Regarding Build

Hi,
Can i access generated build through browser, so that user can view and download it.

Thanks

Hi Mina,

You can access the build page by clicking on a build version number on any of the dashboard views or the configuration view. The build page has various tabs, one of which is the Artifacts tab. Any files generated or used during the build can be registered as artifacts and listed on this page. Each artifact file can be downloaded, and some file types can be viewed in the browser.

Before a file can be registered as an artifact, you need to set up the workspace rules to ensure that files generated on the agent are copied to the server at the end of each build stage. The default workspace rules copy the contents of an Output folder to the server, but this can be changed to any folders or files relevant to your build.

You will also need to set up the artifact rules to match the files that you want to register as artifacts.

Thank you for your response Dave.

Hi Dave,
I registered artifacts and setup rules as below:
#Artifact rules
#---------------------------------------------------
#Register all variables as artifacts

Output**.dll

Output**.exe

Output**.sln

#---------------------------------------------------

But when i run the build it didn’t show me all the files of the application, it shows only 2 xml files -
Enviornment.xml and VariableNamespaces.xml file

I want to see all the dll and exe files from my .Net application after build.
Please Suggest.

Thanks

Did you look at the Workspace Rules and Artifact Rules help topics.

Start with the workspace rules, making sure the files are copied back to the server. It’s impossible to know what the artifact rules should be without knowing what the workspace rules are, however assuming your workspace rules look something like

Output < Output\**.dll
Output < Output\**.exe

Then your artifact rules would be

Output\**.dll
Output\**.exe

On the stage workspace rules and artifact rules tabs, turn on logging and run a build and check what the rules did.
