Hello everyone, especially add-on developers:
I recently experimented with continuous integration for two of my
add-ons (Crash hero, and notepad++ which I'll hopefuly initiate a review
process for in the coming weeks). I decided to see about getting this
into the add-on template, and here are my results!!! To use this, place
appVeyor.yml and other files in the root of the add-on (Assuming you
use the template). Now just make sure
appVeyor has your project setup, and push. Two artifacts will be
generated for each push, (blablabla-version.nvda-addon, and
blablabla.pot. The pot file is your translatable strings (That generate
a .po file, and which you place in lc_messages inside your add-on
folder. The add-on file can be downloaded directly. Also, if you are
using github, when you push a tag, your add-on will be deployed to the
releases page of github. This is not a replacement for testing locally,
but might be helpful to some. Also,,, if you host your add-on on a ssh
server, you could integrate it with this. Note thazt you have to
generate a token with github, and encrypt it on your account page and
put it on the line that says secure. My encrypted token is there as an
example (It's encrypted, so there's no issue with this being public).
