I would like to add some extra files for use by an MVC web site when publishing an Azure Web Role. I use node.js to concatenate and minify certain javascript files that I use. Once minified I place them in a folder called "Built" that I place in the scripts folder. I would like to add this folder to the package that is published.
How do I add extra files when publishing to an Azure Web Role?
I do not want to use this method as I don't want these files added to source control.

I am working on a windows store app, one of the workflows within the app would allow the user to export a report in html format. The html report relies on a css file so I would like to ensure that the install process could deploy the file in a local folder. If not I would need to read out the file from the assets folder (within the install bundle) and manually write it out but that seems pretty kludgy

mentions that "The Documents library is not intended for general use." so would require use through file picker but I would prefer to be able to export the document without user intervention without additional store approval headaches (apparently adding Documents library capability to manifest requires additional Microsoft store approval).
Questions
When I create files within the store app it seems the location options are limited and I can only write to Localfolder (which is actually hidden and users cannot easily get to it) - There must be a way to create a file within the MyDocuments directory that is easily accessible by users but looks like that is off limits to a windows store app? So what is the best approach to write reports to storage that can be easily accessed by users
How can one deploy files to a specific directory during install time? Assuming there are some installer commands/manifest directives that would allow this capability?
Or maybe there is a entirely different mechanism to allow for this functionality within the store app and I am just looking in all the wrong places...
I have a process that generates a set of HTML files and subfolder containing CSS/Javascript files.
I thought I could use the publish-pipeline-artifact to publish this HTML report and have it displayed but it doesn't work.

Is there another way ?
Azure DevOps can understand a report if it is in the format of a format called TRX.
Once the report is generated, you can upload using the Azure DevOps workflow function
For html report, one way would be deploy the html files to a web page which allow iframe embedding and then use "Embedded Webpage" widget in Azure DevOps to show the content.
I think you meant something like what in this feature request is asked.
I am trying to create a portfolio disc to sell my photos and to protect my work. I want to put my web site that i created into one exe so that my photos can't be stolen as an extra precaution. I know to use the webBrowser.navigate command with the internet controls but how do I add the web site directory to the exe to make it run in one file? I don't want to install it on the user's computer. Just operate the site's directory from the home page all through 1 exe file. I know its possible to do. I have seen apps like HTMLexe that will convert them for you but the free apps i have found won't allow the javascript and css files to run. Some won't even do it without buying the full premimum version of the software. How can I code this myself?
I have successfully created tasks using the box-api v2 on files. However, I often need to create a task in a folder, e.g. for someone to upload a file to the folder, not simply review a file in that folder.
It doesn't appear to be possible now, is that true? if so, any plans to make that possible?
It's not possible to assign a task to a folder via the API or the Box web application. I don't believe Box has any current plans to add tasks either via the web or programmatically.

I have a java swing based UI which I use to monitor a filesystem folder. Anytime a new file is added to the folder, i upload it onto my web server.
I'd like to drop the java interface and go for a web app with a simple file uploader UI where the user can see the files being upoaded and which were uploaded.
The workflow;
User open browser. Opens the web app page. Browses and selects the local filesystem folder which needs to be monitored. Over the hours as the new files are added to the local folder, they are shown in the web interface and get uploaded onto the server.
My question is what all technologies can i use to implement this. I already have the HTMl based web Ui ready. I now need to monitor(/sync?) a selected local folder. what all do i need to do that. I remember there was something created by google which allowed a background process to monitor folders.
regards
To my knowledge I do not think its possible from the browser because of security concerns. You'll need to rely on client software. You could provide your Java app as a software, similar to Dropbox.
