[Anthill] How do I tell Anthill what my build artifact dir is ?

[varban]

Hi Marcio,

I am afraid that you have to publish the files that you want using your 
build script.
Let's say that you have a directory .../builds/reports that you would 
like to make available in the AnthillOS UI.
In order to do that you need a task in your build script (or another 
build script) that will be executed at the end of the build and will 
read the publishDir property that AnthillOs passes to ant and copy the 
.../builds/reports to the location that the publishDir points to. Then 
whatever you copied over will be available in the UI.
The reasoning behind that is to be able to control what is available in 
the UI, not just publish the whole build directory.

Regards,
Varban
