Add support for Xamarin Studio 6

[mteper]

The plugin doesn't seem to have a release compatible with XS 6.

[mrward]

Yes, I have not looked at porting it to Xamarin Studio 6.0 yet.

That would be awesome. Your plugin is really a time saver once you have a big solution.

[mrward]

The NuGet extensions addin should now be available for Xamarin Studio 6.0 from the Xamarin Studio Add-in Repository (Beta channel).

Xamarin Studio 6.1 from the alpha channel is not supported yet since it is uses a different version of NuGet.

I have XS 6.0.1 and this plugin is incompatible apparently. Required MonoDevelop.Ide 6.0, found MonoDevelop.Ide 6.0.1

[mrward]

This is a bug in Xamarin Studio 6.0.1 that is fixed in the latest release 6.0.1 (build 9) on the stable channel.

Thanks

The following message is displayed after updating to Xamarin Studio 6.0.2 (bulid 73), this plugin didn't work

Could not load file or assembly 'NuGet.Core,Version=2.8.7.0, Culture=neutral,PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies.

[mrward]

The addin needs updating. Xamarin Studio 6.0.2 uses NuGet 2.12 whilst the addin is still using NuGet 2.8.7.

@muak - NuGet extensions addin 0.11.1 has been published and works with Xamarin Studio 6.0.2.

[muak]

Thank you very much.

[muak]

Please Add support for Xamarin Studio 6.1.1

[wickedw]

Hi matt, this looks great, but on 6.1.1 as mentioned above so cannot yet see it in action, thanks for your efforts.

[mrward]

Work is in progress to add support for Xamarin Studio 6.1. The main problem is that Xamarin Studio 6.1 switched to NuGet v3 from v2 and that basically means a large rewrite has to happen with this extension.

[wickedw]

Appreciated Matt, thanks.

[brandonrisell]

I'll throw my vote in for how useful this addin is and would love to see it updated for Xamarin Studio 6.1. Is there somewhere that we can request this functionality in the stock Xamarin Studio? Being able to work with nuget packages for the whole solution is an amazing time saver.

+1 I am missing this in 6.1 best add in out there

[mrward]

It is being worked on:

The UI will not be exactly the same as Visual Studio. I wanted to get something working and released since Xamarin Studio 6.1 has been out for a few months now before making large UI changes.

There is a plan to support managing NuGet packages for the entire solution 'out of the box' with Xamarin Studio. However I cannot say when this will happen since the feature is delayed due to other work. This is why I moved this particular feature that was in the old non-integrated addin into this extensions addin.

Managing packages at the solution is useful and does seem to be quite popular. It is the second highest requested feature on the Visual Studio for Mac User Voice site. Although I could not find anything about this feature on the Xamarin Studio User Voice site.

Other features such as PowerShell console will not be included out of the box, at least in the short term. Currently the PowerShell console still using Pash and would need to be replaced with a version of the open sourced PowerShell that runs on Mono so it can be hosted by Xamarin Studio.

thanks Matt !!!!

[mrward]

There is a new 0.12 version of the NuGet extensions addin that works with Xamarin Studio 6.1.

Unfortunately the MonoDevelop addin repository is not currently building or publishing so I cannot publish the addin there. Instead it is published on GitHub.

The addin does not work with Xamarin Studio 6.2. I will be looking at support that version next.

[wickedw]

Thanks Matt, installed fine, will shout with any input when using it, THANKS 💯

[mrward]

Support for Xamarin Studio 6.2 is now available with a modified version of the NuGet extensions addin available to download from GitHub.

[mrward]

Added a build of the NuGet extensions addin to GitHub that works with Visual Studio for Mac - Preview 2 (7.0 build 560).

[brandonrisell]

Thanks for staying on top of this Matt, I really appreciate the work you've put into this.

[renzska]

This is just awesome! One of my biggest complaints with having PCL solutions and their corresponding iOS, Android, and Mac versions was having the NuGet updating process take forever and require so much effort. You just saved my sanity!

Using with Visual Studio for Mac Preview 10 (7.0 build 3051).

Thanks!
