The FormatIdent method is a static method of the Sandbox.Package class. It is used to format a package identifier string based on the provided organization, package name, version, and locality. This method is useful for generating a standardized identifier for packages, which can be used for referencing or fetching packages from a repository.
To use the FormatIdent method, you need to provide the following parameters:
org (string): The organization name associated with the package.package (string): The name of the package.version (int?): The version of the package. This is a nullable integer, so it can be null if the version is not specified.local (bool): A boolean indicating whether the package is local or remote.The method returns a string that represents the formatted package identifier.
// Example usage of the FormatIdent method string org = "myorg"; string package = "mypackage"; int? version = 1; bool local = true; string formattedIdent = Sandbox.Package.FormatIdent(org, package, version, local); // formattedIdent will be something like "myorg/mypackage@1:local"
