# NuGet Dependency Checker

[![Build status](https://dev.azure.com/webdude/DependencyChecker/_apis/build/status/DependencyChecker)](https://dev.azure.com/webdude/DependencyChecker/_build/latest?definitionId=22)

Simple Tool for checking NuGet Dependencies and publish a report as build artifact. The results will be added to a new build tab and can be saved as build artifact. *(no dashboard widget yet, but i will work on it!)*.

**Feel free to submit future requests as issues!**

## How to start

First add the root directory of the project as Searchpath. This is usually `$(Build.SourcesDirectory)`. If you also check the Search Recursive box all packages.config files will be analyzed.

Now you can say if you want to create a badge and if to create a report. The destination or the reportfile is very important. By default it will be created in the `$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)` directory. Another build tasks has to handle this file. Ex. copy it to a webserver. Depending on your infrastructure you can also do this directly by `\\yourserver\yourshare\dependencies.html`. Just do the same with the badge path.

## Options

### Search Path

Path to check for the packages.config files.

### Search Recursive

Search subdirectories for the packages files.

### Combine Projects

This option will combine all found projects and lists all packages in a distincted form. If a package is installed several times, it will be listed seperatly. This option is similar to Visual Studios "Consolidation" function

### Include Prerelease

Include prerelease packages for search?

### Custom NuGet config file

Define your custom NuGet config which has additional sources.

### Create Badge

Create a badge using [DotBadge](https://github.com/rebornix/DotBadge).

### Create Badge per project

If selected, a badge will be created for every single project found. If not selected, the information of all projects will be aggregated and "the worst" will be generated.

### Badge Path

Where to save the badge and its name. (only available if only one badge needs to be generated)

### Badges Directory Path

Path of the directory where the badges should be generated (only available if multiple badges should be generated)

### Style

The style of the badge.

### Create Report

Create a report of the packages.

### Report Path

Location and name where to save report.
