# Dotnet Get

> Inspired by Golang's `go get` this will install a dotnet tool by specifying a git repository URL.

# Usage

Requires `git` and `dotnet` to be available in your path.

## Install as a global tool.

`dotnet tool install DotnetGet --global`

## Install tool from repository.

`dotnet-get https://github.com/tool-repo-here`

# Notes

If your github repository has multiple projects. The tool will attempt to find all `Tool` projects by parsing the `*.csproj` file.

You will be prompted to select which tool to install.

The tool parses `*.csproj` files and looks for the following content to determine if the project

is a tool.

```xml

true

tool-name

./nupkg

```
