How to build

Using the build script

Wyam uses Cake to handle scripted build activities. Right now, Wyam2 is Windows-only (both build and execution). If you just want to build Wyam2 and all the extensions, run

build.cmd

If you want to build and run tests, run

build.cmd -target Run-Unit-Tests

You can also clean the build by running

build.cmd -target Clean

or run directly the Powershell script build.ps1:

.\build.ps1 -Target Run-Unit-Tests
.\build.ps1 -Verbosity diagnostic

and pass custom cake parameters:

.\build.ps1 -Target Create-Packages -Verbosity diagnostic -CakeParams "--gittag=v3.0.0" | Out-File 'build.log'

From Visual Studio

If you want to open and build Wyam2 from Visual Studio, the main solution is in the root folder as Wyam.sln.
