I want to use the Web Platform Installer to perform installations and manage dependencies, but because we store version information in a database, the options for discovery that are supported by the WPI won’t work for us.

Based on what I’ve learned so far setting up a custom feed, I don’t even know how you would inject any sort of custom logic into the application, but I thought I’d better throw a question out here before I give up.

Is it possible to add custom logic for how the Web Platform Installer discovers which services have been installed?

Thanks!

    As far as I’ve been able to tell, this is not possible. We ended up coming up with a custom solution to fit our needs.

    For those interested, chocolatey (http://nuget.org/List/Packages/chocolatey) is another great utility for custom installations.
