DESCRIPTION

For information about where local tools are stored, see dotnet tool install.

OPTIONS

•
--configfile <FILE>

The NuGet configuration file (nuget.config) to use. If specified, only the settings from this file will be used. If not specified, the hierarchy of configuration files from the current directory will be used. For more information, see Common NuGet Configurations.

•
--add-source <SOURCE>

Adds an additional NuGet package source to use during installation. Feeds are accessed in parallel, not sequentially in some order of precedence. If the same package and version is in multiple feeds, the fastest feed wins. For more information, see What happens when a NuGet package is installed?.

•
--tool-manifest <PATH>

Path to the manifest file.

•
--disable-parallel

Prevent restoring multiple projects in parallel.

•
--ignore-failed-sources

Treat package source failures as warnings.

•
--no-cache

Do not cache packages and http requests.

•
--interactive

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

•
-?|-h|--help

Prints out a description of how to use the command.

•
-v|--verbosity <LEVEL>

Sets the verbosity level of the command. Allowed values are q[uiet], m[inimal], n[ormal], d[etailed], and diag[nostic]. For more information, see <xref:Microsoft.Build.Framework.LoggerVerbosity>.
