Description

Hello team, I would like to ask you about the deployment of project that consists from multiple libraries. Typically I have my library with the implementation but I refer to a NuGet package. When executing my code, I also need the library coming from the NuGet package. Or I may even have a project with multiple own libraries.

What I do right now is that I register the entry library and once SQL Server copies it during the first execution to the MSQSQL\ExternalLibraries folder, I copy there manually rest of the files. It works and it's fine for the development. But we are looking for better option for production.

I would like to know if you have any recommendations? I know that when using CLR, there is an option to say that you want to register the library including all the dependencies. But I haven't found anything similar for the the external language.

Thank you for your help.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are mentioned. Start by reviewing the deployment process described for SQL Server external libraries and the current language-extension documentation; the work would be complete when a supported production approach for deploying dependent libraries is defined and documented.
