It's not a party without Cake.

Is there any Cake API around devenv ? I am trying to automate certain things around opening and running Visual Studio itself.

@nawfalhasan no, not that I am aware of

Morning all. I need to upload a website via FTP, unless I'm missing something it looks like I need to use the Cake.Ftp package for this, however, it's quite limited. I started contributing to it, but then noticed the remark here https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.net.ftpwebrequest?view=netcore-2.2 that says MS don't recommend you use FtpWebRequest anymore

Am I missing a trick, is there a better way to use FTP, if not should I look at moving Cake.Ftp to use an third party library, if so, any recommendations, that are all new to me

@gep13

@franhoey that might be best answered by @phillipsj

@franhoey Another option for upload would be to use Cake.Curl, curl supports uploading files based om url using one of these protocols: FILE, FTP, FTPS, HTTP, HTTPS, IMAP, IMAPS, SCP, SFTP, SMB, SMBS, SMTP, SMTPS and TFTP.

Fran Hoey

@franhoey

What I was really hoping for, was to be able to pass in a folder or globber string and have it upload via FTP

TBH, I don't think it would be a lot of work to add in

I was surprised not to find something similar, but I guess FTP is becoming old fashioned now

Happy to contribute to Cake.FTP, I've used cake for years now, its time I did something to contribute

Hi short question, how do i push nuget symbol packages ?

NuGetPush("C:\projects\Test.snupkg", new NuGetPushSettings { ApiKey = <some-api-key>, Source = "http://<some-pro-get-url"> })

doesnt work for me ?

Mattias Karlsson

@devlead

@hienng which version of nuget.exe are you using? nuget.exe v4.9.0 or above is required.

In general nuget will push snupkg along with nupkg automatically. So you if you have both alongside each other, you just need to push nupkg.

Try executing cake with diagnostic verbosity so see how the tool is launched. Also doesn't work? In what way, script fails? Symbols not indexed?

Hi, executing MSBUILD() targeting ToolVersion VS2019. However, the msbuild version is not found.

MSBuild(coreSolution, new MSBuildSettings()
            .SetConfiguration(configurationCore)
            .SetVerbosity(Verbosity.Diagnostic)
            .SetPlatformTarget(PlatformTarget.x64)
            .WithProperty("OutputPath", buildOutputPath)
            .WithWarningsAsError()
            .SetNodeReuse(false)
            .UseToolVersion(MSBuildToolVersion.VS2019)
            .AddFileLogger(new MSBuildFileLogger
            {
                Verbosity = Verbosity.Normal,
                LogFile = coreMsbuildLogFile
            })
        );

Receive the error MSBuild: Could not locate executable.

The VS2019 tool box is installed on D:
There is another task calling NuGetRestore() which reports: MSBuild auto-detection: using msbuild version '16.3.2.50909' from 'D:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\BuildTools\MSBuild\Current\Bin'

However if I do remove the UseToolVersion, the version reported by MsBuild is Microsoft (R) Build Engine version 4.8.3761.0 together with [Microsoft .NET Framework, version 4.0.30319.42000]

Calling MsBuild from command line states Microsoft (R) Build Engine version 16.3.2+e481bbf88 for .NET Framework

@henrik_GJ_Esson_twitter when Visual Studio isn't installed in a known location I would recommend using VSWhere https://cakebuild.net/blog/2017/03/vswhere-and-visual-studio-2017-support

Does anyone know how to get the GitVersion alias working on Ubuntu? I see that the Cake project does this, but I'm not able to get it working for Shouldly.
https://github.com/shouldly/shouldly/pull/596/files

I added #module nuget:?package=Cake.DotNetTool.Module&version=0.4.0 and switched from GitVersion.CommandLine to #tool nuget:?package=GitVersion.Tool&version=5.1.2.
I also moved the build.sh bootstrapper to the latest from https://github.com/cake-build/resources.

Still getting: GitVersion: Could not locate executable.

Joseph Musser

@jnm2

Am I missing a step in getting the module properly bootstrapped?

