Error when publishing to custom output path

[Petar Petrov]

Publishing with -o, --output <OUTPUT_DIR> option breaks the PublishDotNetJS task.

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk.BlazorWebAssembly">
	<PropertyGroup>
		<OutputType>Exe</OutputType>
		<TargetFramework>net6.0</TargetFramework>
		<ImplicitUsings>enable</ImplicitUsings>
		<Nullable>enable</Nullable>
	</PropertyGroup>
	<ItemGroup>
		<PackageReference Include="DotNetJS" Version="0.23.1" />
	</ItemGroup>
</Project>

using Microsoft.JSInterop;

Console.WriteLine("Hello, World!");

.NET 7 is not supported for now.

.NET 7 is not supported for now.

Same thing happens in .NET 6.

[Petar Petrov]

Same problem maybe ? - #16

[Artyom Sovetnikov]

Maybe related to this: https://github.com/Elringus/DotNetJS/blob/main/DotNet/DotNetJS/Build/DotNetJS.targets#L24

[Artyom Sovetnikov]

I was able to reproduce the issue, but not sure how to better fix it; probably something to do with the build targets. PRs are welcome.

[Petar Petrov]

If you change the PublishDotNetJS task's PublishDir and BlazorOutDir properties to PublishDir="$(PublishDir)/publish" and BlazorOutDir="$(PublishDir)/wwwroot/_framework" maybe? I don't have time to test it.

[Artyom Sovetnikov]

Yeah, I've tried tampering with that, but no luck. Don't really have time for this as well, unfortunately. Will get back to it later, unless someone will find a solution.
