MSBuild.MSBNuget

master	feature/v20	latest

Easily create NuGet packages with this collection of MSBuild targets. It uses the method described here: http://docs.nuget.org/docs/creating-packages/creating-and-publishing-a-package#From_a_convention_based_working_directory

Nuget Package Feed

HOW TO USE

• Add a new project to your solution by using the MSBuild-project-template
• Install nuget package MSBuild.MSBNuget
• Open build.props and configure common settings, eg:

  <PropertyGroup>
    <NugetPublishToReleaseFolder Condition="'$(NugetPublishToReleaseFolder)'==''">false</NugetPublishToReleaseFolder>
    <NugetPublishToLocalNugetFeed Condition="'$(NugetPublishToLocalNugetFeed)'==''">false</NugetPublishToLocalNugetFeed>

    <NugetPublishLocalNugetFeedFolder Condition="'$(NugetPublishLocalNugetFeedFolder)'==''">$(MSBuildProjectDirectory)\..\..\Publish\</NugetPublishLocalNugetFeedFolder>
    <NugetPublishReleaseFolder Condition="'$(NugetPublishReleaseFolder)'==''">$(MSBuildProjectDirectory)\..\..\Releases\</NugetPublishReleaseFolder>
  </PropertyGroup>

• Use item groups to add additional files, eg: add file 'my.dll' to convention based folder

  <ItemGroup>
    <additionalFiles Include="$(MSBuildThisFileDirectory)\..\..\MSBNuget\my.dll">
      <targetFolder>MSBNuget/content/libs/net45</targetFolder>
    </additionalFiles>
  </ItemGroup>

• Or use convention folders (libs, tools, content, build), eg:

project  
|-'folder: nuspecname'  
|-|-build  
|-|-content  
|-|-libs  
|-|-tools  
|-|-'file: nuspecname.nuspec'  
|-|-'file: nuspecname.nuspec.props'  

• build.targets will be replaced during install with nuget package MSBuild.MSBBuildConvention
