How to check the version of .NET Core in a deployed app?












1















I am trying to interrogate the version of the .NET Core that my web app was compiled with. The app is deployed on a Raspberry Pi 2 with Linux 4.9.28-v7+ armv7l. Not seeing an obvious way to do it.



Is this even possible?

You can use the following snippet:



var framework = Assembly
.GetEntryAssembly()?
.GetCustomAttribute<TargetFrameworkAttribute>()?
.FrameworkName;

var stats = new
{
OsPlatform = System.Runtime.InteropServices.RuntimeInformation.OSDescription,
AspDotnetVersion = framework
};


Code found on: weblog.west-wind.com



When run on my pc it returns:



Microsoft Windows 10.0.17134 
.NETCoreApp,Version=v2.1

  • If you have access to the dll files you can load on of those assemblies. Instead of calling Assembly.GetEntryAssembly() you call 'Assembly.LoadFile("Path/too/app.dll")'

  • If you wish to get the .version using http... no way unless you created the app to provide that version inside a http header or something. And that can be done using the code in my answer to get the version, and the on every request set a header with that data.
