Create Nuget package from Visual Studio 2013

I have installed the NuGet.Tools.2013.vsix on my VS2013. And I like to create a Nuget package from Manager Console, but when I try I get a mensagem:

The term 'nuget' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

I don't know what I do wrong.

Is possible use the Manager Console to create a package, or I need use other stuff.

Solution

  • Make sure that you have nuget.exe somewhere on %PATH%.

    Note: We use Jenkins and needed EnvInject to get the %PATH% variable available during the build process.

    Edit your .csproj file to include a new macro variable for the assembly version number, see Determine Assembly Version during a Post Build Event?

    <Target Name="PostBuildMacros">
  <GetAssemblyIdentity AssemblyFiles="$(TargetPath)">
    <Output TaskParameter="Assemblies" ItemName="Targets" />
  </GetAssemblyIdentity>
  <ItemGroup>
    <VersionNumber Include="@(Targets->'%(Version)')"/>
  </ItemGroup>
</Target>
<PropertyGroup>
  <PostBuildEventDependsOn>
    $(PostBuildEventDependsOn);
    PostBuildMacros;
  </PostBuildEventDependsOn>    
  <PostBuildEvent>echo HELLO, THE ASSEMBLY VERSION IS: @(VersionNumber)</PostBuildEvent>
</PropertyGroup>

    Use the following post-build script to deploy new packages whenever the assembly version has changed and a new .nupkg is required;

    IF "$(ConfigurationName)" == "Release" (
  CD /D $(ProjectDir)
  IF EXIST $(TargetName).@(VersionNumber).nupkg EXIT
  nuget pack $(ProjectPath) -Properties Configuration=$(ConfigurationName)
  nuget push $(TargetName).@(VersionNumber).nupkg -s http://mynugetserver
)
