dotGet [![Windows build status](https://ci.appveyor.com/api/projects/status/github/tonerdo/dotget?branch=master\u0026svg=true)](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/tonerdo/dotget) [![License: MIT](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-MIT-yellow.svg)](LICENSE)\n\ndotGet is a command line installer for cross platform CLI tools built with .NET Core. dotGet makes your .NET Core command line tools, distributed via NuGet, available for use via the system path.\n\n## Installation\n\n### Prerequisites\n\nInstall [.NET Core](https://www.microsoft.com/net/download/core)\n\n### Windows\n\n```powershell\n(new-object Net.WebClient).DownloadString(\"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tonerdo/dotget/master/scripts/install.ps1\") | iex\n```\n\n### Unix\n\n```shell\ncurl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tonerdo/dotget/master/scripts/install.sh | bash\n```\n_Note: Ensure that $HOME/.dotget/bin has been added to your path after installation_\n\n## Usage\n\nTo see a list of commands, run:\n\n```shell\ndotnet get --help\n```\n\nThe current commands are (output from `dotnet get --help`):\n\n```shell\n.NET Core Tools Global Installer 1.0.0.0\n\nUsage: dotnet get [options] [command]\n\nOptions:\n  -h|--help     Show help information\n  -v|--version  Show version information\n  --verbose     Enable verbose output\n\nCommands:\n  install    Installs a .NET Core tool\n  list       Lists all installed .NET Core tools\n  uninstall  Uninstalls a .NET Core tool\n  update     Updates a .NET Core tool\n\nUse \"dotnet get [command] --help\" for more information about a command.\n```\n\n### Installing a tool\n\nTo install a .NET Core tool, simply run:\n\n```shell\ndotnet get install \u003csource\u003e[@version]\n```\n\n`source` in this case is a published NuGet package with the following structure:\n\n```shell\n├── build\n├── content\n├── lib\n├── tools\n│   └── netcoreapp*.*\n│       └── \u003capp\u003e.deps.json\n│       └── \u003capp\u003e.runtimeconfig.json\n│       └── \u003capp\u003e.dll\n│       └── \u003csome-dependency\u003e.dll\n│       └── \u003csome-other-dependency\u003e.dll\n└── \u003cpackage\u003e.nuspec\n```\n\n* The NuGet package *must* contain a `tools` folder (the other folders are completely optional for dotGet)\n* The `tools` folder should have at least one sub-folder with a .NET Core App moniker (e.g `netcoreapp2.0`)\n* The contents of the `netcoreapp*.*` folder should be a published [framework dependent](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/deploying/) .NET Core app.\n* The `netcoreapp*.*` folder can contain multiple framework dependent .NET Core apps.\n\nAfter installation the command `\u003capp\u003e` will now be available from the system path and invoking that will execute the .NET Core app.\n\n### Updating a tool\n\nTo update an already installed .NET Core tool, simply run:\n\n```shell\ndotnet get update \u003csource\u003e\n```\n\n### Updating dotGet\n\nTo update dotGet itself, you just need to run the `update` command without including a `\u003csource\u003e`, like so:\n\n```shell\ndotnet get update\n```\n\n### Listing installed tools\n\nTo get a list of all installed .NET Core tools, simply run:\n\n```shell\ndotnet get list\n```\n\n### Uninstalling a tool\n\nTo remove a .NET Core tool, you simply run:\n\n```shell\ndotnet get uninstall \u003csource\u003e\n```\n\n## Issues \u0026 Contributions\n\nIf you find a bug or have a feature request, please report them at this repository's issues section.
