Fake Runner Action
The Fake action runner allows users to extend the functionality of Continua by providing integration with FAKE.
"FAKE - F# Make" is a build automation system with capabilities which are similar to make and rake. Fake uses an easy domain-specific language (DSL) so that you can start using it without specifically learning F#.
For more information about the project and documentation please visit the FAKE Project Website.
Fake Action runner properties Dialog Box
Name
A name for this given step (this will appear within the stage action list).
Enabled
Is this action enabled. A step which is not enabled is effectively skipped when executing the given stage.
Fake File
Optional - Specify the path and name of the Fake file to be used. If no file is specified, then Fake will search the working folder for a file named build.sfx.
Working Folder
Optional - Specify the working folder (relative to the build workspace). If not specified, then the build workspace folder is used. This folder should generally be where the Fake file lives, unless the Fake file is specified.
Fake Target
Optional - The build target which this action should run against. If no target is specified the target designated within your "RunTargetOrDefault" parameter (located within your script file) will be used.
Command Line Options
Optional - Additional command line arguments which will be passed to Fake.
