Status?

Is this project still under development? It looks very promising. Do you guys have any plans to keep the legacy framework part of the new one? Or refactor it into the new framework somehow?

Hi Jon,

Although it doesn’t look like it, we do use this project and find it quite useful for automating deployments, DB migration, and lots of small annoying daily development tasks. It’s a project that we’ve used in the course of our work (at our consultancy) but I’m afraid we haven’t really been interested in publicising it very widely, so it’s not as commonly used as say MSBuild, NAnt or AlbaCore. Most of the people I know who use it would prefer it to those things however! Largely, I believe, because it’s not XML, and it’s the same language you use to write your apps in (C#), which has lots of advantages in terms of interop compatibility. The ability to use the same code as your app to access your DB, or access APIs cannot be underestimated. I have nothing against Ruby of course, and use Rake when I’m doing Rails projects, but it makes sense to me to use a C# task tool when I’m writing C# apps.

Anyway, the “legacy” bounce stuff is out, and it just needs to be deleted from the project. I kept it initially because it had a lot of things that needed to be ported into the new one, but that’s mostly done now and just serves to confuse people (sorry). The rest of the (new) project is quite stable, and I would suggest using it but my ability to maintain it is limited as I’m not often doing .Net projects these days.

As always, pull requests are welcome if they’re not insane, and I’m more than happy to discuss changes or approaches, or more generally issues you might have when using it.

Essentially, it has been very useful for us on our .Net projects, and we’ve maintained it enough to make it work for us. If you’re interested in doing the same then I’d be happy to help.

Tim.

Hey Tim,

Sorry for the long delay (1 year, lol).

Have you got any handy examples available for building a Visual Studio solution?

I think I'm doing it wrong.

Thanks,

Jon

Aaaand of course after spending all day on it, just figured it out. Nevermind!
