NuGet, ASP.Net MVC and WebMatrix - DB Coders Cafe - March 1st, 2011 With Sam Abraham
- by Sam Abraham
I am scheduled to share on NuGet (http://nuget.codeplex.com/) at the Deerfield Beach Coder’s Café on March 1st, 2011. My goal for this talk is to present demos and content covering how to leverage this new neat utility to easily “package” .Net-based binaries or tools and share them with others, who in-turn, can just as easy reference and readily use that same package in their Visual Studio 2010 .Net projects.
Scott Hanselman has recently blogged in great detail on creating NuGet packages.
For hosting a local NuGet package repository, Jon Galloway has a nice article update with a complete PowerShell script to simplify downloading the default feed packages which can be accessed here.
Information on my upcoming talk can be found at: http://www.fladotnet.com/Reg.aspx?EventID=514
The following is a brief abstract of the talk:
NuGet (formerly known as NuPack) is a free, open source developer focused package management system for the .NET platform intent on simplifying the process of incorporating third party libraries into a .NET application during development. NuGet is a member of the ASP.NET Gallery in the Outercurve Foundation. In this session we will:
Discuss the concept, vision and goal behind NuGet
See NuGet in action within an ASP.Net MVC project
Look at the NuGet integration in Microsoft WebMatrix
Create a NuGet package for our demo library
Explore the NuGet Project site
Configure a NuGet package feed for a local network
Solicit attendees input and feedback on the tool
Look forward to meeting you all there.
