Octopack Bin Folder

p.k.stanton · November 16, 2016, 2:56pm

Hi,
i cannot find a way of changing my bin output with Octopack in VSTS. It currently pushes bin folder content to bin/Release/. . i would like it to create the package with the content in /bin/ instead.

I tried using a nuspec file with structure like so

However this has 2 issues.

It leaves the original files in bin/Release/ folder . I’d rather they never went there in the first place.
It does not copy subfolders inside bin/Release/ , just the top level files.

Thank You
Phil

Hi Phil,

Thanks for reaching out! If you are using VSTS, I recommend you to use the Package Application step of our VSTS extension instead of using Octopack, as It’ll allow you for a bit more flexibility in cases such as this one:

check for “If not using OctoPack”

Thanks,
