Using NetBeans 8, how can I create a script to do each of these things?

  • While in development of a Joomla! component, I would like to make contents of the site and admin sub-directories, go into the components and administrator/components directories respectively of the local Joomla! instance.
  • Create a ZIP file containing only the files for distribution.

  • Have a look at http://joomlatoys.com/index.php/toys/jtbuilder its an one-click packager to build any extension or package from already installed extensions. – cksrc Aug 27 '14 at 12:14

For such a scenario you should look into Phing (or even Apache Ant).

The Joomla Documentation provides some basic steps to do this in Eclipse. I am sure it can be valuable to achieve something similar in Netbeans as well.

Extension development using eclipse and phing

Joomla Ant build files

Hope this helps a bit to get you in the right direction.
