ReleaseDateAttribute - Gets an UTC DateTime of compile time. Allows us to determine the build date/time

Blog Post/Additional Information: How To Display the Build Date of a .NET Application

Samples:

• Assignment of GetReleaseDate() to a local variable

  DateTime? date = IntelliTect.Multitool.ReleaseDateAttribute.GetReleaseDate(); // Returns a datetime in UTC to date

• Displaying GetReleaseDate() on a cshtml page

  // This example is in cshtml.
  @IntelliTect.Multitool.ReleaseDateAttribute.GetReleaseDate() // Returns a datetime in UTC

• Converting and displaying GetReleaseDate() on a cshtml page

  // convert this UTC DateTime object into one for my local timezone that is formatted in a “d MMM, yyyy h:mm:ss tt” (ex: 8 Feb, 2023 11:36:31 AM).
  // The following code will format the date and convert it to my local time zone of Pacific Standard Time. 
  Build: @if (IntelliTect.Multitool.ReleaseDateAttribute.GetReleaseDate() is DateTime date)
  {
    @TimeZoneInfo.ConvertTimeFromUtc(date, TimeZoneInfo.FindSystemTimeZoneById("Pacific Standard Time")).ToString("d MMM, yyyy h:mm:ss tt", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)
  }
  // Result is "Build: 8 Feb, 2023 11:36:31 AM"

RepositoryPaths - Provides consistent environment-independent normalized pathing within a git repository

Samples:

• Get file path from the root of a repository

  // In this case, the GetDefaultRepoRoot() method can be used to get the root of a repository.
  string fullPathToTheFile = Path.Combine(IntelliTect.Multitool.RepositoryPaths.GetDefaultRepoRoot(), "TheFile.txt");
