# What is Mono
|
|
|
|
Sponsored by Xamarin, Mono is an open source implementation of Microsoft's .NET Framework based on the ECMA standards for C# and the Common Language Runtime. A growing family of solutions and an active and enthusiastic contributing community is helping position Mono to become the leading choice for development of cross platform applications.

# How to use this image
|
|
|
|
This image will run stand-alone Mono console apps.
|
|
|
|
## Create a `Dockerfile` in your Mono app project
|
|
|
|
This example Dockerfile will run an executable called `TestingConsoleApp.exe`.
|
|
|
|
FROM mono:3.10-onbuild
|
|
CMD [ "mono", "./TestingConsoleApp.exe" ]
|
|
|
|
Place this file in the root of your app, next to the `.sln` solution file. Modify the exectuable name to match what you want to run.
|
|
|
|
This image includes `ONBUILD` triggers that adds your app source code to `/usr/src/app/source`, restores NuGet packages and compiles the app, placing the output in `/usr/src/app/build`.
|
|
|
|
With the Dockerfile in place, you can build and run a Docker image with your app:
|
|
|
|
docker build -t my-app .
|
|
docker run my-app
|
|
|
|
You should see any output from your app now.

# Image Variants
|
|
|
|
The `mono` images come in many flavors, each designed for a specific use case.
|
|
|
|
## `mono:<version>`
|
|
|
|
This is the defacto image. If you are unsure about what your needs are, you probably want to use this one. It is designed to be used both as a throw away container (mount your source code and start the container to start your app), as well as the base to build other images off of.
|
|
|
|
## `mono:onbuild`
|
|
|
|
This image makes building derivative images easier. For most use cases, creating a `Dockerfile` in the base of your project directory with the line `FROM mono:onbuild` will be enough to create a stand-alone image for your project.
|
|
|
|
While the `onbuild` variant is really useful for "getting off the ground running" (zero to Dockerized in a short period of time), it's not recommended for long-term usage within a project due to the lack of control over *when* the `ONBUILD` triggers fire (see also [`docker/docker#5714`](https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/5714), [`docker/docker#8240`](https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/8240), [`docker/docker#11917`](https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/11917)).
|
|
|
|
Once you've got a handle on how your project functions within Docker, you'll probably want to adjust your `Dockerfile` to inherit from a non-`onbuild` variant and copy the commands from the `onbuild` variant `Dockerfile` (moving the `ONBUILD` lines to the end and removing the `ONBUILD` keywords) into your own file so that you have tighter control over them and more transparency for yourself and others looking at your `Dockerfile` as to what it does. This also makes it easier to add additional requirements as time goes on (such as installing more packages before performing the previously-`ONBUILD` steps).
