NetPack.Build

Bundle your web assets as part of the .NET build.

Website · Documentation · Source · CLI on npm

This package wires netpack into MSBuild: on dotnet build (or publish) it bundles and optimizes your JavaScript / TypeScript / JSX / CSS / HTML entry point straight into wwwroot — ideal for ASP.NET Core apps.

It's built on NetPack.Core and ships a cross-platform, pure-managed image processor (ImageSharp) — no SkiaSharp, no native/OS dependency. Everything the task needs is bundled, so it adds no package references to your project.

Install

dotnet add package NetPack.Build

Use

Point it at an entry file and build:

<PropertyGroup>
  <NetpackEntry>ClientApp/src/index.html</NetpackEntry>
</PropertyGroup>

dotnet build
# -> wwwroot/index.html, wwwroot/index.js, wwwroot/styles.css, …

That's it — bundling runs after Build whenever NetpackEntry is set.

Options

All are MSBuild properties with sensible defaults:

Property	Default	Purpose
`NetpackEntry`	—	entry file (enables the integration when set)
`NetpackOutputDirectory`	`$(MSBuildProjectDirectory)/wwwroot`	output folder
`NetpackMinify`	`true`	minify + tree-shake
`NetpackSourceMaps`	`false`	emit source maps
`NetpackFormat`	`esm`	`esm` / `cjs` / `umd` / `systemjs`
`NetpackPlatform`	`web`	`web` / `node` / `deno`
`NetpackEntryNames`	`[name]`	naming template, e.g. `[name]-[hash]`
`NetpackPublicPath`	—	base URL/path for emitted-file references

Keep dependencies external with an item group:

<ItemGroup>
  <NetpackExternal Include="react" />
  <NetpackExternal Include="react-dom" />
</ItemGroup>

Notes

No native dependency. Image resizing/re-encoding uses ImageSharp (Apache-2.0, the 2.1.x line). Formats it doesn't cover (.avif, .ico) are copied as-is.
Build with the .NET SDK. The task targets .NET 8, so build via dotnet build / dotnet msbuild (the SDK's .NET-based MSBuild).
Node.js is only needed for the optional Sass/Less/PostCSS/Svelte features; plain JS/TS/JSX/CSS/HTML bundling needs nothing extra.
Prefer the API directly? Use NetPack.Core. Prefer a CLI? npm i -D netpack.
