I want to copy a folder that’s contained in another project into the publish

  • 0

I want to copy a folder that’s contained in another project into the publish directory during website publish, is this possible?

The reason for this is that I have a project with the SQL schema files for creating the database structure, ASP.NET membership schema, alongside some code to run the files against the database. I don’t really like having these SQL files in my web project, that just seemed dirty. So I figured I’d store them somewhere else in the solution. But when I deploy I do need them in the publish directory.

    Why not place these scripts in App_data? It will be deployed along with the rest of the website, and cannot be accessed via client web browsers. That’s what it is there for, to store data associated with your website that you don’t want to have in the root for security purposes.
