Gradle NuGet Plugin

This plugin allows to execute NuGet.exe from a gradle build. It also supports pack & push commands through built-in tasks, nugetPack, nugetPush & nugetRestore.

nugetPack

You can see this plugin being used for real on il-repack project. (together with msbuild one)

nugetSpec

The task is to generate nuspec file by custom configuration.

Sample usage:

buildscript {
    repositories {
      mavenCentral()
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath "com.ullink.gradle:gradle-nuget-plugin:2.17"
    }
}

apply plugin: 'nuget'

nuget {
    // nuget.exe version to use, defaults to 4.9.4

    // there are three different mutually excluded options for Nuget binary downloading:

    // first: define nuget version for download.
    // available versions can be found [here](https://dist.nuget.org/index.html)
    version = '4.9.4'

    // second - set nuget location, which will be used for download:
    nugetExePath = "https://dist.nuget.org/win-x86-commandline/latest/nuget.exe"

    // third: define nuget executable file, which is already downloaded previously:
    nugetExePath = "C:\\Tools\\Nuget\\nuget.exe"
}

nugetSpec {
    // Array, Map and Closure could be used to generate nuspec XML, for details please check NuGetSpecTest
    nuspec = [
        metadata: [
            title:          'project title',
            authors:        'Francois Valdy',
            // id:          default is project.name
            // version:     default is project.version
            // description: default is project.description
            // ...
        ]
        files: [
            { file (src: 'somefile1', target: 'tools') },
            { file (src: 'somefile2', target: 'tools') }
        ]
    ]
}

nugetRestore

Nuget restore is used to retrieve missing packages before starting the build.

Sample usage:

nugetRestore {
    solutionDirectory = path\to\project
    packagesDirectory = location\for\package\restore
}

Where

• solutionDirectory - could either contain the .sln file or the repositories.config file
• packagesDirectory - used only if a folder with repositories.config is used

nugetSources

Nuget sources is used to add, remove, update, enable, disable nuget feeds.

Sample usage:

nugetSources {
    operation = 'add'
    sourceName = 'localNuGetFeed'
    sourceUrl = 'http://foo.com'
    username = 'optional username'
    password = 'optional password'
    configFile = 'nuget.config'
}

Where

• operation - could be add, remove, update, enable, disable and list
• sourceName - name of the nuget feed
• sourceUrl - url of the nuget feed
• username - optional username for nuget sources that require http basic authentication
• password - optional password for nuget sources that require http basic authentication
• configFile - optional NuGet.config file to modify
