The latest version of the dot net core agent can be downloaded in two archive formats:

The same archive contains an executable built for both Windows and Linux OS. Still, for convenience, we provide archive formats to support the native capabilities of Linux (.tar.gz) and Windows (.zip). It is especially relevant when working with containers.

If you have a limitation accessing the endpoint agents.sealights.co and are limited to your specific servers DNS, then you can also get the agent from
https://{company}.sealights.co//dotnetcore/sealights-dotnet-agent-latest.tar.gz
Replace {company} with your company dns prefix

Sample commands for download

Download the agent for Linux - TAR GZ archive

wget -nv https://agents.sealights.co/dotnetcore/sealights-dotnet-agent-latest.tar.gz
mkdir sl-dotnet-agent && tar -xzf ./sealights-dotnet-agent-latest.tar.gz --directory ./sl-dotnet-agent
echo "[Sealights] .NetCore Agent version is: `cat ./sl-dotnet-agent/version.txt`"

#curl tool can also be used
#curl -L "https://agents.sealights.co/dotnetcore/sealights-dotnet-agent-latest.tar.gz" --output sealights-dotnet-agent-latest.tar.gz
BASH

Download the agent for Windows - ZIP archive

iwr -OutFile sealights-dotnet-agent.zip -UseBasicParsing -Uri https://agents.sealights.co/dotnetcore/sealights-dotnet-agent-latest.zip

Agent version for Alpine Linux distribution

The Alpine distribution uses musl as the standard C library implementation, while most other Linux distributions use glibc as their standard C library implementation [Source]. It means that the library compiled with glibc depends on a different set of standard libraries and leads to a separate artifact for Alpine distributions. The code base remains the same, only the build configuration is different.

The dot net core agent for alpine can be downloaded from:

To use the dot net core agent on alpine distribution you’ll need to install musl and libexecinfo prerequisites (dependencies) via the following command: apk add --no-cache musl libexecinfo

The Microsoft dotnet/runtime-deps base image does not contain a dotnet executable, and only a self-contained .net app can be executed in such an environment. For this purpose, the alpine version of the agent also contains an agent compiled as a self-contained app you can use by replacing dotnet ./SL.DotNet.dll in the commands (from our documentation pages) by ./SL.DotNet (without file extension)

This solution is also relevant when running an application in an alpine image with a dot net version prior to 6.0.x (e.g 3.x.x) and avoids installing another dot net version in the container for Sealights agent.

Sample commands to download the dot net core agent for Alpine

wget -nv -O sealights-dotnet-agent-alpine.tar.gz https://agents.sealights.co/dotnetcore/sealights-dotnet-agent-3.2.0-alpine-self-contained.tar.gz
mkdir sl-dotnet-agent && tar -xzf ./sealights-dotnet-agent-alpine.tar.gz --directory ./sl-dotnet-agent
echo "[Sealights] .NetCore (Alpine) Agent version is: `cat ./sl-dotnet-agent/version.txt`"
apk add --no-cache musl libexecinfo
