Question: Running Realisify at run time? #1793

Closed Wolfleader101 closed 2 years ago

Wolfleader101 commented 2 years ago

Hello,

I am currently trying to use Azure Dev Ops Pipelines to allow for automatic updates, and currently, it pushes the packaged NuGet packages to my own private feed, and on my C# Applications front-end I am downloading the latest Nuget Package, however, I was just wondering how to actually then extract the Nuget package and extract it via C#.

I looked into the ReleasePackage and ReleaseEntry classes however neither seems to be what I am after.

Is it even possible to do this through squirrel?

I'm not sure if I follow what you're trying to do - Squirrel uses NuGet packages, but does not use the Nuget Package Feed service. You want to call Releasify on your CI service, then take the release directory and copy it verbatim to CloudFront or some other static file service.
