I have a NuGet package in one private NuGet Feed. I want to include that NuGet package in a different private NuGet Feed. How do I add a package to NuGet from my local computer?
Thank you
It depends on the feed you want to add the package to. If it's an HTTP feed that supports the NuGet protocol, like nuget.org or an Azure Devops Artifacts feed, then you can use nuget.exe push. Some HTTP feeds may have a web page you can use to upload the package to. If you have a local file feed (even if it's a network share, it's still operating system file IO), then you can use nuget add, but nuget push may work as well.
Unless you give us more information about your private feed, we can only give you this generic advice.

I have an Azure Pipelines job setup to authenticate to a private NuGet feed in Azure Artifacts, and then build my .NET project that relies on a NuGet package in the feed. However, my private package is a pretty common name. How can I ensure that it only installs that specific package from my private feed, and doesn't try to fallback to the NuGet general gallery? I do not want it to pull in an incorrect package that has the same name and version name as my private package.
Once you configure multiple sources/feeds, NuGet will look for a package in all these sources together with no guarantee of where the package will be downloaded from. However, you could make the AzDo artifacts feed as the only configured feed and then upstream other sources from it. This way NuGet will get all packages from the configured AzDo artifacts source and AzDo artifacts will source other packages not available with it from the upstreamed sources in the order defined. More info can be found here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/artifacts/concepts/upstream-sources?view=azure-devops
I am looking for practical options to develop and test private nuget packages.
We have a set of "core" code that is delivered securely through an Azure Artifact Feed. We have various "consuming" applications that use the core nuget packages.
As a small-medium team, one person may be developing the core nuget as well as consuming it.
Today we check-in / merge the code for the nuget package. Make sure the Pull request is approved / passes. Then the build updates the Azure Artifact feed.
Then we come back to the "consuming" app and can update the package. Works great if you fix / add the feature the first time. However, slows down productivity when treating this as an iterative development approach.
Looking for simple options for a small team. Random thoughts on options:
Push nuget "alpha" package straight from developer's machine to Azure Artifact feed. Symbol server too?
Do something with an Azure build to allow "feature" branches to publish to Azure Artifact feed somehow?
Push to local nuget feed. Include pdbs so it can be debugged?
Temporarily break the nuget reference directly for local copy of dll(s)?
Re-think using nuget packages as a whole?
Push nuget "alpha" package straight from developer's machine to Azure Artifact feed. Symbol server too?
It depends on whether you need to debug it. If you need do debug this "alpha" package, you have to push the symbol package to the symbol server.
Note: You do not need to push the "alpha" package to the symbol server, just the symbol package.
Do something with an Azure build to allow "feature" branches to
publish to Azure Artifact feed somehow?
There is a task Push NuGet packages, we could use it to publish to Azure Artifact feed during build, no matter which branch it is on. It depends on whether you have enough permissions for the Azure Artifact feed, you can check it from Artifacts->Settings->Feed settings->Permissions:
Push to local nuget feed. Include pdbs so it can be debugged?
No, you also have to include the source code. Check this thread for some more details.
And there is a lightweight solution how to debugged nuget package on local feed on a network share.
Temporarily break the nuget reference directly for local copy of
dll(s)?
Re-think using nuget packages as a whole?
The answer is yes, when we develop the project on the local, use project reference is better than nuget, check my another post for some more details:
Ticket: Project reference VS NuGet.
Hope this helps.
In artifacts I have created a feed,and all seems good. It publishes my packages to the feed.Good
If I understood it correctly it can work like a " private Nuget server" if you like and have all the packages that your team should be using.
I need to push several public packages to my feed.
EG How can I push "Newtonsoft" version 11.2 to my feed on azure devops?
Is this a manual step?
Can be automated?
many thanks
You don't need to do anything. Configure your feed to use NuGet.org as an upstream package source and any packages that are available on NuGet will be automatically cached when restored.
I have created a nuget package and I want to share it with my team using Nuget Gallery.
I need to publish the nuget package privately.
So I have managed to build the Nuget Gallery from Nuget Gallery build steps
When I run the build, Google Chrome shows up with "localhost" website address showing Nuget Gallery.
1) How do I add the nuget package that I have created recently to the local Nuget Gallery?
2) How do I publish the Nuget Gallery and share with my team after I have managed to add nuget package in that gallery?
Thanks
You can also create your own Nuget server running in your local network by using the Microsoft NuGet.Server available in nuget.org ;-)
If you haven't seen it already, have a look at the docs on hosting a private nuget feed. TeamCity has a NuGet feed built-in, so you may not need to host a NuGetGallery yourself.
Depending on where/how you host your private feed, it might have a UI that you can use to upload packages (such as the NuGet Gallery). But if you're creating packages as part of a CI pipeline, it's probably easier to just use nuget push and use the -Source parameter to specify which source you want to push to, assuming your nuget.config has more than once source defined.
I have a web public folder which I use when I want to share any file so I was thinking on having my nuget package there. I tried to push it using:
nuget push Me.Utility.1.0.nupkg API_KEY -Source http://www.mywebpage.mx/packages
then it asked me for the credentials but none of the ones I put have worked (the credentials are correct). My web folder is not a nuget feed is just a web shared folder. Is not clear to me if the problem is that it should be a nuget feed (something like myget service) or which is the minimum infrastructure that I need to have since this is only one nuget package. I want to host my package at my own server and also I want my package to appear in the official gallery, so in that case should I set up my own nuget feed?
Could you please explain how this should be done?
MyGet.org supports pushing packages upstream, for instance to NuGet.org. Check out this blogpost to know how to do this: http://blog.myget.org/post/2012/03/01/Introducing-MyGet-package-source-proxy-(beta).aspx
The official gallery meaning nuget.org? With nuget.org you can't choose to host your nupkg on an external site, nuget.org has to host it for you. You might be confusing myget.org and nuget.org concepts.
PS: if you use the argument to override 'source' then you are no longer using the official gallery nuget.org. Hence the question title is confusing.
We have a (free) product that may help you. ProGet gives you the ability to host a custom NuGet feed on your own network, and allows you seamlessly connect to an existing feed such as the NuGet.org one with a "connector". If you publish to the official NuGet gallery and enable caching on your private feed in ProGet, anytime you consume your own package from the official NuGet feed it will automatically cache it (and any others) on your network for you.
