Name

dotnet new --list - Lists available templates to be run using dotnet new.

Synopsis

dotnet new [<TEMPLATE_NAME>] -l|--list [--author <AUTHOR>] [-lang|--language {"C#"|"F#"|VB}]
    [--tag <TAG>] [--type <TYPE>] [--columns <COLUMNS>] [--columns-all]

Description

The dotnet new --list option lists available templates to use with dotnet new. If the <TEMPLATE_NAME> is specified, lists templates containing the specified name. This option lists only default and installed templates. To find templates in NuGet that you can install locally, use the --search option.

Note

Starting with .NET SDK 7.0.100 Preview 2, the dotnet new syntax has changed:

  • The --list, --search, --install, and --uninstall options became list, search, install and uninstall subcommands.
  • The --update-apply option became the update subcommand.
  • to use --update-check, use the update subcommand with the --check option.

Other options that were available before are still available to use with their respective subcommands. Separate help for each subcommand is available via the -h or --help option: dotnet new <subcommand> --help lists all supported options for the subcommand.

Additionally, tab completion is now available for dotnet new. It supports completion for installed template names, as well as completion for the options a selected template provides. To activate tab completion for the .NET SDK, see Enable tab completion.

Examples of the new syntax:

  • Show help for list subcommand

    dotnet new list --help

  • List all templates matching the we substring that support the F# language.

    dotnet new list we --language "F#"

Arguments

  • TEMPLATE_NAME

    If the argument is specified, only the templates containing <TEMPLATE_NAME> in template name or short name will be shown.

    Note

    Starting with .NET SDK 6.0.100, you can put the <TEMPLATE_NAME> argument after the --list option. For example, dotnet new --list web provides the same result as dotnet new web --list. Using more than one argument is not allowed.

Options

  • --author <AUTHOR>

    Filters templates based on template author. Partial match is supported. Available since .NET Core 5.0.300 SDK.

  • --columns <COLUMNS>

    Comma-separated list of columns to display in the output. The supported columns are:

    • language - A comma-separated list of languages supported by the template.
    • tags - The list of template tags.
    • author - The template author.
    • type - The template type: project or item.

    The template name and short name are always shown. The default list of columns is template name, short name, language, and tags. This list is equivalent to specifying --columns=language,tags. Available since .NET Core 5.0.300 SDK.

  • --columns-all

    Displays all columns in the output. Available since .NET Core 5.0.300 SDK.

  • -lang|--language {C#|F#|VB}

    Filters templates based on language supported by the template. The language accepted varies by the template. Not valid for some templates.

    Note

    Some shells interpret # as a special character. In those cases, enclose the language parameter value in quotes. For example, dotnet new --list --language "F#".

  • --tag <TAG>

    Filters templates based on template tags. To be selected, a template must have at least one tag that exactly matches the criteria. Available since .NET Core 5.0.300 SDK.

  • --type <TYPE>

    Filters templates based on template type. Predefined values are project, item, and solution.
