Can we write an event / function on "Publish" or "Publish All Customizations" button in MS CRM

Question

Actually i want to execute a functionality every time a developer publishes customizations. Hence, can we write any custom logic on click of "Publish entity" or "Publish All Customizations" buttons. OOB or un supported way either?

Its not a business requirement, its more of a streamlining code development process in the team.

Out of curiosity, what exactly are you trying to achieve? I cannot guess what the use case for this would be. — Henrik H, Oct 18 '16 at 13:22

You could write a plugin that listens for the Publish and PublishAll messages and runs the functionality you want.

This is an example which explains how to create a plugin for the Publish/PublishAll events. I created it for a very similar question so I'm sure that you will find it helpful.

You can download the plugin project and CRM solution that I used for that example from my GitHub.
