In MSBuild you can data drive target dependencies by passing a item group into a target, like so:
<ItemGroup>
<FullBuildDependsOn Include="Package;CoreFinalize"
Condition="@(FullBuildDependsOn) == ''" />
</ItemGroup>
<Target Name="FullBuild"
DependsOnTargets="@(FullBuildDependsOn)" />
If you don't override the FullBuildDependsOn
item group, the FullBuild target defaults to depending on the Package and CoreFinalize targets. However, you can override this by defining your own FullBuildDependsOn item group.
I'd like to do the same in psake - for example:
properties {
$FullBuildDependsOn = "Package", "CoreFinalize"
}
task default -depends FullBuild
# this won't work because $FullBuildDependsOn hasn't been defined yet - the "Task" function will see this as a null depends array
task FullBuild -depends $FullBuildDependsOn
What do I need to do to data drive the task dependencies in psake?
