Dnn Module Packaging Question

I have folders inside a module which I developed and there are many files inside them.

  • How can I package the folders with files?
  • Should I archive the folders in a zip file? If so, how can I extract them again?
Solution

  • You have a few options.

    1. Include a resources.zip file, that will be extracted for you upon installation, just be sure to include the resources.zip in your .dnn file list.
    2. If you are using a DNN 5.x manifest, you could keep the folder structure within the module and just use the folder names items in the 5.x manifest.
