Replaces custom template upon update
phated opened this issue · 1 comments
It looks like it ignores my custom template when the appveyor.yml
file already exists.
As I'm looking into this and how updater-travis
handles it, it seems like we need more options for it.
Right now, when the appveyor.yml
or .travis.yml
files exists in the current project, the updaters, read that file and update the contents based on the node version specified in the package.json
. Since those files aren't coming from a templates
directory (like they do when creating a new file) the custom template logic isn't triggered.
I can see a couple of different paths to take here:
- when
update appveyor
is run and anappveyor.yml
exists in the cwd- check if a custom template is available and replace the contents
- otherwise, run current update logic
- create a new task to replace the current
appveyor.yml
file with the custom templateupdate appveyor:replace
- make the
default
task do the replace, create a new task to update an existingappveyor.yml
ignoring the custom templateupdate appveyor:update
I like 1 the best and providing information that the custom template is being used will be useful for when people like me forget that I created a custom template.
To make it easier for updaters to access the custom template directory, we can provide a method on app
to get it (if it's not already there).
