NAPS2.Tools

Tools for NAPS2 building, testing, packaging, verification, etc.

How to run

You will need the latest .NET SDK. Open a terminal in your NAPS2 solution directory and run the following commands:

Powershell

function n2 { dotnet run -p:LangVersion=preview --project NAPS2.Tools -- $args }
n2 build all

Bash

alias n2="dotnet run -p:LangVersion=preview --project NAPS2.Tools --"
n2 build all

Commands

Run n2 help for a full list of commands and n2 help <command> for all options for a particular command. Some examples:

n2 clean
n2 test
n2 build exe
n2 pkg exe
n2 verify exe
n2 publish exe
n2 virus exe
n2 share

• clean: Clear out bin/obj subfolders
• test: Run solution tests
• build: Builds the solution with the specified configuration (debug/exe/msi/zip/all)
• pkg: Generates the specified package type, e.g. exe => naps2-{version}-win-x64.exe installer
• verify: Installs/extracts the packaged file and runs NAPS2.App.Tests against it
  • Requires elevation for exe/msi as it does a real install on your local machine (and uninstalls the old NAPS2)
• publish: Runs a series of commands: clean, test, build, pkg, verify
• virus: Uploads a package to VirusTotal for a false positive check
• share: Syncs local packages with a cloud folder (to help with cross-platform packaging)
