Azure DevOps Services | Azure DevOps Server 2022 - Azure DevOps Server 2019

With Azure Artifacts upstream sources, developers are able to consume packages from public registries such as nuget.org and npmjs.com. This article will walk you through the process of setting up your project and using the command line to effectively consume NuGet packages from the NuGet Gallery. In this article, you'll learn how to:

  • Enable upstream sources for your feed
  • Add NuGet Gallery as an upstream source
  • Connect to your feed
  • Install packages from nuget.org

Prerequisites

Enable upstream sources on your feed

If you haven't created a feed yet, follow the steps below to create a new one and make sure you select the upstream sources checkbox to enable them. If you already have a feed, proceed to the next step to add the NuGet Gallery as an upstream source.

  1. Sign in to your Azure DevOps organization and navigate to your project.

  2. Select Artifacts, and then select Create Feed.

  3. Provide a Name for your feed, choose the Visibility option that defines who can view your packages, check Include packages from common public sources if you want to include packages from sources like nuget.org or npmjs.com, and for Scope, decide whether the feed should be scoped to your project or the entire organization.

  4. Select Create when you're done.

Note

By default, newly created feeds have their project's Build Service value set to Feed and Upstream Reader (Collaborator).

If you've checked the upstream sources checkbox when making your feed, NuGet Gallery should have been added automatically. If not, add it manually by following these steps:

  1. Sign in to your Azure DevOps organization, and then navigate to your project.

  2. Select Artifacts, and then select your feed.

  3. Select the gear icon button gear icon to navigate to your Feed settings.

  4. Select Upstream Sources, and then select Add Upstream to add a new upstream source.

  5. Select Public source, and then select NuGet Gallery from the dropdown menu.

  6. Select Add when you're done, and then select Save one more time at the top right corner to save your changes.

  1. Sign in to your Azure DevOps server, and then navigate to your project.

  2. Select Artifacts, and then select your feed.

  3. Select the gear icon button gear icon to navigate to your Feed settings.

  4. Select Upstream Sources, and then select Add Upstream.

  5. Select Public source, and then select NuGet Gallery from the dropdown menu.

  6. Select Save when you're done, and then select Save one more time at the top right corner to save your changes.

  1. Sign in to your Azure DevOps server, and then navigate to your project.

  2. Select Artifacts, and then select your feed.

  3. Select the gear icon button gear icon to navigate to your Feed settings.

  4. Select Upstream Sources, and then select Add upstream source.

  5. Select Public source, and then select NuGet Gallery from the dropdown menu.

  6. Select Add when you're done.

Connect to feed

  1. Sign in to your Azure DevOps organization, and then navigate to your project.

  2. Select Artifacts, and then select your feed.

  3. Select Connect to feed, and then select NuGet.exe.

  4. Add a nuget.config file in the same folder as your .csproj or .sln file. Paste the provided XML snippet into your file. If you use the examples below, make sure you replace the placeholders with the appropriate values for your scenario.

    • Organization-scoped feed:

      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
  <packageSources>
    <clear />
    <add key="<SOURCE_NAME>" value="https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/<ORGANIZATION_NAME>/_packaging/<FEED_NAME>/nuget/v3/index.json" />
  </packageSources>
</configuration>

    • Project-scoped feed:

      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
  <packageSources>
    <clear />
    <add key="<SOURCE_NAME>" value="https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/<ORGANIZATION_NAME>/<PROJECT_NAME>/_packaging/<FEED_NAME>/nuget/v3/index.json" />
  </packageSources>
</configuration>

  1. Sign in to your Azure DevOps server, and then navigate to your project.

  2. Select Artifacts, and then select your feed.

  3. Select Connect to Feed, and then select NuGet.exe from the left navigation pane.

  4. Follow the instructions in the Project setup section to connect to your feed.

  1. Sign in to your Azure DevOps server, and then navigate to your project.

  2. Select Artifacts, and then select your feed.

  3. Select Connect to Feed, and then select NuGet from the left navigation pane.

  4. Follow the provided instructions to add your package source URL to your nuget.config file.

With our project now configured to authenticate with our feed, we can now proceed to install packages from the NuGet Gallery upstream. In this example, we will install the Serilog diagnostic logging library:

  1. Navigate to the NuGet Gallery at https://www.nuget.org/.

  2. Search for the Serilog package, and then select it to navigate to the details page.

  3. Select the Package Manager tab, and copy the command. In our example, the command is as follows:

    NuGet\Install-Package Serilog -Version 3.1.2-dev-02097

  4. Open your project in Visual Studio, and then select Tools > NuGet Package Manager > Package Manager Console to open the console window.

  5. Paste your command in the Package Manager Console window, and press Enter to install your package.

Note

To save packages from upstreams, you must have the Feed and Upstream Reader (Collaborator) role or higher. See Manage Permissions for more details.

View saved packages
