How to build NuGet client tools

Prerequisites

  • Visual Studio 2017 with following workloads:
    • .NET desktop development
    • Desktop development with C++
    • Visual Studio extension development.
  • Windows 10 SDK
  • Git
  • Windows Powershell v3.0+

Steps to build NuGet client tools

  1. Clone NuGet/NuGet.Client repository

    git clone https://github.com/NuGet/NuGet.Client

  2. Start PowerShell. CD into the cloned repository directory.

  3. Run configuration script

    .\configure.ps1

  4. Build with

    .\build.ps1 -SkipUnitTest

    Or Build and Unit test with

    .\build.ps1

  5. Run all test-suites if inside Microsoft corpnet

    .\runTests.ps1

In case you have build issues try cleaning the local repository using git clean -xdf and retry steps 3 and 4.

Notable build.ps1 switches

  • -SkipVS15 - skips building binaries targeting Visual Studio "15" (released as Visual Studio 2017)
  • -SkipUnitTest - skips running unit tests.
  • -Fast - runs minimal incremental build. Skips end-to-end packaging step.

Reveal all script parameters and switches by running

Get-Help .\build.ps1 -detailed

Build artifacts location

  • $(NuGetClientRoot)\Artifacts - this folder will contain the Package Manager extension (NuGet.Tools.vsix) and NuGet command-line client application (nuget.exe)
  • $(NuGetClientRoot)\Artifacts\nupkgs - this folder will contain all our projects packages
