我可以让Visual Studio 2013在“文件保存”上运行Powershell命令吗？

Question

I have a powershell window constantly open, so that when I'm making edits to files that don't require recompile (like angular pages, Views, configs, images, etc), I can just run a command (I call it 'Sync'), and it will copy over the files I changed to my build directory, without having to do a Build.

Is it possible to have Visual Studio run that command when I do a Ctrl + S , or Ctrl + Shift + S ? The amount of time to Alt + Tab to the new window, run the command, then tab to the browser, seems inconsequential, but I do it dozens, if not hundreds, of times a day, and I know it would save time.

Answer 1

I'm not aware of an easy way to do this completely automatically on file save, but you may be able save yourself some trouble by using External Tools (under Tools / External Tools).

It's possible to substitute macros for things like the full path to the current file, etc. You get a menu item under Tools, and you can assign a keyboard shortcut to it.

Answer 2

Sounds like a job for a Visual Studio add-in. See this blog post by Scott Hanselman on how to write one.
