Web project that can perform a custom retention policy for MyGet feeds. Uses webhooks to trigger whenever a new package is added to a feed.
The idea of this application is to create a custom retention policy. Therefore, it is recommended to customize the logic in RetentionController. Next, deploy to a web server, for example Microsoft Azure Websites.
Two settings are available as utilities, and may (or may not) be used by your custom code:
Signature:NuGetFeedApiKey- API key for performing operations on the feed that triggers the web hook
For the MyGet feed you wish to run this application's logic on, configure a new HTTP Post webhook. The following options must be configured:
- URL to POST JSON data to - URL to the deployed application's API endpoint, for example
http://customretention.azurewebsites.net/api/retention(do not forget the/api/retention) - Content type - set to
application/json - Events that trigger this web hook - make sure that only
Package Addedis selected
From now on, all packages that are added to your feed will trigger the logic implemented in this application.
Refer the MyGet documentation on webhooks to learn about the different events that can trigger a web hook application which performs custom logic.
