packer CLI reference

ModularPipelines.Packer provides strongly typed access to the packer CLI.

Installation

dotnet add package ModularPipelines.Packer

Resolve the service with context.Tools.Packer. For projects older than C# 14, import ModularPipelines.Packer.Extensions and use the context.Packer() extension method as a compatibility fallback.

Module example

using ModularPipelines.Context;
using ModularPipelines.Models;
using ModularPipelines.Modules;
using ModularPipelines.Packer.Options;

public class RunCommandModule : Module<CommandResult>
{
    protected override async Task<CommandResult> ExecuteAsync(
        IModuleContext context,
        CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        return await context.Tools.Packer.ConsoleAsync(
            new PackerConsoleOptions(),
            cancellationToken: cancellationToken);
    }
}
