Deployment Method:

NOTE

This applies to both open source and commercial editions of Chocolatey.

1. Enter Your Internal Repository Url

(this should look similar to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/)


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

  • 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

3. Copy Your Script

choco upgrade psake -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'4.4.2'" [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 psake -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'4.4.2'" 
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE

Write-Verbose "Exit code was $exitCode"
$validExitCodes = @(0, 1605, 1614, 1641, 3010)
if ($validExitCodes -contains $exitCode) {
  Exit 0
}

Exit $exitCode

- name: Install psake
  win_chocolatey:

cChocoPackageInstaller psake
{
    Name     = "psake"
    Version  = "4.4.2"
    Source   = "INTERNAL REPO URL"

  ensure   => '4.4.2',
  provider => 'chocolatey',
  source   => 'INTERNAL REPO URL',

Description

psake is a build automation tool written in PowerShell. It avoids the angle-bracket tax associated with executable XML by leveraging the PowerShell syntax in your build scripts. psake has a syntax inspired by rake (aka make in Ruby) and bake (aka make in Boo), but is easier to script because it leverages your existent command-line knowledge. psake is pronounced sake - as in Japanese rice wine. It does NOT rhyme with make, bake, or rake. You can also install with chocolatey (http://nuget.org/List/Packages/chocolatey) and have global psake.

		<maml:para>---- $psake variable ----</maml:para>
        <maml:para>When the psake module is loaded a variable called $psake is created which is a hashtable
containing some variables:

$psake.version                      # contains the current version of psake
$psake.context                      # holds onto the current state of all variables
$psake.run_by_psake_build_tester    # indicates that build is being run by psake-BuildTester
$psake.config_default               # contains default configuration
                                    # can be overriden in psake-config.ps1 in directory with psake.psm1 or in directory with current build script
$psake.build_success                # indicates that the current build was successful
$psake.build_script_file            # contains a System.IO.FileInfo for the current build script
$psake.build_script_dir             # contains the fully qualified path to the current build script

You should see the following when you display the contents of the $psake variable right after importing psake

PS projects:\psake> Import-Module .\psake.psm1

        <dev:code>A sample build script is shown below:

Task default -Depends Test

Task Test -Depends Compile, Clean {
  "This is a test"
}

Task Compile -Depends Clean {
  "Compile"
}

Task Clean {
  "Clean"
}

The 'default' task is required and should not contain an 'Action' parameter.
It uses the 'Depends' parameter to specify that 'Test' is a dependency

The 'Test' task uses the 'Depends' parameter to specify that 'Compile' and 'Clean' are dependencies
The 'Compile' task depends on the 'Clean' task.

Note:
The 'Action' parameter is defaulted to the script block following the 'Clean' task.

An equivalent 'Test' task is shown below:

Task Test -Depends Compile, Clean -Action {
  $testMessage
}

The output for the above sample build script is shown below:
Executing task, Clean...
Clean
Executing task, Compile...
Compile
Executing task, Test...
This is a test

Build Succeeded!

		  <maml:para>It might be necessary to wrap the condition with paranthesis to force PS to evaluate the condition
so that a boolean value is calculated and passed into the 'conditionToCheck' parameter.

Example:
    Assert 1 -eq 2 "1 doesn't equal 2"

PS will pass 1 into the condtionToCheck variable and PS will look for a parameter called "eq" and
throw an exception with the following message "A parameter cannot be found that matches parameter name 'eq'"

The solution is to wrap the condition in () so that PS will evaluate it first.

    Assert (1 -eq 2) "1 doesn't equal 2"
