Nuget Pack Default Option Values

I'm trying to make it so that when I run nuget pack it always outputs to the same directory, rather than typing it in every time. The following link suggests that defaults are possible by setting config file key/value pairs.

http://docs.nuget.org/docs/reference/nuget-config-file

However, there doesn't seem to be a clear syntax. I've tried using keys such as:

  • OutputDirectory
  • DefaultOutputDirectory
  • DefaultPackOutputDirectory

None of which worked. Maybe the "DefaultPushSource" is a hard-coded key in the executable? Is it even possible to set default values for pack options using the config file approach?

Solution

  • here is the list of settings that can be defined in the nuget.config: http://docs.nuget.org/docs/reference/nuget-config-settings

    There is no nuget.config settings for nuget.exe pack command yet.
