使用visual studio web deploy在asp MVC中部署到azure网站时，某些文件夹不会被推送到服务器

Question

It seems that this problem is not popular that even stackoverflow has no post about it.

I just deployed my MVC 5 web site to Azure Web Site and found out that some of my custom folders are missing, not pushed to the server.

I tried to delete and create the same folder inside visual studio and then redeploy it again, but did not work.

I would like to know if there is a way to manually create a folder inside azure web sites directory? How do we actually edit the root directory manually? anything like control panel for azure web site file management?

Answer 1

Creating empty folders in your code is super simple (I assume you're using C#):

string path = @"Path\To\Folder\You\Want";
Directory.CreateDirectory(path);

If the directory already exists the CreateDirectory call won't do anything

Answer 2

我发现Visual Studio在部署时排除了空文件夹，所以我必须将任何文件放到那些空文件夹中以使visual studio包含它们。
