative, it is possible to achieve this with dotnet cli and sqlpackage as explained here using an MSBuild Sdk.
You basically have a database project. Let's call it "DatabaseProject".
You create a new project which is a .NET standard c# library that you can call "DatabaseProject.Build".
Then you can configure you DatabaseProject.Build.csproj as such:
<Project Sdk="MSBuild.Sdk.SqlProj/1.11.4">
<PropertyGroup>
<TargetFramework>netstandard2.0</TargetFramework>
<Configurations>Debug;Release</Configurations>
</PropertyGroup>
<ItemGroup>
<Content Include="..\DatabaseProject\**\*.sql" />
<Content Remove="..\DatabaseProject\bin\*.sql" />
<Content Remove="..\DatabaseProject\**\*.PostDeployment.sql" />
<PostDeploy Include="..\DatabaseProject\**\*.PostDeployment.sql" />
</ItemGroup>
</Project>
Be Aware The version used V1.11.4 is the one that supports the current .NET SDK shipped with visual studio at the time of the edit of this post. Check out the github repo to get the latest nuget version for your projet.
Using dotnet build will generate a dacpac that you will be able to use with either dotnet publish or sqlpackage.
You can then publish to you SqlServer instance.
If you're like me using a linux runner in your CI, you'll probably need SqlServer authentification method and then run either
sqlpackage /Action:Publish \
/SourceFile:\"DatabaseProject.Build/bin/Debug/netstandard2.0/DatabaseProject.Build.dacpac\" \
/TargetServerName:MyDatabaseServerName \
/TargetDatabaseName:MyDatabaseName \
/TargetUser:Username\
/TargetPassword:Password
or using a profile generated by visual studio :
sqlpackage /Action:Publish /Profile:\"DatabaseProject/PublishProfile/MyProfile.publish.xml\" /SourceFile:\"DatabaseProject.Build/bin/Debug/netstandard2.0/DatabaseProject.Build.dacpac\"
or
dotnet publish /p:TargetServerName=MyServerName /p:TargetDatabaseName=MyDatabseName /p:TargetUser=<username> /p:TargetPassword=<password>
Azure Data Studio now has an extension that lets you build database projects (sqlproj) using the dotnet tool. The brains behind building the project lies in the SQL Server Tools package, which is where the extension gets the required "BuildDirectory" DLL and targets dependencies.
Though not documented, if you want to set this up completely headless outside of Azure Data Studio, you can follow their CLI guide, https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/azure-data-studio/extensions/sql-database-project-extension-build-from-command-line?view=sql-server-ver15, but instead extract the necessary files from the RHEL release in https://github.com/microsoft/sqltoolsservice/releases and then follow the rest of the extension's documentation. Here is a working Dockerfile that demonstrates the approach:
FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/sdk:6.0
WORKDIR /app
RUN apt-get update \
&& apt-get install -y curl
# SSDT dlls and targets file used by Azure Data Studio Extension can be found in the SQL Tools Service project
RUN curl -sSL -o /tmp/sqltools.tar.gz https://github.com/microsoft/sqltoolsservice/releases/download/v3.0.0-release.181/Microsoft.SqlTools.ServiceLayer-rhel-x64-net6.0.tar.gz
# Extract files that are required per https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/azure-data-studio/extensions/sql-database-project-extension-build-from-command-line?view=sql-server-ver15
RUN mkdir /tmp/sqltools && tar -xzf /tmp/sqltools.tar.gz -C /tmp/sqltools && \
mkdir /app/BuildDirectory && cd /tmp/sqltools && cp \
Microsoft.Data.SqlClient.dll \
Microsoft.Data.Tools.Schema.Sql.dll \
Microsoft.Data.Tools.Schema.SqlTasks.targets \
Microsoft.Data.Tools.Schema.Tasks.Sql.dll \
Microsoft.Data.Tools.Utilities.dll \
Microsoft.SqlServer.Dac.dll \
Microsoft.SqlServer.Dac.Extensions.dll \
Microsoft.SqlServer.TransactSql.ScriptDom.dll \
Microsoft.SqlServer.Types.dll \
System.ComponentModel.Composition.dll \
System.IO.Packaging.dll \
/app/BuildDirectory && \
rm -r /tmp/sqltools
#dotnet build your-database-project.sqlproj /p:NetCoreBuild=true /p:NETCoreTargetsPath="/app/BuildDirectory"
The commented command at the end shows what you could run inside the container in the directory with your database project.
This can also then be combined with a container utilizing sqlpackage to implement a full dacpac build and publish automation toolset.
As mentioned, the easiest way to build DacPac file on a linux agent is done via MSBuild.Sdk.SqlProj
Go to your database project directory in parallel to .sqlproj file create a directory like DB.Build under it create DB.Build.csproj copy.pase the content as below
<Project Sdk="MSBuild.Sdk.SqlProj/1.1.0"> <!-- This will pull in the required tools and dependencies to build a .dacpac with .NET Core -->
<PropertyGroup>
<TargetFramework>netstandard2.0</TargetFramework>
</PropertyGroup>
<ItemGroup>
<Content Include="..\src\DB\masterdata\**\*.sql" /> <!-- link in the new .csproj to the .sql scripts in your existing database project -->
</ItemGroup>
</Project>
After run you will see dacpac file appears under DB.Build/bin/Release/netstandard2.0/DB.Build.dacpac

