Can't Install Cake.Powershell with Cake .0.30.0 global .NET CLI tool

[jmcmillen]

Hi,

I'm getting an install error when using Cake.Powershell in a build script that's called from the new .NET CLI tool.

Steps To Reproduce

#addin nuget:?package=Cake.Powershell&version=0.4.7

var target = Argument("Target", "Restore");

Task("Restore")
    .Description("Restore Nuget packages for the solution")
    .Does(() => { });

RunTarget(target);

Then run this command

dotnet cake build.cake

Output

Module directory does not exist.
NuGet.config not found.

The install of Cake.Powershell works fine when using the build.ps1 powershell bootstrapper. It's only failing when I try to use the dotnet CLI tool.

• The CLI tool supports .NET Core 2.1
• Cake.Powershell currently only supports net46

Feel free to provide a PR for #12 😄

Good to know. Thank you. And thanks for the quick response too!

Closing as framework limitation.
