I want to create nuget packages (and deploy them to my private nuget repository) after my assemblies are compiled.
I tried setting everything up by using NuGetter, but that project is kind of inactive and only allows you to build one package/project while I need one package/assembly.
Now I'm kind of stuck. I'm currently looking at their source, hoping to make it more useable for me.
What I'm asking here, in parallel, is: Does anyone have a finished solution for publishing/creating nuget packages from TFS 2012 and/or TFS2010 for multi-package solutions?
I tried setting everything up by using NuGetter, but that project is kind of inactive and only allows you to build one package/project while I need one package/assembly.
NuGetter does support multiple packages, i only use the multiple package method now as you can use it for single or multiple packages.
by using a packages xml file you can specify the multiple packages
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<NuGetterPackages>
<NuGetterPackage name="Package1">
<NuSpecFilePath>Package1.nuspec</NuSpecFilePath>
<BasePath>NuGetPrePackage_Package1</BasePath>
<InvokePowerShell>True</InvokePowerShell>
<PowerShellScriptPath>PrePackage_Package1.ps1</PowerShellScriptPath>
<InvokePush>True</InvokePush>
<OutputDirectory>NuGetPackage</OutputDirectory>
<PushDestination>\\MYFeedLoc\NugetFeed</PushDestination>
<Version>1.0.J.B</Version>
</NuGetterPackage>
<NuGetterPackage name="Package2">
<NuSpecFilePath>Package2.nuspec</NuSpecFilePath>
<BasePath>NuGetPrePackage_Package2</BasePath>
<InvokePowerShell>True</InvokePowerShell>
<PowerShellScriptPath>PrePackage_Package2.ps1</PowerShellScriptPath>
<InvokePush>True</InvokePush>
<OutputDirectory>NuGetPackage</OutputDirectory>
<PushDestination>\\MYFeedLoc\NugetFeed</PushDestination>
<Version>1.0.J.B</Version>
</NuGetterPackage>
</NuGetterPackages>
under source control i have the packages.xml file, and then per Nuget Package a powershell file and a nuspec file.
Nuspec File looks like this
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<package >
<metadata>
<id>Package1</id>
<version>$version$</version>
<title>Package1</title>
<authors>Package1 Author</authors>
<owners>Package1 Owner</owners>
<iconUrl>http://Iconserver/nextlogo.png</iconUrl>
<requireLicenseAcceptance>false</requireLicenseAcceptance>
<description>Description of Contents</description>

<dependencies>
<dependency id="AnyLatestDependencyIMayHAve" version=""/>
<dependency id="AFixedDependencyIMayHAve" version="[1.0.0]"/>
</dependencies>
</metadata>
</package>
And then a Powershell file that just creates the folder structure within the BasePathDeclaration in the Packages.xml, this is the same file as shown on the NuGetter site

I have a project that makes use of some third-party libraries. Some of these drag in transitive dependencies that have actually several artifacts in the repository:
module-1.2.jar
module-1.2-sources.jar
module-1.2-tests.jar
My investigations tought me that these seem to be Maven build artifacts that where propagated with a classifier. Now it seems that IVY is well able to handle the sources file but when I declare a dependency like this, it appears that the wrong jar is selected:
<dependency org="acme" module="module" rev="1.2"/>
When I do a resolve in ANT like this
<ivy:resolve conf="${ivy.non.test.confs}" validate="false" refresh="true" />
<ivy:retrieve conf="${ivy.non.test.confs}" pattern="${build.lib}/[conf]/[artifact].[ext]" sync="true" />
it happens that the module-1.2-tests.jar is selected as resolve target and retrieved under the name of the actual jar name (module-1.2.jar in this example).
What am I doing wrong here?
I got an error during the deploying my web-application.
The title of error is Could not open Source file: Could not find a part of the path
'Could not open Source file: Could not find a part of the path
'E:\ARCHIVES\Projects\Main\Jahan.Handicraft\Jahan.Handicraft.Web.Mvc.UmbracoCms.App\obj\Release\AspnetCompileMerge\TempBuildDir\App_Plugins\UmbracoForms\Data\Web.config;\App_Plugins\UmbracoForms\Data\Web.config'.'.
I've used Umbraco 7.4.3 und ASP.NET MVC in my project.
I'd like deploy it on localhost.
How can I solve this problem?
This is a failed attempt at transforming connection strings in sublevel configurations files.
To disable this transformation, edit the publish profile under Properties\PublishProfiles and set the value of the AutoParameterizationWebConfigConnectionStrings element to false. Add the element if missing.

