WebDeploy Packaging with ASP.NET Core 2.0 (includes Function Apps)

Almost 2 years ago I wrote a blog post on creating WebDeploy packages (really MSDeploy packages) for ASP.NET Core projects.  https://www.dotnetcatch.com/2016/09/20/webdeploy-packaging-with-asp-net-core/ Since that time there have been changes to the framework and that solution no longer works with ASP.NET Core 2.0 projects.  The PackagePublish and Publish targets for example are no longer provided. >”c:\Program Files …
