<Component>
<!-- An optional friendly name for the component --> <FriendlyName></FriendlyName> <!-- Optional configuration to customise component detection --> <Detection> <!-- Specifies the method used to detect the availability of the component Can be one of: - Automatic: The default method when none is specified. Attempts to automatically detect the component by retrieving the list of installed programs from the Windows Registry and searching for a case insensitive wildcard match against the component name. The matching logic can be customised via the optional <MatchRegEx>, <MatchCase> and <MatchPattern> elements. - FindInPath: Determines the availability based on the presence of a nominated binary located in a directory found in the system's PATH. Defaults to searching for a binary with the same name as the component directory but this can be customised via the <FindBinary> element. - Static: Use the availability state provided in the <Availability> element. --> <Method></Method> <!-- Selects either wildcard (default) or regular expression matching --> <MatchRegEx>False</MatchRegEx> <!-- Selects either case insensitive (default) or case sensitive matching --> <MatchCase>False</MatchCase> <!-- The pattern used for matching against the Windows Registry keys. If undefined or blank we'll match against any Registry key where the component name is a substring of the key. --> <MatchPattern></MatchPattern> <!-- Name of binary to search for in the system's PATH if using the FindInPath method --> <FindBinary></FindBinary> <!-- Only used when the detection method is "Static" in which case this is required Can be one of: - Available: The component was detected - Unavailable: The component was not detected - Ignored: The component will be ignored. This is distinct from the "Unavailable" state as it indicates the component is not available for the platform. - AlwaysInstall: The component will always be installed - NeverInstall: The component will never be installed - DetectionFailure: A failure occurred during component detection - NoLogic: No detection logic was available --> <Availability></Availability> </Detection> <!-- Optional configuration to customise component installation path --> <InstallPath> <!-- Specifies a special folder from the Environment.SpecialFolder enumeration This setting can be used in two ways to modify the destination for symlinking: - If no <Destination> is specified the component will be symlinked directly into the specified special folder. - If a <Destination> is specified it will be used as a *suffix* to the nominated special folder. That is, the <Destination> path is relative to the special folder. The default behaviour is particularly important to note: - If not specified the default is to use the "UserProfile" special folder ($HOME). - If a <Destination> folder is specified without a <SpecialFolder> then *no* special folder is used and <Destination> is considered to be an absolute path. See: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.environment.specialfolder.aspx --> <SpecialFolder></SpecialFolder> <!-- Specifies an absolute or relative destination path subject to <SpecialFolder> This setting specifies an absolute or relative filesystem path as the destination for component symlinking. The path is considered absolute *only if* no <SpecialFolder> is specified. Otherwise, this path is considered to be relative to the special folder. If no <Destination> is specified then only the <SpecialFolder> path will be used. --> <Destination></Destination> <!-- Specifies whether component symlinks should be hidden by setting the "Hidden" and "System" file attributes. The default is not to hide newly created symbolic links. --> <HideSymlinks>False</HideSymlinks> </InstallPath> <!-- Optional configuration of relative paths which should be ignored --> <IgnorePaths> <!-- Each relative path to ignore should be placed in a <Path> element --> <Path></Path> </IgnorePaths> </Component> |
