add metadata extractor to project without nuget

Due to some project needs I will need to add metadata extractor to my project without using Nuget(as I cannot use the VS package manager). I am having trouble adding it as an external project. What is the best way to add it externally without using Nuget ?

Solution

  • NuGet allows you to download packages:

    On this page (https://www.nuget.org/packages/MetadataExtractor/):

    enter image description here

    That will download a .nupkg file, which you can rename to .zip then find the .dll file inside.

    You'd need to do the same things for any dependencies.

    Honestly if you could use NuGet it'd be much easier for you. But that is the workaround.
