2. Setup Your Environment
1. Ensure you are set for organizational deployment
Please see the organizational deployment guide
2. Get the package into your environment
Option 1: Cached Package (Unreliable, Requires Internet - Same As Community)-
Open Source or Commercial:
- Proxy Repository - Create a proxy nuget repository on Nexus, Artifactory Pro, or a proxy Chocolatey repository on ProGet. Point your upstream to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/. Packages cache on first access automatically. Make sure your choco clients are using your proxy repository as a source and NOT the default community repository. See source command for more information.
- You can also just download the package and push it to a repository Download
-
Open Source
-
Download the package:
Download - Follow manual internalization instructions
-
-
Package Internalizer (C4B)
-
Run: (additional options)
choco download invokemsbuild --internalize --source=https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/ -
For package and dependencies run:
choco push --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" - Automate package internalization
-
Run: (additional options)
3. Copy Your Script
choco upgrade invokemsbuild -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" [other options]See options you can pass to upgrade.
See best practices for scripting.
Add this to a PowerShell script or use a Batch script with tools and in places where you are calling directly to Chocolatey. If you are integrating, keep in mind enhanced exit codes.
If you do use a PowerShell script, use the following to ensure bad exit codes are shown as failures:
choco upgrade invokemsbuild -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'"
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE
Write-Verbose "Exit code was $exitCode"
$validExitCodes = @(0, 1605, 1614, 1641, 3010)
if ($validExitCodes -contains $exitCode) {
Exit 0
}
Exit $exitCode

Description
A PowerShell module to make building projects with MsBuild easy. It provides many features like fire-and-forget, or build and wait to check if build succeeded.
Files
Modules\Invoke-MSBuild\Invoke-MsBuild.psm1
#Requires -Version 2.0
function Invoke-MsBuild
{
<#
.SYNOPSIS
Builds the given Visual Studio solution or project file using MSBuild.
.DESCRIPTION
Executes the MSBuild.exe tool against the specified Visual Studio solution or project file.
Returns true if the build succeeded, false if the build failed, and null if we could not determine the build result.
If using the PathThru switch, the process running MSBuild is returned instead.
.PARAMETER Path
The path of the Visual Studio solution or project to build (e.g. a .sln or .csproj file).
.PARAMETER MsBuildParameters
Additional parameters to pass to the MsBuild command-line tool. This can be any valid MsBuild command-line parameters except for the path of
the solution/project to build.
See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-ca/library/vstudio/ms164311.aspx for valid MsBuild command-line parameters.
.PARAMETER $BuildLogDirectoryPath
The directory path to write the build log file to.
Defaults to putting the log file in the users temp directory (e.g. C:\Users\[User Name]\AppData\Local\Temp).
Use the keyword "PathDirectory" to put the log file in the same directory as the .sln or project file being built.
.PARAMETER AutoLaunchBuildLog
If set, this switch will cause the build log to automatically be launched into the default viewer if the build fails.
NOTE: This switch cannot be used with the PassThru switch.
.PARAMETER KeepBuildLogOnSuccessfulBuilds
If set, this switch will cause the msbuild log file to not be deleted on successful builds; normally it is only kept around on failed builds.
NOTE: This switch cannot be used with the PassThru switch.
.PARAMETER ShowBuildWindow
If set, this switch will cause a command prompt window to be shown in order to view the progress of the build.
.PARAMETER ShowBuildWindowAndPromptForInputBeforeClosing
If set, this switch will cause a command prompt window to be shown in order to view the progress of the build, and it will remain open
after the build completes until the user presses a key on it.
NOTE: If not using PassThru, the user will need to provide input before execution will return back to the calling script.
.PARAMETER PassThru
If set, this switch will cause the script not to wait until the build (launched in another process) completes before continuing execution.
Instead the build will be started in a new process and that process will immediately be returned, allowing the calling script to continue
execution while the build is performed, and also to inspect the process to see when it completes.
NOTE: This switch cannot be used with the AutoLaunchBuildLog or KeepBuildLogOnSuccessfulBuilds switches.
.PARAMETER GetLogPath
If set, the build will not actually be performed.
