Where do I place additional files?

[DennisL68]

Where do I place additional static data files so that they will be part of the module such as .json, .xml, .png etc.?

I.e. files that I would normally specify in the .psd1 file of the module.

# List of all files packaged with this module
# FileList = @()

I tried adding a file by hand in the output folder, hoping that .\build.ps1 pack would include it and then including it in the manifest file, but that failed as pack cleans the output folder first.

# List of all files packaged with this module
FileList = @('files\data.json')

ERROR: Module manifest file validation failed with error: The specified FileList entry 'files\data.json' in the module manifest '...\CompleteSample\output\module\CompleteSample\0.0.1\CompleteSample.psd1' is invalid. Try again after updating this entry with valid values..

The Test-ModuleManifest .\CompleteSample.psd1 tests successfully if run before pack removes my added file from the output folder.
