Navcontainerhelper: Error running Create-AlProjectFolderFromNavContainer

[MikeGlue]

Get the following error when using Create-AlProjectFolderFromNavContainer:

It does look like it copies some of the files to the right folders. For example, it copied 58 codeunits, 28 pages, and 25 tables. A few others as well.

Container was created using the AL app-only sandbox master US insider image:

New-NavContainer -containerName $containerName `
    -accept_eula `
    -auth "NavUserPassword" `
    -Credential $credential `
    -imageName $imageName `
    -licenseFile $licenseFile `
    -alwaysPull `
    -shortcuts "Desktop" `
    -restart no `
    -updateHosts `
    -assignPremiumPlan `
    -useBestContainerOS `
    -includeAL

Here is what I'm running......cannot figure out what is wrong:

$containerName = 'bc15app'
$alProjectFolder = "C:\ProgramData\NavContainerHelper\Extensions\$containerName\objects\al"

$myModifiedObjects = @()

$alFileStructure = { Param ([string] $type, [int] $id, [string] $name) 
    if ($myModifiedObjects.Contains("$type$id")) {
        $folder = "Modified"
    }
    elseif (($id -ge 50000 -and $id -le 59999) -or ($id -gt 1999999999)) {
        $folder = "My"
    }
    else {
        $folder = "BaseApp"
    }

    switch ($type) {
        "page"     { "$folder\Pages\$($name).al" }
        "table"    { "$folder\Tables\$($name).al" }
        "codeunit" { "$folder\Codeunits\$($name).al" }
        "query"    { "$folder\Queries\$($name).al" }
        "report"   { "$folder\Reports\$($name).al" }
        "xmlport"  { "$folder\XmlPorts\$($name).al" }
        "profile"  { "$folder\Profiles\$($name).al" }
        "dotnet"   { "$folder\$($name).al" }
        ".rdlc"    { "$folder\Layouts\$($name).rdlc" }
        ".docx"    { "$folder\Layouts\$($name).docx" }
        ".xlf"     { "$folder\$($name).xlf" }
        default { throw "Unknown type '$type'" }
    }
}

Create-AlProjectFolderFromNavContainer -containerName $containerName `
                                       -alProjectFolder $alProjectFolder `
                                       -name "BaseApp" `
                                       -publisher "Microsoft" `
                                       -version "15.0.0.0" `
                                       -useBaseLine `
                                       -alFileStructure $alFileStructure

Could you put a Write-Host in the alFileStructure function and see which file is the problematic one - and maybe email me the last and next file?

[freddydk]

I have a repro - will fix this.

Seems like some new types have been introduced lately, that the copy-sources didn't expect.
Also your function will have to support these:

    switch ($type) {
        "enum"           { "$folder\Enums\$($name).al" }
        "enumextension"  { "$folder\Enums\$($name).al" }
        "page"           { "$folder\Pages\$($name).al" }
        "pageextension"  { "$folder\Pages\$($name).al" }
        "table"          { "$folder\Tables\$($name).al" }
        "tableexension"  { "$folder\Tables\$($name).al" }
        "codeunit"       { "$folder\Codeunits\$($name).al" }
        "query"          { "$folder\Queries\$($name).al" }
        "report"         { "$folder\Reports\$($name).al" }
        "xmlport"        { "$folder\XmlPorts\$($name).al" }
        "profile"        { "$folder\Profiles\$($name).al" }
        "dotnet"         { "$folder\$($name).al" }
        ".rdlc"          { "$folder\Layouts\$($name).rdlc" }
        ".docx"          { "$folder\Layouts\$($name).docx" }
        ".xlf"           { "$folder\$($name).xlf" }
        default { throw "Unknown type '$type'" }
    }

This was also the reason for not blogging about this yet - wanted to make sure I could support all types:-)
New containerhelper will be available tomorrow with this support.
Blog post about this - this week.
New insider builds with 15.x probably tomorrow as well on bcinsider.

Fixed in 0.6.2.9

Freddy,

i am running on the 0.6.2.9

but i do get the error on a | symbol in the filename:

Should this be fixed already? else i will myself remove the not accepted symbols for the filesystem.

[freddydk]

Seems unrelated to the other bug.
You shouldn't post new questions on closed issues, chances er nobody sees them.
Better to open another issue.
Is that an object with a | in the name?
