ASP.NET 5 RC Export Template Not Working #306

Open TLHamilton opened 8 years ago

TLHamilton commented 8 years ago

When I use the File > Export Template function on an ASP.NET 5 project everything seems to go fine until I create a new project with the template. The Solution Explorer for the new project just does not show any of the project files.

@TLHamilton thanks for the report. I'm not sure what the status of File->Export Template is. I think it may not work for several project types.

I've opened an internal TFS bug so that we can reach out to the team that owns that.

This still appears to be an issue, any news on when this is likely to resolved? or does anybody know a work around?

senj commented 8 years ago

Is there a workaround? The asp.net 5 templates provided in VS must have been created somehow?

jmurphzyo commented 8 years ago

I found the work around rename the template file inside the zip to the correct name. It took me two hours to figure this out.

sayedihashimi commented 8 years ago

We have not yet looked at this. The team is heads down converting from dnx to dotnet.

senj commented 8 years ago

can you give an example please? What is the "correct name"? solutionname?

Step 1. Create a asp.net 5 template and use the VS export template tool to auto generate a template zip file. [image: step1] https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/7680404/13712359/d1abebda-e788-11e5-981d-132fc19213af.jpg

Step 2. Extract the contents from the generated zip file and open the file “MyTemplate.vstemplate”. [image: step2] https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/7680404/13712363/daba458c-e788-11e5-96cb-9ec360819e38.jpg

Step 3. Locate the“”column and copy the information inside. [image: step3] https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/7680404/13712354/c93bcbf0-e788-11e5-9b6d-2f4bed5bcfb5.jpg

Step 4. Rename the “MyTemplate.vstemplate” to “CopiedInformation.vstemplate” [image: step4] https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/7680404/13712370/e0e28ece-e788-11e5-96a9-a22119d80383.jpg

Step 5. Now zip the newly edited content. [image: step5] https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/7680404/13712379/e946e754-e788-11e5-93d2-454142593029.jpg

Step 6. Replace the zip file that was automatically generated by the visual studio tool. [image: step6] https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/7680404/13712386/edc3ae20-e788-11e5-88d4-5aeaa150e428.jpg

The GitHub Issue Tracker for the aspnet/Tooling repo is being deprecated in favor of Visual Studio's Report a Problem tool.

If this issue is still a problem with the RTW release of Visual Studio 2017, please report a new issue using the Report a Problem tool. While you can still use .NET Core and ASP.NET Preview tools with Visual Studio 2015, Visual Studio 2017 is now the officially supported tool for developing .NET Core and ASP.NET Core projects.

By using the Report a Problem tool (available in both VS 2017 and VS 2015), you can collect detailed information about the problem, and send it to Microsoft with just a few button clicks. See Visual Studio's Talk to Us page for more details.

Please use the discussion topic here for feedback and questions on the deprecation of this issue tracker. Thanks!
