How to set MSDeploy settings in .csproj file

Is there a way to set MSDeploy parameters in .csproj file itself of ASP.NET MVC project? Particularly a “skip” parameter, which should skip a “Temp” folder.

-skip:objectName=dirPath,absolutePath="\temp"

.. or how can I pass this parameter into MSBuild.exe arguments list?

Method 1

Define <MsDeploySkipRules> in the project file. For example:

<Project xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">
  <PropertyGroup>
    <OnBeforePackageUsingManifest>AddSkipRules</OnBeforePackageUsingManifest>
  </PropertyGroup>
  <Target Name="AddSkipRules">
    <ItemGroup>
      <MsDeploySkipRules Include="SkipTempDirOnDeploy">
        <SkipAction></SkipAction>
        <ObjectName>dirPath</ObjectName>
        <AbsolutePath>$(_Escaped_PackageTempDir)\Temp$</AbsolutePath>
        <XPath></XPath>
      </MsDeploySkipRules>
    </ItemGroup>
  </Target>
</Project>
