Project requires watchdog but documentation does not mention it

[petertiedemann]

If you follow the steps in for example https://github.com/jjcollinge/traefik-on-service-fabric/blob/master/Docs/Deployments/VisualStudio.MD but do not use the "optional" watchdog, then the project will fail to build/package in the later steps. In order to proceed i had to delete all references to the watchdog in the various manifests and project files.

Hi @petertiedemann - thanks for reporting this. I've updated the VS project to exclude any references to the watchdog unless explicitly added. Hope that helps clear up any confusion/issues. PR: feec7dc

@jjcollinge The reason i downloaded traefik manually was because i had problems with the Get-TraefikBinary script. When executed it asks for a url, even though the docs indicates that it will use a pre-defined one unless using the -url option. If no url is entered the result is this:

No watchdog or traefik file is downloaded as far as i can tell.

You are correct, this needs updating - we changed the behaviour to require a URL as the builds should come from the official Traefik repository releases rather than our releases. I will make this clear in the documentation and update the script to reflect the expected behaviour.

@petertiedemann I've updated the script to require a URL and updated the docs accordingly, thanks for flagging this. I'll close this for now - comment if it needs reopening.
