  • Announcing w3c-nant version 1.0.2 - now with FTP upload task!

    Mar 4, 2012

    I added a new NAnt task in the w3c-nant library to allow FTP uploads. Using the same fileset mechanism as the copy task, you can create powerful scripts to automate deploying in a remote FTP server. Or at least that’s what I’m using it for!

  • Continuous Deployment with a Windows Service project

    Oct 25, 2011

    For a long time now I had a long running process here at home implemented as a Windows Console application. The application was quite stable, but from time to time I had to fix a bug or add a new feature. Before deploying a new version, I would have to login to the deployment machine where the application was running and terminate it, otherwise deployment would fail trying to copy over the new files. Quite tedious. And then I would have to start it again, as soon as the deployment server had finished its job. I like to automate this kind of things.

  • Combine subversion post-commit hooks with NAnt

    Jul 25, 2010

    Subversion offers a mechanism called post-commit hook that allows an executable file to be run on the subversion server after a successful commit has been made. Since I host my own home server, containing both this website and my own subversion server, I thought I could use this mechanism to automatically update some files on the website when a commit has been made. For example, if I commit some changes on a web page template, it would be nice if it would automatically be updated on the website and also be packaged as a zip file for visitors of the site to download.
