#Summary

The cf-dotnet-sdk-msbuild-tasks project implements custom tasks that use the cf-dotnet-sdk (https://github.com/hpcloud/cf-dotnet-sdk) to facilitate .NET projects integration with CloudFoundry.

Tasks implemented in this library:

• Login
  • allows the user to obtain a refresh token from the cloud
  • required parameters: cloud credentials (CFUser - CFPassword or CFRefreshToken, CFServerUri and CFSkipSslValidation)
  • output: refresh token (CFRefreshToken)
• CreateApp
  • allows the user to create a new application in the cloud
  • required parameters: cloud credentials, space name (CFSpace), organization name (CFOrganization) and application's manifest (CFManifest)
  • output: created application's guid (CFAppGuid)
• PushApp
  • allows the user to push an application to the cloud
  • required parameters: cloud credentials, space name (CFSpace), organization name (CFOrganization) and application's manifest (CFManifest)
  • optional parameters: allow application to start (CFStart - default value is false)
• CreateRoutes
  • allow users to create routes that can be later mapped to an application
  • required parameters: cloud credentials, space name (CFSpace), organization name (CFOrganization) and application's manifest (CFManifest)
  • output: returns a list of route guids
• BindRoutes
  • allow users to bind routes to an application
  • required parameters: cloud credentials, space name (CFSpace), organization name (CFOrganization) and application's manifest (CFManifest)
• BindServices
  • allows users to bind an array of provisioned services to an application
  • required parameters: cloud credentials, space name (CFSpace), organization name (CFOrganization) and application's manifest (CFManifest)
  • output: returns an array of binding guids (BindingGuids)
• DeleteApp
  • allows user to remove an application from the cloud
  • required parameters: cloud credentials, space name (CFSpace), organization name (CFOrganization) and application's manifest (CFManifest)
  • optional parameters: allow task to delete routes bound to the application (CFDeleteRoutes) and allow task to delete provisioned services bound to the application (CFDeleteServices)
• DeleteService
  • allows user to remove a provisioned service instance
  • required parameters: cloud credentials, space name (CFSpace), organization name (CFOrganization) and application's manifest (CFManifest)
• DeleteRoute
  • allows user to remove an unbound route
  • required parameters: cloud credentials, space name (CFSpace), organization name (CFOrganization) and application's manifest (CFManifest)
• UnbindRoute
  • allows user to remove a route binding from an application
  • required parameters: cloud credentials, space name (CFSpace), organization name (CFOrganization) and application's manifest (CFManifest)
• UnbindService
  • allows user to remove a provisioned service binding from an application
  • required parameters: cloud credentials, space name (CFSpace), organization name (CFOrganization) and application's manifest (CFManifest)

#Prerequisites

• Microsoft Visual Studio 2013
• .NET Framework 4.5

#Usage

In order to use this library it is necessary to map the task that is referenced to the assembly that contains the task implementation (in this case the cf-dotnet-sdk-msbuild-tasks library). This can be done by adding the UsingTask Element in your msbuild project file (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/t41tzex2.aspx)

#Project dependencies

This library uses Cloud Foundry .NET SDK and YamlDotNet libraries.

#Building the project

The solution can be build simply by running msbuild CloudFoundry.Build.sln. The build output will be located in the lib folder and the tests are located in lib\tests.

#Running tests

Since the unit tests are using fakes the cf-dotnet-sdk-msbuild-tasks project tests can be run only using vstest.console.exe since mstest does not support the fakes framework yet.

To run the unit tests: vstest.console.exe lib\tests\CloudFoundry.Build.Tasks.Test.dll

To run the integration tests it is necessary to modify the CloudFoundry.Build.Tasks.IntegrationTests.dll.config file and add the credentials and url of the CloudFoundry deployment used for the tests.

To run the integration tests: vstest.console.exe lib\tests\CloudFoundry.Build.Tasks.IntegrationTests.dll

#Integration with a project

It is not necessary for the project that will use this library to include a reference to this library. As stated in the usage section this library should be used with a UsingTask Element straight in the project file.

Sample integration of the create application task in a target of the project file:

<Target Name="sampleCreate"> <UsingTask AssemblyFile="$(SolutionDir)\packages\Cloudfoundry.Build.Tasks.dll" TaskName="CreateApp"> </UsingTask> <CreateApp CFAppName="sampleApp" CFStack="win2012r2" CFSpace="SampleSpace" CFUser="sampleUser" CFPassword="samplePass" CFServerUri="api.1.2.3.4.xip.io"> <Output TaskParameter="CFAppGuid" PropertyName="CFAppGuid"/> </CreateApp> </Target>

This target can be called using: msbuild myproject.csproj /t:sampleCreate
