Paket

A dependency manager for .NET with support for NuGet packages and git repositories.

Why Paket?

NuGet did not separate out the concept of transitive dependencies. If you install a package into your project and that package has further dependencies then all transitive packages are included in the packages.config. There is no way to tell which packages are only transitive dependencies.

Even more importantly: If two packages reference conflicting versions of a package, NuGet will silently take the latest version (read more). You have no control over this process.

Paket on the other hand maintains this information on a consistent and stable basis within the paket.lock file in the solution root. This file, together with the paket.dependencies file enables you to determine exactly what's happening with your dependencies.

Paket also enables you to reference files directly from git repositories or any http-resource.

Troubleshooting and support

Quick contributing guide

  • Fork and clone locally.
  • Build the solution with Visual Studio, build.cmd or build.sh.
  • Create a topic specific branch in git. Add a nice feature in the code. Do not forget to add tests and/or docs.
  • Run build.cmd (build.sh on Linux/macOS) to make sure all tests are still passing.
  • When built, you'll find the binaries in ./bin which you can then test with locally, to ensure the bug or feature has been successfully implemented.
  • Send a Pull Request.

If you want to contribute to the docs then please modify the markdown files in /docs/content and send a pull request. Note, that short description and syntax for each command is generated automatically from the Paket.Commands module.

Loading failed

fix: `paket pack --symbols` no longer fails on a project with Compile entries without an `Include` or `Update` attribute, such as `<Compile Remove="..." />` or a Compile item definition in an `ItemDefinitionGroup`, and leaves out of the symbols package the files that a Remove names without wildcards - https://github.com/fsprojects/Paket/issues/4222
fix: `paket update --no-install` no longer fails when a group has `generate_load_scripts: true` and the packages of the new paket.lock aren't all restored, as on a fresh checkout or for a package that the update adds: it leaves the load scripts to the next restore, which downloads the packages that they load - https://github.com/fsprojects/Paket/issues/2785
fix: `paket install` no longer warns about missing "redirects: force" for FSharp.Core in SDK projects that take their target framework from Directory.Build.props, by inheriting it or through a property such as ``. Paket, which doesn't read Directory.Build.props, also stops taking such a property for net10 (.NET Framework 1.0): where it needs the framework of the project, as for `framework: auto-detect` or `paket pack`, it falls back to net40, like for a project without framework - https://github.com/fsprojects/Paket/issues/4485