Post installation
You should note that the Umbraco nuget package adds a build step to always include the Umbraco folders when you deploy using Web One-Click Publish with Visual Studio.
You can see these folders in packages/UmbracoCms x.y.z/build/UmbracoCms.targets
Should you need to exclude any of these folders or content, you can add a target to your .pubxml files in the properties/Publish folder. For instance if you need to exclude json data a plugin generates during production.
<Target Name="StopUmbracoFromPublishingAppPlugins" AfterTargets="AddUmbracoFilesToOutput">
<ItemGroup>
<FilesForPackagingFromProject Remove=".\App_Plugins\UmbracoForms\Data\**\*.*"/>
</ItemGroup>
</Target>

I've got TFS doing some continuous integration builds. Today, it broke for one solution. It seems it can't find AutoMapper. All the other packages can be found just fine.
A couple relevant points:
None of the packages are in source control, we're letting TFS restore them.
We have an internal NuGet feed, but it doesn't seem to be a problem in other solutions, and in this solution we are still getting Entity Framework to restore - just not AutoMapper.
I tried removing and re-adding the NuGet Packages. No luck.
If I use Remote Desktop to connect to the build server and open the project in Visual Studio there, it restores the packages and builds fine.
I can build manually by executing D:\"Program Files"\"Microsoft Team Foundation Server 12.0"\Tools\Nuget.exe restore followed by msbuild MySolutoin.sln
Our TFS server is installed on our D:\ drive.
This is from the TFS Logs:

Exception Message: MSBuild error 1 has ended this build. You can find more specific information about the cause of this error in above messages.

I've seen this too. It seems to be triggered as soon as NuGet package restore switches to the internal feed. Once it does this is doesn't switch back to the official nuget.org feed and continues to look for the packages on the internal feed.
Ensure both package sources are added to your NuGet.config file. Also ensure both sources are 'active'.
<configuration>
<packageSources>
<add key="nuget.org"
value="https://www.nuget.org/api/v2/" />
<add key="example.com"
value="http://example.com/feed/nuget/" />
</packageSources>
<activePackageSource>
<add key="All"
value="(Aggregate source)" />
</activePackageSource>
</configuration>
See NuGet configuration file documentation.
Matt's answer put me on the right track but we don't use an internal feed so I had to do some more digging. This answer works, at least, for a project created in Visual Studio 2015 and built by TFS 2015.
In Visual Studio, open the NuGet package manager settings (Tools menu > NuGet Package Manager > Package Manager Settings). Choose "Package Sources" from the options list on the left.
Create the nuget.config file at the root of the solution. This should be the same folder location as your ".sln" solution file. Copy the following into the config file:
<configuration>
<packageSources>
</packageSources>
<activePackageSource>
<add key="All"
value="(Aggregate source)" />
</activePackageSource>
</configuration>
Within the <packageSources> tag, create an <add key="" value="" /> entry for each source listed in the "Package Sources" options window. The key is the name of the source as shown above the URL, and the value is the URL itself. Include those listed in both "Available package sources" and "Machine-wide package sources". I did not create an entry for the local filesystem as it wasn't used in this solution. Based on the screenshot above, the complete config file now contains the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<packageSources>
<add key="nuget.org"
value="https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json" />
<add key="Microsoft and .NET"
value="https://www.nuget.org/api/v2/curated-feeds/microsoftdotnet/" />
</packageSources>
<activePackageSource>
<add key="All"
value="(Aggregate source)" />
</activePackageSource>
</configuration>
After committing the nuget.config file to source control, TFS was able to download all the necessary NuGet packages and successfully build the solution.
In addition to Matt's answer, I'd like to highlight the following well-hidden stuff from the NuGet documentation:
NuGet config files are treated in the following priority order
(closest to the folder nuget.exe runs from wins), for example assuming
the solution directory is c:\a\b\c:
c:\a\b\c\.nuget\nuget.config - This file is only used for solution
level packages, and is not supported in nuget 3.0 - 3.4
c:\a\b\c\nuget.config
c:\a\b\nuget.config
c:\a\nuget.config
c:\nuget.config
User specific config file,
%AppData%\NuGet\nuget.config.
Or the user specified file thru option
-ConfigFile.
This could explain some weird behaviour in specific scenario's where a restore does or does not pick up a configured feed, depending on whether youre restoring with nuget 2.x or 3.x
Edit: and I found yet another reason why packages might not be detected:
I have package "A" with version 1.1.1.0 .
Prior 3.4 this command works well:
nuget install A -version 1.1.1.0
With NuGet 3.4 RC I get:
An error occurred while retrieving package metadata for 'A.1.1.1' from
source 'N'. An error occurred while retrieving package metadata for
'A.1.1.1' from source 'N'. Data at the root level is invalid. Line
1, position 1.
...
The client treats 1.1, 1.1.0, 1.01.0 and 1.1.0.0 as the same version
using SemVer rules. The reason non-normalized versions were special
cased in the past is because for v2 http calls the client would first
send the version string exactly as the user specified it
When I checked in the code, TFS 2013 built the solution automatically. It is okay in local VS 2013 but failed in TFS.
Here is the summary.

