UPDATE
My previous answer is no longer valid (since RC2), the resource
is now marked as deprecated. (Thanks @Yossarian)
Proper way how to do this is now to use buildOptions/embed
:
...
"buildOptions": {
"emitEntryPoint": true,
"embed": [ "9NLiZmx.png" ]
},
...
You must use the section resource in project.json, like this
{
"compile": "*.cs",
"resource": [
"mapping.xml"
]
}
By default all code files in a directory containing a project.json are included in the project. You can control this with the include/exclude sections of the project.json.
Most sections of the project.json file that deal with files allow glob patterns, which are often called wildcards.

You can see a sample below:
Program.cs
using System;
using System.Reflection;
namespace ConsoleApp1
{
public class Program
{
public static void Main(string[] args)
{
var assemblyName = new AssemblyName("ConsoleApp1");
var resources = string.Join(Environment.NewLine, Assembly.Load(assemblyName).GetManifestResourceNames());
Console.WriteLine("List of Manifest Resource Names");
Console.WriteLine("======================");
Console.WriteLine(resources);
}
}
}
project.json
{
"version": "1.0.0-*",
"description": "ConsoleApp1 Console Application",
"authors": [ "Alberto Monteiro" ],
"tags": [ "" ],
"projectUrl": "",
"licenseUrl": "",
"compilationOptions": {
"emitEntryPoint": true
},
"resource": "9NLiZmx.png",
"dependencies": {
},
"commands": {
"ConsoleApp1": "ConsoleApp1"
},
"frameworks": {
"dnx451": { },
"dnxcore50": {
"dependencies": {
"Microsoft.CSharp": "4.0.1-beta-23516",
"System.Collections": "4.0.11-beta-23516",
"System.Console": "4.0.0-beta-23516",

"System.IO.FileSystem": "4.0.1-beta-23225",
"System.Reflection": "4.1.0-beta-23516"
}
}
}
}
