Project Clean-up and Updates
So, this is probably going to look like a block of changes and red, but I'll give a quick synopsis for you to figure out if it's worth pulling or not.
I removed the unit testing project since it wasn't being used.
I removed several references that didn't appear to be actually used anywhere in the code base and updated all of the NuGet packages to the more recent versions. I enabled NuGet Package Restore and removed the checking in libraries in lieu of downloading them at compile time.
I couldn't get the psake builds to run without an error, so I just replaced them with a simple msbuild launcher.
I'm trying to figure out whether I want to revamp some of the code in AutoBot to suit my usages (my co-worker really wants to run Hubot on a VM, but I just feel the need to reinvent the wheel sometimes).
I went ahead and swapped in TopShelf for installing and running the windows service as a console app, which you had done manually.
Hi Matt,
Thanks for this, I've taken a break over Easter so will pick this up this week. Most of your commits seem worthy at first glance so I don't foresee any issues pulling them in. However moving forward I would like to ask if you would be keen to work with me (and another co-author) to formalise and plan the direction of AutoBot, what I don't want to happen is committers to invest a lot of time and effort all pulling against each other or not on a common track. I'd like to suggest that we manage this through GitHub issues and wiki? FYI I have also made a request to teamcity.codebetter.com to get a build on their TeamCity server, thus the formalisation of the MIT license you'll see I've just added.
Thanks,
Lloyd
Lloyd,
I'll be happy to help out where I can, but I've got a few other projects in flight and kind of kicked around contributions to AutoBot on a lark. I'll keep an eye on things and see what you guys figured out-- there seems to be a good bit of work to get this streamlined and functional.
Hope these changes help, or at least they made my OCD feel better!
