Use feed views to share packages

  • Artikel

TFS 2017

Feed views are a way to enable users to share some packages while keeping other packages private. Views filter the feed to a subset of packages that meet a set of criteria defined by that view.

By default, Azure Artifacts comes with three views: @Local, @Prerelease, and @Release. @local is the default view that contains all the published packages as well as all the packages saved from an upstream source. All views support NuGet, npm, Maven, Python, and Universal packages.

Promote packages

With Azure Artifacts, you can promote packages to a specific to only share a subset of packages with your customers. Note that you cannot publish a package directly to a view. Instead, you should publish the package to your feed then promote it to a view as follows.

  1. Select Artifacts.

  2. Select your feed from the dropdown menu.

  3. Select the package you wish to promote.

  4. Select Promote.

Promote packages using the REST API

In addition to using the Azure Artifacts user interface, you can also promote packages using the REST API.

    Use JsonPatchOperation to construct the body of your request. See NuGet - update package version for more details.

  • npm:

    PATCH https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/{organization}/_apis/packaging/feeds/{feedId}/npm/{packageName}/versions/{packageVersion}?api-version=5.1-preview.1

    Use JsonPatchOperation to construct the body of your request. See npm - update package version for more details.

  • Python:

    PATCH https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/packaging/feeds/{feedId}/pypi/packages/{packageName}/versions/{packageVersion}?api-version=5.1-preview.1

    Use JsonPatchOperation to construct the body of your request. See Python - update package version for more details.
