Reportgenerator: .NET 5 support

[eduherminio]

Hi @danielpalme.

Any plans/ETA for allowing the tool to work with .NET 5?
My use case will be not having to install .NET Core 3.1.x when using the GitHub Action.

Thanks!

Hi @eduherminio ,

yes I will add support for .NET 5 within the next days.
I want it so be ready once .NET 5 is finally released.

I made the necessary code changes to support .NET 5.

The publishing of all packages is done via Azure DevOps.
I hope the Azure DevOps build agents get MSBuild 16.8 soon, since it's required for .NET 5.
As soon as it gets available, I will publish the packages.

Azure DevOps is still missing MSBuild 16.8.
I decided to update ReportGenerator manually. Could you please try release 4.8.0:

• https://www.nuget.org/packages/ReportGenerator/4.8.0
• https://www.nuget.org/packages/dotnet-reportgenerator-globaltool/4.8.0
• https://www.nuget.org/packages/ReportGenerator.Core/4.8.0
• https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Palmmedia.reportgenerator
• https://github.com/marketplace/actions/reportgenerator
• https://github.com/danielpalme/ReportGenerator/releases/tag/v4.8.0

I tried the Azure DevOps extension and it's still not working for me.

• Commit.
• Empty report.
• Previous commit report.

I checked that I have v4.8.0 recently installed in my organization, so it's the new version. Do I have to wait for any specific coverlet versions?

Bear with me, that's something else, I'll try the GiHub Action during the weekend.

GH Action, AzureDevOps app and dotnet global tool v4.8.0 tested and working as expected 👍
