I tried using the Environment Variable APSNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT in my csproj file as a condition. But it doesn't seem to work.
The code:
<Target Name="NpmInstall" Inputs="$(SpaRoot)/package.json" Outputs="$(SpaRoot)/node_modules/.install-stamp" Condition="$(ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT) != 'Development'">
NVM, appereantly msbuild only takes the system variables but not the ones defined in the debug tab.
Solved it by adding my desired variable to the Global Environment Variables.
Try to wrap the variable in single quotes in the condition, like
Condition="'$(ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT)' != 'Development'">

I have created a GitLab pipeline and predefined variable (type file). That file contains a variable ${myVar} that should not has to be applied before some steps of the job.
I found that when I open that file using cat, the ${myVar} disappeared. Looks like it was applied but with an empty string since its content has not yet been generated.
Question: how to tell GitLab CI to ignore variables in the variable file
The issue is fixed. All you need to do is to add one more $ sign before the variable. Hence instead of ${myVar} you need to specify $${myVar} in this case GitLab CI will not apply the variable
As of Gitlab 13.7 you can disable variable expansion for the variable (enabled by default). See:
https://gitlab.nposervices.com/help/ci/variables/index#expand-cicd-variables
I have an info.plist file with variables inside, such as ${PRODUCT_NAME} or ${EXECUTABLE_NAME}.
Where does there variables reference to?
And how do I know these variables will be converted into what string by Xcode?
Here is the answer,
$(PRODUCT_BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER) and $(PRODUCT_NAME) comes from,
And ${EXECUTABLE_NAME} is concatenation of:
$EXECUTABLE_PREFIX, $PRODUCT_NAME and $EXECUTABLE_SUFFIX.
All are in Build Settings.
I have a environment variable admin_path=/home/myfolder/server. now I need to get the parent path base on the $admin_path in shell script. how can I get it easily? thank you
It's not entirely clear what you want, but I think you are looking for:
${admin_path%/*}
to get the value of admin_path with the trailing path component removed.
Where should the trailing semicolon in the Windows PATH environment variable be placed when adding a new folder?
Is it
[oldPATH];C:\My Folder
[oldPATH]C:\My Folder;
[oldPATH];C:\My Folder;
?
I saw different practices.
This is not really a syntax thing, actually. The correct answer here is: Place the semicolon so the result is a valid PATH.
This usually means one of the following:
set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Foo\Bar
set PATH=C:\Foo\Bar;%PATH%
because usually PATH doesn't end in a semicolon, so you have to add one appropriately to not mangle an existing path in it.
Just look at how PATH looks like and consider what you need to do if you add another path. This means you have to add a separator (the semicolon) and the path itself.
The first one. At least thats what Windows does on mine, so if Windows does it that way then that will probably be best :)
The first one:
[oldPATH]; C:\My Folder.
If you want to be sure, you can use the formula:
"%PATH%;C:\My Folder".
If it is only to execute something in, for example, a BAT script, use:
SET PATH "%PATH%;C:\My Folder".
(this one will be working just as a temporal variable)
To add a permanent User Enviroment Variable through command line:
SETX PATH "%PATH%;C:\My Folder".
Your oldPATH may end with semicolon, so when using fourth style [newPath];[OldPath] you don't add double semicolons.
path=%cd%;%path%
Note that windows doesn't care whether you write commands upper- or lowercase.
i am trying to add an evironment variable to a path inside an ini file, the variable is the current username in Windows which can be accessed via %username%.
so i would like to do path = c:\users\[username variable]\ ...
Will appreciate anyhelp
Use ExpandEnvironmentStrings().
