Just looking at some of the nuget features for VS 2012 project. I got to the UI for nuget and got confused. I just wonder if these options are a little out of date. The online help wiki is currently blank.
In the current edition of Nuget the package cache is something like C:\Users\Jamie\AppData\Local\NuGet\Cache or have I got the wrong idea about the Repository Path contents. I was also under the impression that any package folder would be part configuration included in the solution repository nuget files and folders. See http://docs.nuget.org/docs/release-...r_Location
Looks like the Nuget actions need some attention, the Repository Path is not required but it’s been implemented incorrectly. Wil ltry to get it done for a build later today.
As it turns out, the nuget update action is probably not much use in Continua.
I'm assuming of course that you have not committed the \Packages folder into your repository? If you have then nuget Update will work, otherwise use Install, this is what I have in my simple test project.
Vincent, Yeah I tend to agree and have the /packages within my repositories, however there are a number of “community” projects who don’t include the /packages folder, so I was testing on of those. And a shitty untested one at that!
The other problem I had with Nuget.exe setup was the fact you had to do a copy and paste installation to c:\Program Files\Nuget\ and add an entry into the environment variables %PATH% so continua would find the executable. Basically the help doco just needs to be edited in your wiki http://wiki.finalbuilder.com/display/continua/NuGet with an example like the one in this forum.
Unfortunately the nuget command line doesn’t have an installer… so the only way to find it is exacly what you did. More doco required on our side for sure.
Our plan is to add an integrated nuget server to continua, and add native nuget support to agents so this won’t be a problem when that is done.
