Cake Build - Update NuGet package to the newest version

I have a solution with 5 projects in it. Every project is deployed via a nuget-push. Some projects reference other projects via nuget. In order to work properly these nuget-packages have to be updated before they are pushed.

For this we use Cake-Build but the nuget update is not working on core/standard projects. Instead it is necessary to use remove --> add, which is not working for me?

How can I handle this?

Example:

Now the Build-Script would compile A and B, increment the version to v1.0.1, and push the nuget-package. Before C is build the nuget packages to A & B needs to be updated.

Example:

How I'm able to update the packages via Cake-Build?!?

If you use project references and build as part of same solution, you should be able to get everything referenced correctly. That's how Cake itself is built.

  • Cake.exe / dll depends on
    • Cake.Core
    • Cake.Common which depends on
      • Cake.Core

When we i.e. build 0.30.0 we pass that version as common MSBuildSettings to Restore. Build and Pack. Rough example

string configuration = "Release",
       version = "0.30.0",
       semVersion = "0.30.0"; // for pre-release this is suffixed i.e. -alpha-001

DotNetCoreMSBuildSettings msBuildSettings = new DotNetCoreMSBuildSettings()
                            .WithProperty("Version", semVersion)
                            .WithProperty("AssemblyVersion", version)
                            .WithProperty("FileVersion", version);


DotNetCoreRestore("./src/Cake.sln", new DotNetCoreRestoreSettings
{
    Verbosity = DotNetCoreVerbosity.Minimal,
    Sources = new [] { "https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json" },
    MSBuildSettings = msBuildSettings
});

DotNetCoreBuild("./src/Cake.sln", new DotNetCoreBuildSettings()
{
    Configuration = configuration,
    NoRestore = true,
    MSBuildSettings = msBuildSettings
});

var projects = GetFiles("./src/**/*.csproj");

foreach(var project in projects)
{
    DotNetCorePack(project.FullPath, new DotNetCorePackSettings {
        Configuration = configuration,
        OutputDirectory = "./nuget,
        NoBuild = true,
        NoRestore = true,
        IncludeSymbols = true,
        MSBuildSettings = msBuildSettings
    });

}

A project reference in .NET Core csproj looks like

<ProjectReference Include="..\Cake.Core\Cake.Core.csproj" />
