How to use Visual Studio Team Services as a NuGet

问题:

I am using LINQPad 5 and VSTS (visual studio team services) I have a NuGet feed (v3) in VSTS and I would like to use packages from there(private) in LINQPad

I have tried using the personal access token from VSTS as the NuGet password in LINQPad I have tried putting the VSTS credential provider for nuget in AppData\Local\NuGet\CredentialProviders
I have tried putting the VSTS credential provider for nuget in AppData\Local\LINQPad\NuGet\CredentialProviders
I have tried using my VSTS username and password as the nuget credentials

How is this done? Is there a bug in LINQPad? Is this not supported yet?

回答1:

We managed to get it to work by using the v2 nuget API:

/nuget/v2

instead of:

/nuget/v3/index.json

Just put the personal access token in the password text box on LINQPad Package Sources dialog box.

My current way of getting it to work is as follows:

• use nuget v2 feed https://<instance>.pkgs.visualstudio.com/_packaging/<feed>/nuget/v2
• put the personal access token in the password text box
  • make sure the access token is still valid...
• restart linqpad when in doubt! It seems to cache some old credentials (e.g. expired PAT) sometimes
• try disabling other feeds so you only have one feed enabled
• this helps sometimes: under advanced, enable use legacy search engine (v2)
