Install / Upgrade AL extension from Server A -> Server B (using script)
idonav
Member Posts: 31
Hi,
I have a build server (SERVER A below) that compiles and builds my AL code, though, I would like to further automate this by deploying the created .app file to a separate remote server (SERVER B below).
Can someone point me in the right direction of where to look? So basically (Assume that the below servers can talk to each other).
SERVER A: Code is built. Should be automatically deployed to SERVER B using a script.
SERVER B: Runs NAV. Standard three tier setup.
I have no issues writing a script that installs / upgrades an AL .app running on SERVER B, eg the server running nav, though I want to push my code from SERVER A to SERVER B (C, D, E, F, G, etc).
Would be great if someone could point me in the right direction.
Similar question:

A new version of navcontainerhelper has been released, and it partly covers the issue, https://github.com/microsoft/navcontainerhelper/blob/master/AppHandling/Publish-NavContainerApp.ps1
I've refactored the script to use it for my purpose, (eg have a look at the useDevEndpoint and you'll understand). But that only covers the first installation, upgrading an app and running upgrade codeunits does not seem to work, the only option as I see it is to recreate it completely. Eg not suitable for production environments, making ut "useless" from a CI/CD perspective.
