DeploymentContributorConfigurationStream Class

Represents a streamable version of a configuration file that is used by DacFx in the deployment and build processes. These streams enable deployment extensions to enhance and extend the design and deployment experience. Input configuration files can be defined in a .sqlproj file as part of the MSBuild process. The files are treated as streams, and will be passed to contributors via the OnEstablishDeploymentConfiguration method, where they can be copied as outputs that are stored in the generated dacpac. These streams will then be made available in the OnApplyDeploymentConfiguration, where they can be consumed for configuration and data during deployment. At the end of the OnApplyDeploymentConfiguration method all streams will be disposed. Contributors that need to obtain data from the streams must read and cache the data during this method - attempts to read from the stream during the OnExecute method will fail. Inside a .sqproj file, Deployment Configuration files are specified as follows: <ItemGroup> <DeploymentExtensionConfiguration Include="MyContributorName.MyFileName1.sql" /> <DeploymentExtensionConfiguration Include="MyContributorName.MyFileName2.sql" /> </ItemGroup> Note that configuration streams are accessible to all contributors. Contributors may employ a file naming pattern to identify which input files related to that contributor.
