Building

To build this project without installing Visual Studio, follow these steps:

Setup

  1. Download and install "Build Tools for Visual Studio" from https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/ (scroll down, it's under "All downloads")
  2. Run Visual Studio Installer. Under the "Individual components" tab check ".NET Framework 4.6.1 targeting pack"
    • On the right, under "Installation details" it should show "MSBuild Tools" and "Individual components" with "C# and Visual Basic Roslyn compilers" and ".NET Framework 4.6.1 targeting pack" listed.
  3. Click the install button
    • You should see "MSBuild.exe" in a path similar to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\BuildTools\MSBuild\Current\Bin
  4. Download NuGet from https://www.nuget.org/downloads
    • You want the recommended download from the left side under "Windows x86 Commandline"

Build

  1. Clone this repo and navigate to VirusTotalUploader/VirusTotal Uploader/VirusTotal Uploader/. You should see VirusTotal Uploader.sln in this directory.
  2. Run nuget restore to gather the required dependencies
  3. Run msbuild "VirusTotal Uploader.sln"
  4. The compiled .exe is in VirusTotalUploader/VirusTotal Uploader/VirusTotal Uploader/bin/Debug along with its dependencies.
    • The first time building the project after a change it may give a few warnings. Rebuilding without making more changes usually results in 0 warnings.

You may now move and run VirusTotal Uploader.exe from anywhere you'd like, just as long as the accompaning files are in the same directory as the exe. You may also delete the app.publish directory along with its contents.
