Custom nuspec files about dnx HOT 6 CLOSED

Yea, this is an interesting one. Need to think about it a bit since the entire point of the project.json was to remove the need for a nuspec + csproj + packages.config. Today other projects work around this in weird ways so it's worth looking into.

We've decided to not support these scenarios. We'll never support the full breadth of what nuget does so for those scenarios that fall outside of single dll, per package you should use a nuspec or edit the nupkg file that came out of the k build.

Sounds good. As a workaround, I am injecting files into the nupkg post build. See https://github.com/aspnet/xunit/blob/k2/makefile.shade

It's my experience that don't include a half feature unless you provide a simple way to override it. What's the simple way to configure what is packaged from our project?

How do I have the project build and place files to the output folder but lets me do the actual nuget package stuff?

I need a fully featured nuget package configuration.

You can always use dnu build to compile assemblies and then use the traditional nuget pack command.

nuget pack doesn't seem to work for me.

I get the following:

WARNING: 2 issue(s) found with package 'csharp-extensions'.

Issue: Assembly outside lib folder.
Description: The assembly 'bin\Debug\dnx46\csharp-extensions.dll' is not inside the 'lib' folder and hence it won't be a

Solution: Move it into the 'lib' folder if it should be referenced.

Why doesn't it copy to the lib folder? and why, when I move those folders (dnxcore50 and dnx46) to lib, does it still not work? (still shows those warnings)