I installed dotent core on Ubuntu v16.04. Problem is when I try to use dotnet user-secrets it says:
No executable found matching command "dotnet-user-secrets"
dotnet core version:
1.0.0-preview2-003131
dotnet screenshot:
To use the Secret Manager in .NET Core, you will have to install it to the project:
Add the line Microsoft.Extensions.SecretManager.Tools to the tools section of your project.json
Run dotnet restore
You can find more information about it in the official .NET documentation.
When I added that package through nuget it added it to the "dependencies" section. So I had to move the line below:
"Microsoft.Extensions.SecretManager.Tools": "1.1.0-preview4-final"
out of the "dependencies" section and into the "tools" section in the project.json file. Then I ran dotnet restore and then it worked. Just make sure you run those commands on the same directory where project.json file is located.
I want to build SSIS project .dtsx files
Even I want to build SSRS project .rdl files
I don't want to take IDE support.
Because i want to Continuous Integration using Jenkins so it required to write build script for all the ssis and ssrs.
I selected gradle as build tool.
The Build process should be like
Clean (delete some directory)
Build (compile the source code of ssis and ssrs project)
Package (wrap all compiled code in specific archive)
I want to do it by Gradle or Command line
But i didn't find any article to do this by manual or some script.
Please help me .
Thanks

I'm attempting to build a .sqlproj on a TFS Build Server. I've followed the instructions here:
http://sqlproj.com/index.php/2012/03/headless-msbuild-support-for-ssdt-sqlproj-projects/
which I was directed to from here:
How to build .sqlproj projects on a build server?
But I still cannot build. The error is:

The SqlTasks.targets file, used by the SQL project, references this:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common7\IDE\Extensions\Microsoft\SQLDB\Dac\120\Microsoft.Data.Tools.Schema.Tasks.Sql.11.dll
which in turn references the invalid version mentioned above.
However, the files installed by the process in the link above don't install this version. They do install version 10.3.0.0, which is referenced by
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\110\DAC\bin\Microsoft.Data.Tools.Schema.Tasks.Sql.12.dll
but this file is not the one used by the .targets file.
I don't know what the numbers at the end of this dll mean, but it seems odd to me that the one ending 12.dll references an earlier version of the one ending 11.dll.
I'm using Visual Studio 2013 and SQL Server 2012 - neither of which are installed on the build server, which I believe is the recommended situation. I don't know what the IDE folder is, or why the .targets file is using it.
I've spent about two days now trying to get this to build, but I'm out of ideas. Anyone know what's going on?
If you are running VS2013 SSDT is built into VS as long as you select it on the install screen. Install VS2013 with SSDT onto your build server. create a build definition and under Process > Build > Advanced Add the following to the MSBuild arguments to build the sql proj
/t:Build
if you have a publish profile and want to test publishing to SQL then add the publish switch and provide the link to the profile file
/t:Publish /p:SqlPublishProfilePath=MyDB.publish.xml.
this will publish the db to the server specified in the publish file.
the publish profile file can be created by opening the project in Visual Studio, right click on the project and select publish. Select save once you are happy with the publish options and then check in the file to source control so the build can find it, (project Root).
I was having this issue building a SQL Server project on an Azure DevOps CI/CD pipeline. None of the pre-built build tasks would work for me. And it is not possible to install a VS instance on the build server, I guess.
I solved this by avoiding to add a SQL Server project to the solution.
I achieved this by using an MSBuild SDK, capable of producing a SQL Server Data-Tier Application package (.dacpac) from the set of SQL scripts. By adding this second project to the solution, I managed to continue taking advantage of linking the project to a live database through SQL Server Object Explorer on Visual Studio. I gave a more detailed explanation in this answer.
