Known Zesk Build Artifacts

These are files which are generated by Zesk Build for various purposes.

🛠️ Guide · ⬅ Home

.build/ Directory

A .build/ directory is created at a configured location set by the environment variable BUILD_CACHE. If not set, it uses XDG_CACHE_HOME directory, which defaults to a standard directory.

You can preserve the build directory post-build to see any details. Most failures will still output the log, but they will not be output to your primary build log unless a failure occurs.

.deploy/ Directory

A top-level .deploy directory is created for build steps and contains metadata about the deployment. This is always created in the project root and the expectation is that it will be included in any deployments as metadata (not required, however).

.build.env

A docker-compatible .env file which is:

  • Generated by phpBuild
  • Used by deployBuildEnvironment if present
  • Zesk Build generates for own build (by bin/build.sh)

.deprecated

Log of deprecated calls made and their stacks. This file will grow infinitely and is intended to annoy you.

Remove these calls ASAP. One run of bin/build/deprecated.sh on your code will likely fix it. See _deprecated

.interrupt.log

Product of bashDebugInterruptFile and the process receiving an INT or ERR signal.

.test.state

Someone ran testSuite --debug. This is for debugging testSuite test state. Delete it freely. See testSuite --debug This file is an environment file used to pass state to hooks.
