.NET CI Workflow Skill

Overview

This skill covers .NET CI patterns for build/test/scans and optional publish/package steps.

The Dojo360 workflow (dotnet-ci.yml) exists, but for new implementations the recommended approach is to use the UHG CI Workflows reusable workflow from uhg-pipelines/ci-workflows.

Workflow Reference

Recommended (Use This)

Repository: uhg-pipelines/ci-workflows
Workflow: .github/workflows/dotnet-ci.yml@v2

Legacy (Dojo360)

Repository: dojo360/pipelines-workflows
Workflow: .github/workflows/dotnet-ci.yml
Docs: https://github.com/dojo360/pipelines-workflows/tree/main/web/dotnet-ci/index.md

Key Features

• Runs .NET build + unit tests
• Supports configurable .NET SDK versions
• Optional dotnet publish for deployable outputs
• Optional dotnet pack args for versioning/packages
• Artifactory integration via jfrog-project-key
• Optional Docker build/publish if you pass Docker inputs

Prerequisites

• .NET project in the repo (e.g., *.csproj)
• Artifactory project/repositories provisioned
• If building containers:
  • Dockerfile must use Optum golden images (no public base images)
  • Runner must have Docker available

Common Inputs (UHG reusable workflow)

Input	Type	Description
jfrog-project-key	string	JFrog project key (routes to the correct SaaS Artifactory repos)
working-directory	string	Where your .NET solution/project lives (default: .)
dotnet-version	string	.NET SDK version (e.g., 8.0.x)
dotnet-publish	boolean	Enable dotnet publish
dotnet-publish-project-path	string	Path to the project to publish
dotnet-pack-args	string	Additional args for packing/versioning
docker-tags	string	Image tag(s) to publish when doing Docker builds
docker-context	string	Docker build context
docker-dockerfile	string	Dockerfile path

Secrets

UHG reusable workflows generally handle Artifactory auth via OIDC + EPL actions, but you may still need:

• Repo/org secrets required by your org’s scanning configuration
• Tokens for any opt-in scanners your org uses

Templates

See ready-to-copy examples in .github/skills/github-workflows-dojo360-dotnet-ci/templates/:

• basic-dotnet-ci.yml
• dotnet-ci-with-publish.yml
• dotnet-ci-with-docker-build.yml

Notes / Gotchas

• If you publish, set dotnet-publish-project-path to the correct *.csproj (especially in monorepos).
• If you build container images, ensure your Dockerfile uses Optum golden images (see .github/instructions/docker.instructions.md).