This GitVersion thing is holding up Joseph Woodward and I was hoping to get something going for him, but I'm out of time for now. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks!

Kim J. Nordmo

@AdmiringWorm

@jnm2 for .net core tools use the #tool dotnet: instead of #tool nuget:

Joseph Musser

@jnm2

@AdmiringWorm Thanks!

Thanks @devlead !

@SIkebe

Hi! Are there any way to use cake.tool for .NET Framework project behind corporate proxy?
DotNetCoreBuild works if you have http_proxy env var, but MSBuild alias doesn't work.

Restore-NuGet-Packages
========================================
An error occurred when executing task 'Restore-NuGet-Packages'.
Error: One or more errors occurred. (Could not locate nuget.exe.)
        Could not locate nuget.exe.

Mattias Karlsson

@devlead

@SIkebe error message above is that it can't find nuget.exe have you tried installing it using tool directive i.e.

#tool "nuget:?package=nuget.commandline&version=5.3.0"

nuget.exe requires desktop framework or mono to be present though.

Joseph Musser

@jnm2

@SIkebe So long as you're not using the legacy packages.config, I'd recommend removing the restore target and setting Restore = true on the MSBuildSettings of the Build target.

(VS2017 and VS2019 support PackageReference in every kind of csproj including legacy csproj. Unless you're doing something quite specialized and dated, packages.config shouldn't be necessary.)

Mattias Karlsson

@devlead

As long as you don't have any authenticated sources, implicit restore mostly just works as is with both MSBuild & Dotnet build. That said nuget.exe does support both sdk style, old style csproj/packages.config. Implicit can have perf gains i.e. doing dotnet publish can be faster than restore&build&publish, but it can be harder to troubleshoot in some scenarios.

SIkebe

@SIkebe

@devlead Thanks as always. the tool directive worked!
@jnm2 Unfortunately, I have to maintain VS2013 projects...

SIkebe

@SIkebe

Our bootstrap script was really simplified thanks to cake.tool :)

@gitfool

Hey guys. Where are the 0.36.0 prerelease NuGet packages?

Sean Fausett

@gitfool

Found it; feed moved from https://www.myget.org/F/cake/api/v3/index.json to https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/cake-build/Cake/_packaging/cake%40Local/nuget/v3/index.json

Mattias Karlsson

@devlead

@gitfool great that you found it, MyGet has limited their OSS offering, so we couldn't push new packages and had to find an alternative. Project readme up badge to date but don't think we've had time to update docs/blog about it.

Sean Fausett

@gitfool

Interesting. Have you looked at GitHub Packages yet?

Magnus Lindhe

@mgnslndh

Hi! Is it possible to read MSBuild properties from a .props file using Cake? Would be nice to share properties between Cake and MSBuild.

Gary Ewan Park

@gep13

@gitfool I have enabled GitHub Packages for one of the projects that I am working on. There are some issues with it that make it a little challenging to use in certain places. I suspect we will enable it for the Cake Repository at some point, but I am still hoping that some of the issues are worked out.

@DTTerastar

Anyone else seeing issues w/ dynamics and the new (within the last 24h) Microsoft.CSharp 4.7?

Error: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.CSharp, Version=4.0.5.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a'.

The work around is: #addin "nuget:?package=Microsoft.CSharp&version=4.6.0"

Mattias Karlsson

@devlead

@DTTerastar is this with Cake.CoreCLR, Cake.Tool or Cake.exe? We've got integration tests passing on Mac, Linux and Windows using dynamic

Does your build.ps1 look like this one? https://github.com/cake-build/resources/blob/develop/build.ps1

@vadivel1234

Please tell me what is the usage of the highlighted lines..

Mattias Karlsson

@devlead

@vadivel1234 Not being able to resolve 'packages.nuget.org' indicates that something in the environment is blocking not facilitating DNS correctly.

Don't know that internal/streams/legacy.js:59 is, there's no javascript in the default bootstrappers, nor Cake itself.
