Can you run an F# script file (.fsx) using .net core?

Is it possible to run .fsx files using .net core? (Equivalent to fsharpi on Mono.)

It works out of the box in .NETCore v3.0 or newer:

$ cat hello.fsx
#!/usr/bin/env fsharpi
printfn "hello world"
$ dotnet fsi hello.fsx
hello world
$ dotnet --version
3.0.100

PS: Side-note: if you want to compile your scripts without having to run them, check this tool.

I went looking for this answer and the best I could find matches your comment @Martimatix from March 28 however I did find issue 2407 in the visualfsharp repo which tracks the support for fsi on .NET Core 2.0.

Update (April 2009): It looks like there is now a preview version now for .NET Core available. https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/announcing-net-core-3-preview-3/

They are working on it. This is the main issue, the same one posted by jpierson.

You can try right now with something like this:

dotnet /usr/share/dotnet/sdk/2.1.403/FSharp/fsi.exe test.fsx

It kinda / sorta works, but there are parts missing, especially full support for #r and interactive line editing (readline).
