I have a webapi project, and I am utilizing the swashbuckle framework to flush out api documentation.
I have followed the directions to build the documentation xml file with my controller and DTO's, and it all works great locally.
However, when generating the swagger document, a 500 error is thrown. I have confirmed if i remove my xml registration line, the swagger doc is generated and returned successfully.
here is my registration line:
GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.EnableSwagger(c =>
{
...
c.IncludeXmlComments($"{System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory}bin\\Company.MyApp.xml");
...
Update: I did some additional logging, and while this lne for IncludeXmlComments runs through successfully on startup, when I request the swagger.json file from the server, I am getting a System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file 'D:\home\site\wwwroot\bin\Monetary.Scheduling.xml' exception. when I use the Kudu tools to look into this directory, I cannot find this file.
TL;DR: Why is this file showing up fine locally, but when I deploy to Azure using Kudu or a Octopus nugget package, this file is not there?
