LibGit2Sharp can't find native assembly under PowerShell Core

I maintain a PowerShell module, GitAutomation, that wraps the LibGit2Sharp library. Yesterday, I was trying to get it to run on PowerShell Core. It doesn't seem to work. It is looking for the native git assembly in the LibGit2Sharp.dll assembly's folder instead of the lib/win32/xXX folder, like it does under Windows PowerShell (.NET Framework).

The issue appears to be your check for whether or not you're running under .NET Core. It looks like you're looking for the Mono.Runtime type, which doesn't exist in the version of .NET Core that PowerShell Core is using.

It looks like the current best way to determine if you're running under .NET Core is to use the System.Runtime.InteropServices.RuntimeInformation.FrameworkDescription property, which begins with .NET Framework when running under the .NET Framework and .NET Core when running under .NET Core.

Windows PowerShell:

$ [Runtime.InteropServices.RuntimeInformation]::FrameworkDescription
.NET Framework 4.7.3260.0
$ [Mono.Runtime]
Unable to find type [Mono.Runtime].
At line:1 char:1
+ [Mono.Runtime]
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : InvalidOperation: (Mono.Runtime:TypeName) [], RuntimeException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : TypeNotFound

PowerShell Core

 $ [Runtime.InteropServices.RuntimeInformation]::FrameworkDescription
.NET Core 4.6.26919.02
 $ [Mono.Runtime]
Unable to find type [Mono.Runtime].
At line:1 char:1
+ [Mono.Runtime]
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo          : InvalidOperation: (Mono.Runtime:TypeName) [], RuntimeException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : TypeNotFound

Bắt đầu bằng cách xác định phần kiểm tra runtime và việc phân giải assembly native trong mã nguồn LibGit2Sharp. Tái hiện việc tra cứu trên PowerShell Core và Windows PowerShell, sau đó xác minh rằng assembly native được tìm thấy từ thư mục lib/win32/xXX trong cả hai môi trường. Hoàn tất khi GitAutomation có thể tải LibGit2Sharp trên PowerShell Core.
