Use GitHub Packages with Visual Studio

IEXSharp pre-releases are on GitHub Packages. This is to prevent confusion on NuGet, so that all packages on NuGet are full releases.

To use GitHub Packages with Visual Studio, first, click the gear icon to open the NuGet Package Sources.

nuget settings

Then, click the green + to add another source. You can name it as you wish, but for the source, put https://nuget.pkg.github.com/vslee/index.json. Then click Update and then OK.

For some reason, GitHub does not allow unauthenticated access to the package repository. (There is a discussion asking them to change this.) In the meantime, I have created a token for anyone to use in order to access the IEXSharp packages:

User name: vslee

Password: f2761da6e654f058ed543b00d015fcfdcdfe32c6

nuget auth login

After entering these, you will be able to see and install the pre-release packages. Make sure you use VSLee.IEXSharp and not the plain IEXSharp. The plain IEXSharp was accidentally created by an ancient commit, which has since been reverted. If you don't see any packages listed, make sure you check the "Include prerelease" box.
