This documentation provides a comprehensive step-by-step guide for expert developers on how to build and start the stevedunn/vogen.serialization project using C# and PowerShell.

Prerequisites

Before starting the build process, ensure you have the following prerequisites installed:

Cloning the Repository

Begin by cloning the stevedunn/vogen.serialization repository from GitHub. Open PowerShell and run the command:

git clone https://github.com/stevedunn/vogen.serialization.git
cd vogen.serialization

Building the Project

Once the repository is cloned, you can build the project using the .NET CLI.

  1. Open PowerShell.

  2. Navigate to the project root directory if not already there.

    cd path\to\vogen.serialization
    
  3. Run the following command to restore the dependencies:

    dotnet restore
    
  4. Next, build the project by executing:

    dotnet build
    

    This command compiles the project and its dependencies into a set of binaries.

Running the Project

After building the project successfully, you can start it by running the following command:

dotnet run --project path\to\vogen.serialization\YourProject.csproj

Replace YourProject.csproj with the specific project file you want to start.

Example Command

For example, if the project file is located in the src folder, your command would look something like this:

dotnet run --project src\Vogen.Serialization.csproj

Testing the Project

To run tests in the project, you can use the following command:

dotnet test

This will compile the test project and execute all tests, displaying the results in the console.

Conclusion

Building and starting the stevedunn/vogen.serialization project involves cloning the repository, restoring dependencies, building the project, and running it through the .NET CLI. Make sure to replace paths appropriately depending on your directory structure.
