NuGet and Unity3D

Not sure where to post this, so I'l put it here:

I've been working with NuGet to make installing libraries I've written easier. I'm wondering if anyone else is doing this and has anything to say about their NuGet experience!

 

Funny coincidence, I posted this just two days ago:

https://feedback.unity3d.com/suggestions/nuget-package-nupkg-support-in-assets-folders

Right now I have some awkward batch files that just deletes my Assets DLL folder and pulls the net35 files out of the nupkg. I had planned to sit down later this week and build something pretty similar to what you've done, so I'm very happy to see this!

Of course, it seems like it would be dead-easy for Unity to add native nupkg support as a recognized Assets folder type, especially now that the .NET platform has so firmly hitched their cart to that horse.

 

Glad it was useful to someone!

Unfortunately, this doesn't solve the issue of installing any NuGet package into a Unity3D project, but it has made my workflow a lot nicer since my appveyor builds can pop out packages. Let me know if there is anything I missed or anything else that could help. I'm definitely refining my process all the time!

 

The llama in your avatar is magnificent! Does this belong to a webcomic or something like that? If so I'd love to know where it's from.

 

Thanks! It is my own avatar. Someone made it for me as a gift.

 

I also tried suggesting a helpful feature on the NuGet side but it got tabled:
