This is an example repository of building a .NET Core project using a container with Cake and .NET Core SDK pre-installed. Which means the host doesn't need to have neither Cake or .NET Core installed to be able to execute script and build project.

./run.sh

run.cmd

So what does Cake pre-installed mean? It means the Cake tool is in the container image and available in path, so you could use it either as part of your own custom image or by using docker run.

docker run --rm -it cakebuild/cake:2.1-sdk bash
