# [VS .NET Linux Debugger](https://github.com/SuessLabs/VsLinuxDebug)

<image align="right" width="200" height="200" src="https://github.com/SuessLabs/VsLinuxDebug/blob/master/docs/TuxDebug.png" />

Remotely deploy and debug your .NET C# apps via SSH to Linux using Visual Studio 2022.

Get it on the [VS MarketPlace](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=SuessLabs.VSLinuxDebugger)!

Visual Studio's "attach to process via SSH" is cute, but it lacks deployment and automatic attaching. This project allows you to do just that on your Linux VM or Raspberry Pi over the network!

Suess Labs consulting is sponsored by _Xeno Innovations, Inc._

## Overview

Now developers can build, deploy and debug projects on their remote Linux (Ubuntu, Raspberry PI, etc) devices! Customize your SSH connection to use either a _password_ or a _private key_.

### Usage

![Menu Screenshot](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SuessLabs/VsLinuxDebug/develop/docs/ScreenShot-MenuItems.png)

* Build and upload to remote devices
* Remote debugging*
* _This is still in the experimental stages. Please use VS' Attach to Process if you have issues_
* VS Linux Debugger will automatically detect and install `vsdbg` for you!

For GUI app debugging, you can use the _Build and Deploy_ feature, however, you must manually _Attach to Process_ via SSH using Visual Studio at this time.

### Getting Started

**Linux**, we'll need **SSH** and **cURL** for access and downloading any missing tools:

```bash
sudo apt install openssh-server
sudo apt install curl
```

**Windows**:

1. Open Visual Studio (VS) > Tools > Options > **Linux Debugger**
2. **Input:** Remote Host IP address
3. **Input:** Remote's User Name and Password
4. VS > Extensions > Linux Debugger > **Build, Deploy, Debug**

![Tools Options](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SuessLabs/VsLinuxDebug/develop/docs/ScreenShot-ToolsOptions.png)

### Manually Attaching (for GUI apps)

For GUI projects, you can use **Build and Deploy** and then manually attach to the process via SSH by using Visual Studio's built-in tool

1. Deploy to remote machine via
1. Extensions > Linux Debugger > **"Build and Deploy"**
2. Run GUI app on remote machine
1. `dotnet MyGuiApp.dll`
3. Debug > **"Attach to Process.."**
4. Connection Type: **SSH**
5. Connection Target: **(Remote machine's IP)**
6. (Select process)
7. Click, **Attach**
8. Check, **"Managed (.NET Core for Unix)"**
9. Click, **OK**

This will save you 1.5 minutes on every build of manual uploading and updating rights via `chown -R`.
