Why this PR is needed
PR microsoft/aspire#16157 fixed a bug where
aspire publishfor TypeScript/polyglot AppHosts was incorrectly placing output under~/.aspire/bundle-hosts/...instead of the AppHost directory. As part of that fix, the CLI help text was updated to clarify that the default output path is the AppHost directory'saspire-outputfolder, not./aspire-outputrelative to the current working directory.The documentation for
aspire publishstill showed the old wording (./aspire-output) which could mislead users into thinking the output is relative to their current working directory rather than the AppHost directory.What was changed
Updated the
--output-pathoption description in theaspire publishcommand reference to match the clarified behavior.Before:
