nuget doesn't download dependencies in the Addins folder #37

Closed xclayl closed 7 years ago

xclayl commented 7 years ago

Start with tools\Addins\packages.config: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<packages>
    <package id="Moq" version="4.7.99" />
</packages>

run build.ps1.

The Castle.Core package isn't downloaded.

(We're actually using an internal package with a dependency. Moq is just an example package with a dependency)

Looks like packages.config can't work any other way

@xclayl sorry, not sure what you mean by your last statement. Can you clarify?

xclayl commented 7 years ago

nuget.exe only restores packages that are explicitly defined in packages.config. So when using Visual Studio to add Moq, it also adds the package Castle.Core to packages.config for you.

@xclayl gotcha. There is some on-going work in the 0.22.0 release of Cake which should address this issue. Please follow this PR for more information:

Thanks, looking forward to it!
