Possible Enhancement: Specify external source for recipes, prefs and extra files

Open gavinliu0 opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Pass a path to CMPackager.ps1 to look for recipes, extra files, and the preference file. This would allow people to manage their own recipes and preferences outside of this repo.

Use cases:

  • Recipes may contain sensitive data and cannot be shared
  • Using installer/uninstaller scripts instead of direct commands in the deployment types

In general it might be a better idea to completely split out the recipes, but that is a much bigger undertaking.

So what I do now, is exclude the recipes folder using .gitignore, so you can always keep the packager up-to-date, but not have any of your recipes shared/messed up with git. Does this not fit your situation?
