Will Transfer Files action support sever variables in the 3.7 release?
-
I've been setting up shared actions in all environments in my workflow and discovered that on Unix environments SVN is only available on dev environments and will not be placed on any other environments. I use SVN to get the latest copy of our deployment scripts prior to doing a release.
Options are:
-
Include deployment scripts as artifacts
pro: changes not impact release in progress
con: scripts in state of flux and if hit bug have to redeploy to all environments to get back to the one we are deploying to -
Always get scripts from SVN to the master and use transfer files action to place them in the correct location. However as these actions are shared across environments the transfer files action needs an upgrade to support server variables.
Is there a preferred way to handle this?
Will the Transfer Files action support server variables any time soon?

You should be able to use a variable server by editing the action's config xml, and replacing it with %VARNAME%; however, this is not supported in the editor, and will break once upgraded to 4.0. But, it will work.
The Variable Server in XFer Files will be available in 4.0.
