Automatically publish a Windows Service project using Jenkins

Unlike publishing Web projects, automating the publishing of Windows service projects requires the following issues to be addressed:

1. How do I stop and start a service remotely? You need to stop the service before publishing and start the service after the release is complete.
2. How do I upload a compiled file to a target server?

Issue 1: How to stop and start a service remotely

Before MSBuild, add an Execute Windows Batch command, execute the cmd command, and the cmd command is as follows:

echo **********stop remote server Windows service**********"C:\Program files\iis\microsoft Web Deploy v3\ Msdeploy.exe "-verb:sync-source:runcommand="net stop ubtripws_business" - Dest:auto,computername=192.168. 1.21, username=administrator,[email protected]123

The Msdeploy sync operation is used here to execute the CMD command on the target server via RunCommand.

Problem:

If the service is currently in a stopped state, running RunCommand (net stop ubtripws_business) will cause an error.

Issue 2: How to upload a compiled file to the target server

After MSBuild, add an Execute Windows Batch command, execute the cmd command, and the cmd command is as follows:

Echo ********** has three paragraphs below,1. Presync: Kill Process First,2. Synchronizing local and remote,3. Postsync: Last start service **********"C:\Program files\iis\microsoft Web Deploy v3\msdeploy.exe"-verb:sync-presync:runcommand="taskkill/f/im ssharing.ubtrip.winservice.exe/t", waitattempts= -, waitinterval= +-source:contentpath=%workspace%\dev\ubtrip\ssharing.ubtrip.winservice\bin\debug\-dest:contentpath=C:\ Windowsservices\ubtripjob\,computername=192.168.1.21, Username=administrator,[email protected]123-enablerule:donotdeleterule-postsync:runcommand="net start ubtripws_business", waitattempts= -

Use the Msdeploy sync operation to execute the CMD command on the target server via RunCommand. Presync refers to a command that runs before a file is copied, Postsync is a command that runs after a file is copied.

Attention:

Msdeploy Contentpath Default is to delete the target server's files and then add, but we do not want to delete the original file, so we need to add parameter-enablerule:donotdeleterule.

Automatically exclude Web. config and app. Config

1,windows Service Project

By adding parameter-skip to Msdeploy, the command is as follows:

-skip:objectname=filepath,absolutepath=web\.config,skipaction=update

2,web Project

Because the Web project is built by Msbuild+msdeploy service, there is no way to add-skip parameters to msdeploy like a Windows Service project, and the solution for a Web project is to Modify the site's Csproj project file and add a target to tell MSBuild to automatically exclude the Web. config file when it is built, with the following command:

<!--tell MSBuild to exclude the Web. config file when publishing -  <TargetName= "Customexcludefiles"beforetargets= "Excludefilesfrompackage">    <ItemGroup>      <ExcludefrompackagefilesInclude= "Web. config">      </Excludefrompackagefiles>    </ItemGroup>  </Target>
