Build tasks for Release Management 2015

Posted by Daniel Mann - August 14, 2015

I think I might be obsessed with the new build system. I was getting bored with blogging about it, so I took a break... to write some custom tasks for interacting with Release Management.

There are two tasks:

RMAgentRelease
TokenManager

These just replicate the behavior that was built into the Release Default Template in TFS2013 -- the Token Manager allows you to swap your tokenized files with the non-tokenized versions, and the Agent Release task lets you kick off a new release from the new build system. It's pretty straightforward!

I'll get around to adding one for vNext releases soon.

To install them, just clone the repo and follow the instructions in the README.md file.

You can grab them from the InCycle GitHub repo. Feedback is always appreciated!
