Mono + Linux
Hi!
I'm quite pleased with the services provided by AppVeyor and its ease of use: I also appreciate a lot you give the service for free to open-source projects, since I couldn't afford setting up a dedicated CI machine for projects that don't generate any revenue.
With this regard, I'm running two open-source projects built with MSBuild under profile 3.5 (for maximum backward compatibility): one is a mathematical library for the elaboration of astronomical numbers, and the other is a SQL-99 RDBMS (oriented mainly to embedded contexts).
I wish to know if you have any plans to support the build under Mono (that is very important to me for compatibility with mobile platforms) and Linux (still for compatibility).
Since the joined efforts of Xamarin and Microsoft months ago, the plan of the enterprise is to go towards a full compatibility of .NET on non-Windows platforms, but this is yet to come, and given the low-level degree of my projects, I wish to have a CI step to ensure the builds to be fully compatible.
Thank you very much again.
Antonello Provenzano

Hi Antonello,
Thanks for your suggestion!
We might consider adding Linux in the future, but for now you can just use Travis CI.

+1 for Linux. Travis CI does not support BitBucket or GitLab :(

What kind of project/app you'd like to test on Linux?

We are a telecom that have a major portion of our system running in Linux and we are porting our legacy php & ruby phone swtich utils (services) to .net core.
These are micro services (REST or custom Binary for phone equipments). They will probably be hosted on nginx. Most will be powered by a database.

OK, so it's .NET Core primarily? Would Ubuntu work?

Yes Ubuntu would be perfect. CentOS would be even better but we will take whatever flavor we can get.

OK, thanks for your feedback! I can't give you exact ETA, but we are going to start experimenting with Linux support later this year.

We are using AppVeyor for the windows build of our .NET core project & BitBucket Pipelines for the linux/docker build of the same .NET core project. We have bit bucket so Travis wasn't an option; you might want to give PipeLines a try (it only support none windows docker images, even custom ones).
