Can't use pre-release nuget packages? #180

knocte · 2021-09-21T02:22:00Z

Description

Trying to add a pre-release nuget package reference to my projects yields an error.

Repro steps

Use the adviced command: dotnet add myProject/myProject.fsproj package FSharpx.Collections --version 3.0.0-alpha2021.09.17.065817
Try adding the --source flag too: dotnet add myProject/myProject.fsproj package FSharpx.Collections --version 3.0.0-alpha2021.09.17.065817 --source https://nuget.pkg.github.com/fsprojects/index.json

Expected behavior

Should add the PackageReference to the .fsproj file.

Actual behavior

Gives this error:

  Determining projects to restore...

@knocte can you please try once again? I've published version without dots 3.0.0-alpha20210929190241

knocte · 2021-09-30T03:18:47Z

@sergey-tihon thanks! looks like we're progressing, because now I get a different error:

According to GitHub docs Installing NuGet package you need to authenticate first

Ehmm, what? If the packages are from an opensource repo that is public, I don't understand why authentication is needed.

I hope this doesn't mean that the restore stage needs authentication too? Will test...

Strangely enough, I get again the error that I was getting at the beginning (before you pushed 4bdfae2 ):

Maybe the authentication is failing and somehow the exposed error is this one by mistake? Take in account that I don't belong to the fsprojects organization.

Tried to more things, FYI, to no avail:

% dotnet add myProject/myProject.fsproj package FSharpx.Collections --source https://nuget.pkg.github.com/fsprojects/index.json --version 3.0.0-alpha20210929190241 --prerelease

error: The --prerelease and --version options are not supported in the same command.

message say that you should not use --prerelease when you specify exact version.
Can you please try

dotnet add myProject/myProject.fsproj package FSharpx.Collections --source https://nuget.pkg.github.com/fsprojects/index.json --version 3.0.0-alpha20210929190241

knocte · 2021-10-18T04:53:32Z

@sergey-tihon judging by your last reply, it seems you only read my last message, but not the previous one.

That is, the error I got about prerelease was just my last attempt at trying to find out if I was doing something wrong. I was aware of its error message, but just pasted it anyway, in case you were going to suggest me to use that flag.

Can you please try

Already tried, check my previous message (previous to the one where I pasted the --prerelease error).

knocte · 2021-10-22T08:57:39Z

@sergey-tihon friendly ping :)

I was just wondering, that if these pre-release packages cannot be used by anyone that is not part of the fsprojects organization, wouldn't it be better to just publish these packages in nuget? By marking them as pre-release packages they wouldn't be used by anyone by default, only via opt-in for people who want unstable(prerelease) grade packages.

sergey-tihon · 2021-10-22T19:50:28Z

@knocte sorry, I missed one your message.

I hope this doesn't mean that the restore stage needs authentication too? Will test...

I think that you will need to commit nuget.config in the repo in order to restore packages.
But if your personal token contains only one scope read:packages it should not be dangerous because there is no ways to misuse it.

pre-release packages cannot be used by anyone that is not part of the fsprojects organization

It cannot be so, because can download them manually even you not authenticated here https://github.com/orgs/fsprojects/packages?repo_name=FSharpx.Collections

log : '3.0.0-alpha2021.09.17.065817' is not a valid version string. (Parameter 'value')
Looks like nugget cannot work feed that contains versions that nuget count as invalid.
I've deleted all packages with incorrect version and able to install it without issue.

May I ask you try one time?
