What's wrong with it?

<Target Name="PostBuild" AfterTargets="PostBuildEvent">
    <Exec Command="dotnet tool restore"/>
    <Exec Command="dotnet swagger tofile --output $(SolutionDir)api.json $(OutputPath)$(AssemblyName).dll v1"/>
</Target>

<Target Name="PostBuild" AfterTargets="PostBuildEvent">
    <Exec Command="dotnet tool restore"/>
    <Exec Command="dotnet swagger tofile --output $(SolutionDir)api.json $(OutputPath)$(AssemblyName).dll v1"/>
</Target>

You have a space in one of your paths?

dotnet swagger tofile --output C:\Users\user\Desktop\RF-V48_4G GPS_tracking_bracelet\navtrack-main\api.json bin\Debug\net6.0\Navtrack.Api.dll v1

ugh I replaced these spaces with underscores but I accidentally left one thanks! @phaseshift is there a way to escape the spaces tho? Perhaps single quotes?

phaseshift•3y ago

Depends what shell the command is running in. Wrap in double quotes is normally ok

HulkstanceOP•3y ago

HulkstanceOP•3y ago

@phaseshift single quotes don't work, just confirmed so does double quotes cuz of the enclosing quotes

phaseshift•3y ago

Yeah, so escape them

HulkstanceOP•3y ago

phaseshift•3y ago

Nope. Google it

HulkstanceOP•3y ago

that works but kinda looks ugly

phaseshift•3y ago

Don't use spaces 🤷‍♂️

HulkstanceOP•3y ago

I feel DevOps when they have to deal with such issues daily

phaseshift•3y ago

Nobody in dev ops puts spaces in paths 😅

don't use msbuild for targets, use Nuke just don't, you're wasting your time

HulkstanceOP•3y ago

@AntonC agreed, I actually use Nuke myself but that's a project I wanted to run
