A windows CLI program that connects to AzureDevops and will trigger a build when you check files into a SVN repository.
Having failed to get the CI trigger for my Azure Devops builds to work with my VisualSVN repository I wrote this small utility to help document the issue for Microsoft.
So, whilst triggering manual builds works perfectly, scheduled builds work fine too - it is just the CI trigger in Azure DevOps that does nothing. After much help from the great team at Microsoft, the problem is caused by the structure of my SVN respository - this utility saves me from restructuring the complete repository.
To user the SvnCI-Trigger you will need to create a PAT (Personal Access Token) in your Azure DevOps account.
To get help for the program, simply run at the command line with the --help option.
--url Required. Base url to Azure DevOps instance
--projects Required. Project name within Azure DevOps, to process multiple projects specify them in a , seperated list
--pat Required. PAT (Personal Access Token)
--svnuser Required.
--svnpassword Required.
--help Display this help screen.
--version Display version information.
If you have multiple builds defined for a project, you can set the build order by adding a variable to each build called buildOrder (Lowest number build first)
