Support to target specific framework in packages.config

[ArnavS59]

Description

Apparently, I have been trying to install nuget packages via the plugin for a specific netstandard framework eg netstandard2.0 , however the tag targetFramework here doesn't seem to be working in the packages.config. It seems to override or simply selects the framework which is set in the player settings-> API compatibility level.

The plugin doesn't seem to parse the targetFramework tag.
<package id="LiteDB" version="5.0.16" manuallyInstalled="true" targetFramework="netstandard2.0" />

It is important to have the possibility to downloads certain NuGet packages in certain target frameworks.

My questions is there a way to specifically install a nuget package in a specific target framework without changing the framework under player settings-> API compatibility level.

• NuGetForUnity Version: [4.0.1]
• Unity Version: [2022.3.7f1 ]
• Operating System: [Windows]

Hi @ArnavS59 thanks for the feature request. To understand you correctly, you try to install a NuGet package that doesn't officially support the API compatibility level of you Unity project? Or do you like to force NuGetForUnity to select / prioritize a different targetFramework?

Hi @JoC0de , I would like to select/specify/prioritize a different targetFramework for the NuGetForUnity without altering the API Compatability level setting.

@JoC0de do you have any update or pointers regarding the opened issue?

It may have something to do with this issue. I too feel that the ability to specify TargetFramework is needed. https://github.com/GlitchEnzo/NuGetForUnity/issues/621
