DESCRIPTION

The dotnet new details command displays the metadata of the template package from the package name provided. By default, the command searches for the latest available version.

ARGUMENTS

OPTIONS

--add-source|--nuget-source <SOURCE>

By default, dotnet new details uses the hierarchy of NuGet configuration files from the current directory to determine the NuGet source the package can be installed from. If --nuget-source is specified, the source is added to the list of sources to be checked. To check the configured sources for the current directory use dotnet nuget list source. For more information, see Common NuGet Configurations

--interactive

Allows the command to stop and wait for user input or action. For example, to complete authentication.

-d|--diagnostics

Enables diagnostic output.

-h|--help

Displays help for the search command.

EXAMPLES

dotnet new details NUnit3.DotNetNew.Template
