Cake.Issues.MsBuild

The MsBuild support for the Cake.Issues addin allows you to read issues logged as warnings in a MsBuild log. This addin provides the aliases for reading MsBuild warnings and providing them to the Cake.Issues addin. It also requires the core Cake.Issues addin. There are also additional addins for generating reports or posting issues to pull requests. See cakeissues.net for an overview of the whole ecosystem of addins for working with issues in Cake scripts.

You can add the logger to the MSBuildSettings like this:

        Context.Tools.Resolve("MSBuild.ExtensionPack.Loggers.dll").FullPath,
        "XmlFileLogger",
        string.Format(
            "logfile=\"{0}\";verbosity=Detailed;encoding=UTF-8",
            @"c:\build\msbuild.log")
    );

In order to use the above logger, include the following in your build.cake file to download and install from NuGet.org: 

#tool "nuget:?package=MSBuild.Extension.Pack"
