My NuGet packages are not created

Hello, I'm trying to create a NuGet package and create it directly in a shared folder. The thing is that this library has multiple target frameworks, and when i create the NuGet it doesnt create the .nupkg file in the PublishDir folder. I've tried with only 1 target framework and it works, so it looks like targeting multiple frameworks is the problem here. This is the config of the .csproj:

  <PropertyGroup>
    <TargetFrameworks>netcoreapp31;net60</TargetFrameworks>
    <LangVersion>7.1</LangVersion>
    <VersionPrefix>1.0.0</VersionPrefix>
    <!--<VersionSuffix>rc.1</VersionSuffix>-->
    <GeneratePackageOnBuild>True</GeneratePackageOnBuild>
  </PropertyGroup>

  <PropertyGroup>
    <TargetFrameworks>netcoreapp31;net60</TargetFrameworks>
    <LangVersion>7.1</LangVersion>
    <VersionPrefix>1.0.0</VersionPrefix>
    <!--<VersionSuffix>rc.1</VersionSuffix>-->
    <GeneratePackageOnBuild>True</GeneratePackageOnBuild>
  </PropertyGroup>

and the FolderProfile.pubxml:

<Project ToolsVersion="4.0" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">
  <PropertyGroup>
    <Configuration>Release</Configuration>
    <Platform>Any CPU</Platform>
    <PublishDir>\\dev\NuGet</PublishDir>
    <PublishProtocol>FileSystem</PublishProtocol>
    <TargetFramework>net60</TargetFramework>
  </PropertyGroup>
</Project>

<Project ToolsVersion="4.0" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">
  <PropertyGroup>
    <Configuration>Release</Configuration>
    <Platform>Any CPU</Platform>
    <PublishDir>\\dev\NuGet</PublishDir>
    <PublishProtocol>FileSystem</PublishProtocol>
    <TargetFramework>net60</TargetFramework>
  </PropertyGroup>
</Project>

as i mentioned, if i change this line:

    <TargetFrameworks>netcoreapp31;net60</TargetFrameworks>

    <TargetFrameworks>netcoreapp31;net60</TargetFrameworks>

for this:

    <TargetFramework>net60</TargetFramework>

    <TargetFramework>net60</TargetFramework>

the nupkg file is created under \dev\NuGet Any idea?

i just do this, and it should generate the nuget package if i target only 1 framework:

    <TargetFramework>net60</TargetFramework>

    <TargetFramework>net60</TargetFramework>

the nupkg is generated in the folder if i reference multiple frameworks, it only gets generated in /bin/release

look. tebe has told you several times. the proper value to go into TargetFramework and TargetFrameworks is net6.0. the best way to get a nuget package is to do dotnet pack from the command line. if you do this, then the package should be generated in the expected location. note, you cannot use the dotnet build system to put it into a shared folder for consumption. you have to build it, and then use nuget install to put it into the shared location. otherwise, it will not end up in the proper subfolder of the shared location. also, why are you trying to support netcoreapp3.1? it is long out of support.

library:

  <PropertyGroup>
    <GeneratePackageOnBuild>true</GeneratePackageOnBuild>
    <PackageOutputPath>$(SolutionDir)artifacts</PackageOutputPath>
    <VersionPrefix>1.0.0</VersionPrefix>
    <VersionSuffix Condition=" '$(Configuration)' == 'DEBUG' " >$([System.DateTime]::Now.ToString(yyyyMMddhhmm))</VersionSuffix>
  </PropertyGroup>

  <PropertyGroup>
    <GeneratePackageOnBuild>true</GeneratePackageOnBuild>
    <PackageOutputPath>$(SolutionDir)artifacts</PackageOutputPath>
    <VersionPrefix>1.0.0</VersionPrefix>
    <VersionSuffix Condition=" '$(Configuration)' == 'DEBUG' " >$([System.DateTime]::Now.ToString(yyyyMMddhhmm))</VersionSuffix>
  </PropertyGroup>

then to set the feed from the consumer code you can choose EITHER * via a something.props:

<RestoreSources>
 $(RestoreSources);
 path/to/artifacts
</RestoreSources>

<RestoreSources>
 $(RestoreSources);
 path/to/artifacts
</RestoreSources>

* via nuget.config

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
  <packageSources>
    <!--To inherit the global NuGet package sources remove the <clear/> line below -->
    <clear />
    <add key="nuget" value="https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json" protocolVersion="3" />
    <add key="local" value="C:/path/to/artifact" />
  </packageSources>
</configuration>

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

yeah, i know he told me, i just said that net60 is working fine as long as i taget only 1 framework. Also as i can see and understand i should avoid using "Publish", instead i need to dotnet pack? the idea on the suffix version is to have some release candidates until we close the version so its the 1.0.0, then start again with 1.1-rc.1 and so on <PackageOutputPath>$(SolutionDir)artifacts</PackageOutputPath> also what does this "artifacts" mean?

should this work?

        <VersionSuffix Condition=" '$(Configuration)' == 'DEBUG' " >$([System.DateTime]::Now.ToString(yyyyMMddhhmm))</VersionSuffix>
        <VersionSuffix Condition=" '$(Configuration)' == 'RELEASE' " >rc.1</VersionSuffix>

        <VersionSuffix Condition=" '$(Configuration)' == 'DEBUG' " >$([System.DateTime]::Now.ToString(yyyyMMddhhmm))</VersionSuffix>
        <VersionSuffix Condition=" '$(Configuration)' == 'RELEASE' " >rc.1</VersionSuffix>

instead of: <PackageOutputPath>$(SolutionDir)artifacts</PackageOutputPath> can i do:

        <PackageOutputPath>\\dev\NuGet\MyPackageName</PackageOutputPath>

        <PackageOutputPath>\\dev\NuGet\MyPackageName</PackageOutputPath>

and automate the package name somehow? so i can copy paste it to another projects?

gitlab, we are still waiting for a place to put them but we need to start working with nuget asap so its a temporal solution

thing here is: when i compile my project it will create the nupkg, i assume thats why you set it to debug and set the current time as suffix but what happen if i want to compile in release and i dont change the version first? it will just override it and that can cause troubles, right?

i just realised ovber "Publish" there's a "pack":

NeRooNOP•6mo ago

so i can just:

<GeneratePackageOnBuild>False</GeneratePackageOnBuild>

<GeneratePackageOnBuild>False</GeneratePackageOnBuild>

and manually pack it

Unknown User•6mo ago

NeRooNOP•6mo ago

i prefer to keep it false, so i can be sure that when i want to package it, i must change the version first in release to rc.x+1

okay, ty so much last question. Is it the same for framework 4.7.2? can i do the same in the same way? i just notices the "Publish" or the "Pack" options dont appear in the conetxt menu

NeRooNOP•6mo ago
