- While previously a simple app.run call inside the application script was used, now there is a flask run command, plus a FLASKAPP environment variable. While the design of the Flask website has changed considerably in the years that followed, as I’m writing this article in 2020 the flask run method continues to be the most visible in the.
- Nov 04, 2020 Using PostgreSQL App. To run a server through the postgres app, the first step is to download the program. The app can be downloaded on postgresapp.com.

There is an option to set apps to launch at startup on a Mac from the Dock menu in case the app you are looking to set in the startup is already present in the dock menu. But the Dock menu contains two types of apps. One is the fixed apps that are always present there and the other apps are presently running. However, the process is same for.
Disclaimer: I am not on the .NET Core Team. I used the tools available publicly and have no insights into the future of .NET Core. It looks very bright though. :)
The working source code for this project can be found here.
Intro
A complete list of post in this series is included below :
In this post, we’re going to look at running the app from the command line and then the Mac.
Running the App in the Windows Command Prompt
Mac Run App As Service Llc
While you can obviously run the app inside of Visual Studio with the F5 command. You should also know that you can run the app inside of the console. Before we begin, make sure you have the app found here. After opening the app or downloading it, open the folder containing the project in the command prompt.
You can run your application here by simply typing :
You will the following output :
The exact same result from running the console app in Visual Studio.
Using dotnet publish to get the app ready for Mac
Go ahead and type dotnet publish on the command prompt and then type tree to look at your directory listing as shown below :
You should see the publish directory. Navigate into it and list out the files in the directory :
Take note that the dlls listed below are related to the package reference that we added in the last blog post.
- Newtonsoft.Json.dll
- System.Runtime.Serialization.Primitives.dll
This only leaves the NetCoreConsoleApp.dll which is the Console application that we can run on a Mac (or any other platform that supports .NET Core).
Running the app on a Mac
Finally! It is about time you might say. I agree. Before you can run the app on your Mac, you’re going to need to head back over to the .NET Core downloads page and install OpenSSL and then the SDK (or runtime) if you remember the difference from the first post.
To run this on your Mac, you’ll need to copy the ‘publish’ folder to your Mac. Then open Terminal and you can run the app by just typing :
This is awesome! Now you have an app that run on another platform and you used your existing .NET skillset to create it. I’m LOVING .NET Core!
