Uploading and Downloading a NuGet Package via the Client

NuGet Package

NuGet is the package manager for the .NET ecosystem. It enables developers to publish, share, and consume .NET libraries and components. NuGet packages are the standard format for distributing these artifacts.

Constraints

The repository password for a self-hosted repo is account-specific. If you are prompted for a password while using a different account, download the configuration file from the repository's Tutorial tab to obtain it.

Prerequisites

• You have installed .NET and NuGet.
• You have created a NuGet repository.
• You have the Download/View permission on the current repository. For details about how to obtain this permission, see Configuring Repository Permissions.

You can use the .NET client only after you have added the trusted server certificate.

• To obtain the Windows trust certificate, perform the following steps:

  1. Export the server certificate.

  openssl s_client -connect {host}:443 -showcerts </dev/null 2>/dev/null | sed -ne '/-BEGIN CERTIFICATE-/,/-END CERTIFICATE-/p' |openssl x509 -outform PEM >mycertfile.pem
  openssl x509 -outform der -in mycertfile.pem -out mycertfile.crt

  mycertfile.pem and mycertfile.crt are the downloaded certificates.

  2. In Windows, use PowerShell to add the certificate trust.

  Add the certificates.

  Import-Certificate -FilePath "mycertfile.crt" -CertStoreLocation cert:\CurrentUser\Root
