Show nested package references #245

Closed badsyntax closed 1 year ago

badsyntax commented 1 year ago

Fixes #235

We still list the top-level packages based on the package definitions within the .csproj file, but nested packages are discovered using the nuget-deps-tree package. That package parses the project.assets.json file. After doing some research, this seems like the easiest approach to provide a nested package tree for nuget packages. The project.assets.json file should exist for dotnet core projects.

This should be non-breaking, in that if the nuget-deps-tree package has any problems discovering nuget packages, then no nested package deps are displayed (but the top-level packages are still displayed).

@badsyntax This is great and would be awesome to see for project references as well. Is that something easily done that could be added to this PR?
