[Question] Selection of Apps when creating a Release

[StefanMaron]

I am wondering how the release action selects the apps to include in that release in a multi Project repository.
Sometimes I have multiple changes on 2 of the 3 projects but only one apps gets included in the release.
I was not really able to find any logic on how the apps get selected yet.

The intention should be that it would grab the latest build from all projects (if no specific version was specified)
I assume that this doesn't happen?

[StefanMaron]

Specific version? That explains why it would grab one project only. I copied the version from one extension.

But last time I tried, the version for the release was mandatory. How would I create a release without a specific version?

[freddydk]

Create release should allow you to say latest:

workflow_dispatch:

    inputs:
      appVersion:
        description: App version to promote to release (default is latest)
        required: false
        default: 'latest'

[StefanMaron]

ah, I was talking about name and tag.
The App version is always latest.
but most of the time the latest build only built one project.

[freddydk]

This might be a bug.
For now, you can probably set "alwaysBuildAllProjects": true in the repo settings file (.github\AL-Go-Settings.json) - then it should build all projects every time - and probably release them as well.

[StefanMaron]

Okay, thanks.
Let me know if I can give any more input.

[freddydk]

I think I will need to make an overhaul on the multi-project repo - I have found a few things.
That might be after my vacation (which starts tomorrow)

[freddydk]

Have a fix for this.
Will be in the preview branch tomorrow.

[freddydk]

This fix is in preview now.