Instead it will just return the full path of the MsBuild Log file that would be created if the build is performed with the same parameters.
.OUTPUTS
When the -PassThru switch is not provided, a boolean value is returned; $true indicates that MsBuild completed successfully, $false indicates
that MsBuild failed with errors (or that something else went wrong), and $null indicates that we were unable to determine if the build succeeded or failed.
When the -PassThru switch is provided, the process being used to run the build is returned.
.EXAMPLE
$buildSucceeded = Invoke-MsBuild -Path "C:\Some Folder\MySolution.sln"
if ($buildSucceeded)
{ Write-Host "Build completed successfully." }
else
{ Write-Host "Build failed. Check the build log file for errors." }
Perform the default MSBuild actions on the Visual Studio solution to build the projects in it, and returns whether the build succeeded or failed.
The PowerShell script will halt execution until MsBuild completes.
.EXAMPLE
$process = Invoke-MsBuild -Path "C:\Some Folder\MySolution.sln" -PassThru
Perform the default MSBuild actions on the Visual Studio solution to build the projects in it.
The PowerShell script will not halt execution; instead it will return the process performing MSBuild actions back to the caller while the action is performed.
.EXAMPLE
Invoke-MsBuild -Path "C:\Some Folder\MyProject.csproj" -MsBuildParameters "/target:Clean;Build" -ShowBuildWindow
Cleans then Builds the given C# project.
A window displaying the output from MsBuild will be shown so the user can view the progress of the build.
.EXAMPLE
Invoke-MsBuild -Path "C:\MySolution.sln" -Params "/target:Clean;Build /property:Configuration=Release;Platform=x64;BuildInParallel=true /verbosity:Detailed /maxcpucount"
Cleans then Builds the given solution, specifying to build the project in parallel in the Release configuration for the x64 platform.
Here the shorter "Params" alias is used instead of the full "MsBuildParameters" parameter name.
.EXAMPLE
Invoke-MsBuild -Path "C:\Some Folder\MyProject.csproj" -ShowBuildWindowAndPromptForInputBeforeClosing -AutoLaunchBuildLog
Builds the given C# project.
A window displaying the output from MsBuild will be shown so the user can view the progress of the build, and it will not close until the user
gives the window some input. This function will also not return until the user gives the window some input, halting the powershell script execution.
If the build fails, the build log will automatically be opened in the default text viewer.
.EXAMPLE
Invoke-MsBuild -Path "C:\Some Folder\MyProject.csproj" -BuildLogDirectoryPath "C:\BuildLogs" -KeepBuildLogOnSuccessfulBuilds -AutoLaunchBuildLog
Builds the given C# project.
The build log will be saved in "C:\BuildLogs", and they will not be automatically deleted even if the build succeeds.
If the build fails, the build log will automatically be opened in the default text viewer.
.EXAMPLE
Invoke-MsBuild -Path "C:\Some Folder\MyProject.csproj" -BuildLogDirectoryPath PathDirectory
Builds the given C# project.
The build log will be saved in "C:\Some Folder\", which is the same directory as the project being built (i.e. directory specified in the Path).
.EXAMPLE
Invoke-MsBuild -Path "C:\Database\Database.dbproj" -P "/t:Deploy /p:TargetDatabase=MyDatabase /p:TargetConnectionString=`"Data Source=DatabaseServerName`;Integrated Security=True`;Pooling=False`" /p:DeployToDatabase=True"
Deploy the Visual Studio Database Project to the database "MyDatabase".
Here the shorter "P" alias is used instead of the full "MsBuildParameters" parameter name.
The shorter alias' of the msbuild parameters are also used; "/t" instead of "/target", and "/p" instead of "/property".
.EXAMPLE
Invoke-MsBuild -Path "C:\Some Folder\MyProject.csproj" -BuildLogDirectoryPath "C:\BuildLogs" -GetLogPath
Returns the full path to the MsBuild Log file that would be created if the build was ran with the same parameters.
In this example the returned log path might be "C:\BuildLogs\MyProject.msbuild.log".
If the BuildLogDirectoryPath was not provided, the returned log path might be "C:\Some Folder\MyProject.msbuild.log".