Your TFS 2013 build server is using MSBuild 12.0 where CodeTasksFactory exists in Microsoft.Build.Tasks.v12.0.dll rather than Microsoft.Build.Tasks.v4.0.dll.
Ideally you should be doing the following:
1) Open your NuGet.targets file:
C:\Builds\1\xxxx\FTP Processor (New)\src.nuget\nuget.targets
2) Identify the task referencing the old DLL.
<UsingTask AssemblyFile="$(MSBuildToolsPath)\Microsoft.Build.Tasks.v4.0.dll" TaskFactory="CodeTaskFactory" >
...
3) Then future proof it like so:
<UsingTask AssemblyFile="$(MSBuildToolsPath)\Microsoft.Build.Tasks.v$(MSBuildToolsVersion).dll" TaskFactory="CodeTaskFactory" >
...
As of VS2013,
you should be running MSBuild from C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\12.0\Bin\
not from C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319. See
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/visualstudio/archive/2013/07/24/msbuild-is-now-part-of-visual-studio.aspx
source:http://gyorgybalassy.wordpress.com/2013/12/31/msb4175-the-task-factory-codetaskfactory-could-not-be-loaded/
it solved the issue for me.
After much research and trying a bunch of "hacks" I went on to understand the exact mechanics of nuget restore. It turns out, everything has changed since nuget 2.7+ and you're no longer required to include ".nuget" folder and the associated nuget.exe and nuget.target
To fix my build process and use the latest recommended approach, I did the following:
Move nuget.config to be with .sln file same folder path
Delete ".nuget" folder entirely
Delete references to that folder in .sln file
Delete following lines from any .csproj file
--
<RestorePackages>true</RestorePackages>
<Import Project="$(SolutionDir)\.nuget\nuget.targets" />
<Import Project="$(SolutionDir)\.nuget\NuGet.targets" Condition="Exists('$(SolutionDir)\.nuget\NuGet.targets')" />
--
This could take some time if your project solution has many files or you work on many projects built with Visual Studio 2013 and before.
The good news is, there's a powershell script that applies the above recursively on any folder:
https://github.com/owen2/AutomaticPackageRestoreMigrationScript/blob/master/migrateToAutomaticPackageRestore.ps1
In short, it reverses "Enable Nuget Package Restore", allowing the
newer package restore method to work.
In Visual Studio 2013, automatic package restore became part of the
IDE (and the TFS build process). This method is more reliable than the
older, msbuild integrated package restore. It does not require you to
have nuget.exe checked in to each solution and does not require any
additional msbuild targets. However, if you have the files related to
the old package restore method in your project, Visual Studio will
skip automatic package restore. (This behavior is likely to change
soon, hopefully it does).
You can use this script to remove nuget.exe, nuget.targets, and all
project and solution references to nuget.targets so you can take
advantage of Automatic Package Restore. It more or less automates the
process described here.
It will recurse through the directory you run the script from and do
it to any solutions that may be in there somewhere. Be careful and
have fun! (not responsible for anything that breaks)
A couple of good links on the subject:
http://blog.davidebbo.com/2014/01/the-right-way-to-restore-nuget-packages.html
http://docs.nuget.org/consume/package-restore/migrating-to-automatic-package-restore
I had a similar issue. We are forced into using the older msbuild that comes with the framework, rather than the v14 version that comes with visual studio 2015 because we build some old Delphi.net code. Our vcxproj files are triggering some automatic code analysis target which has a task that relies on Microsoft.Build.Tasks.v12.0.dll. I was able to override that task by copying and pasting it into the top of the vcxproj and tweaking the path to the dll. The original task can be found in "C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v14.0\CodeAnalysis\Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.Targets". So, in other words, you might be able to override the problem task in your project.

I have an emma execution target in my ant script which captures the coverage for my project. Following is the ant script snippet from my emma target which worked fine until I added a new project which has the same package names(com.kuleep.project.*) as that of my existing project.
<emma enabled="${emma.enabled}" >
<instr instrpathref="test.run.classpath"
destdir="${kulproj.out.instr.dir}"
metadatafile="${kulproj.coverage.dir}/metadata.em"
merge="true">
<filter includes="com.kuleep.project.*" />
<filter excludes="com.kuldeep.project.test.*" />
</instr>
</emma>
After this new project was added the Emma Coverage Report shows the coverage for this new project's package and classes only. This means that the instrumented classes for my old project were overwritten by the instrumented classes of this new project since the package name is same in both projects.
What is the best way to avoid this and have instrumented classes for both projects generated if I do not want to change the package names in either of the projects.
NOTE: Please put a comment if more details are needed to answer this.
