Can I publish a ASP.NET Core application as a deb package on ubuntu 16.04, if can, how should I do it?

If not, do you have a plan to support this feature?

Thank you very much!

This isn't a feature we currently supported, but you should be able to do this yourself by using the output of dotnet publish. If you publish as a "self-contained deployment", your debian package would only need to carry the published output and dependencies to Ubuntu's prerequisties. See this doc for details deploying a .NET Core app.

If you wanted to do framework-dependency deployment, you'll need to ensure the shared framework is also listed in your package's dependencies. See https://www.microsoft.com/net/core#linuxubuntu for instructions on installing the apt feeds. To see a list of available packages, checkout https://apt-mo.trafficmanager.net/repos/dotnet-release/dists/xenial/main/binary-amd64/Packages. You'll likely only need dotnet-sharedframework-microsoft.netcore.app-1.1.2.
