MSdeploy skip root webconfig

I was able to skip deploying webconfig on root folder by following approach MsDeploy Skip Root Web Config deployment only

However i have another folder containing web.config apart from "views" folder which needs to be negated from skip arguement. I tried following which seems to be incorrect regular expression and didnot work

absolutePath="(?<!Views|Configs)\\Web\.config"

where Configs is the folder containing webconfig file. what should be right one

Solution

  • I got it working by this

    absolutePath="(?<!Views)(?<!Configs)\\Web\.config"
