Specify executable path?

[Casper T. Hansen]

Is there a way to instruct stack on where to place the executable once it has been built?
Currently I use: find ./.stack-work/install/x86_64-linux/ -name appName-exe

but it seems like something, where I just cannot find the right command.

As far as I know, this is by design. 

If you just want to execute it in your sandbox, you can run `stack exec appName.exe`

If you want the executable to be available in your path, build it with `stack install`

You can use `stack install` or `stack build --copy-bins` with `--local-bin-path`

Ahh I will try this! 
I need to extract the binary after building in a docker container, so this seems to be a good approach.
Thank you.

Thank you for your answer, my case is that I need to extract the binary after building in a docker container, so Michael Snoyman's approach seems to fit better.
