Lars Corneliussen resolved NPANDAY-488.
---------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
> Packaging for Web Applications (also Azure Web Roles)
> -----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: NPANDAY-488
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NPANDAY-488
> Project: NPanday
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Maven Plugins, Visual Studio Add-in
> Affects Versions: 1.4-incubating
> Reporter: Lars Corneliussen
> Assignee: Lars Corneliussen
> Fix For: 1.5.0-incubating
>
>
> MSDeploy is an extensible tool for creating deployment packages, which then
> can be deployed to IIS (or Windows Services, e.g.)
> This is also a prerequisite for Azure Web Roles.
> h2. High-level Requirements
> - Must support Package creation
> - Must support full MSDeploy feature set (through -source:manifest?)
> - Must choose reasonable defaults for file inclusion
> - Must be configurable from the VS Add-in
> - Should support XDT transformations
> - Should support filtering (Maven-Properties)
> - Should support Parametrization (through -declareParamFile)
> - Should make it hard to let default connection strings and passwords "leak"
> into the package
> h2. Implementation Details
> - (?) instead of reinventing the wheel, we could utilize
> maven-assembly-plugin:single with package-type "dir"
> -- {color:red}or:{color} Syntax should be similar to maven-assembly-plugin;
> maybe code reuse is possible?
> -- Externalized descriptors for file-inclusions should be possible (NPanday
> then provides reasonable defaults)
> - Package type is named {{msdeploy-package}} with extension {{msdeploy.zip}}
> (must end with .zip)
> - XDT should be delegated to MSBuild (partially depends on NPANDAY-486)
> h2. Flow
> To test how this could work out, I used default Maven/NPanday tools +
> registration of {{msdeploy-package}} as {{msdeploy.zip}}. Then, as soon as we
> know how this should exactly work, we can start creating the needed plugins.
> *prepare-package*
> - (/) {{assembly:single}} -> {{target/prepare-package/01-source-raw}}
> -- includes {{dotnet-library}} dependencies in {{bin}}
> -- includes *.as?x + config + css + js + graphics
> - (/) {{exec:exec: msbuild copy-transformed.xml}} -> XDT-Transforms using
> *.package.config -> {{target/prepare-package/03-transformed}}
> - (?) (Optional) {{exec:exec -> msdeploy}} - apply parameter configuration
> -- This would avoid leaking developer default values into the package
>
> *package*
> - (/) {{exec:exec: msdeploy -verb:sync
> -source:dirPath=target/prepare-package/03-transformed
> -dest:package=target/$\{artifactId\}.msdeploy.zip}}
> - (/) {{build-helper:attach}} artifact
> {{target/$\{artifactId\}.msdeploy.zip}} as {{msdeploy-package}}
> Build runs locally:
> {code}
> [INFO] Installing target\HelloWorld_WebRole.dll to
