Not understanding the StreamDeck-Tools Template tool #72

Open nickhudson4 opened 1 year ago

nickhudson4 commented 1 year ago

It downloads as a Visual Studio extension but I can't find any info on how to use it? Is there a menu in VS for it?

I am also having issues getting the install.bat to work. I am attempting to use it on your stopwatch example. Steps

  1. Place install.bat in bin folder.
  2. Created folder C:/TEMP/
  3. Edit install.bat with correct paths for DistrobutionTool, etc.
  4. Run install.bat RELEASE com.barraider.stopwatch

Error: "C:\TEMP"\com.barraider.stopwatch.streamDeckPlugin' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

@nickhudson4 A bit late, but below are the steps I took to use the StreamDeck-Tools Template, in case they're helpful:

  1. Installed Visual Studio Community 2022 (the extension was not installable with VSCode)

  2. From Windows File Explorer, right-clicked the VSIX file and selected the suggested Visual Studio option.

  1. In the VSIX Installer window that appears, selected 'Install'.

  1. In Visual Studio's uppermost toolbar, I selected File -> Project.

  1. Searched 'streamdeck' in the project template search box that appears, selected StreamDeck-Tools Template, and then selected 'Next'.

  1. A project configuration window then appears within which you can specify a name and location for your project. Select 'Create' and the project will be populated with a number of files, incluiding a README.

Hope this helped.
