| 2 | Building this project will produce an analyzer .dll, as well as the
|
|---|
| 3 | following two ways you may wish to package that analyzer:
|
|---|
| 4 | * A NuGet package (.nupkg file) that will add your assembly as a
|
|---|
| 5 | project-local analyzer that participates in builds.
|
|---|
| 6 | * A VSIX extension (.vsix file) that will apply your analyzer to all projects
|
|---|
| 7 | and works just in the IDE.
|
|---|
| 8 |
|
|---|
| 9 | To debug your analyzer, make sure the default project is the VSIX project and
|
|---|
| 10 | start debugging. This will deploy the analyzer as a VSIX into another instance
|
|---|
| 11 | of Visual Studio, which is useful for debugging, even if you intend to produce
|
|---|
| 12 | a NuGet package.

| 15 | TRYING OUT YOUR NUGET PACKAGE
|
|---|
| 16 |
|
|---|
| 17 | To try out the NuGet package:
|
|---|
| 18 | 1. Create a local NuGet feed by following the instructions here:
|
|---|
| 19 | > http://docs.nuget.org/docs/creating-packages/hosting-your-own-nuget-feeds
|
|---|
| 20 | 2. Copy the .nupkg file into that folder.
|
|---|
| 21 | 3. Open the target project in Visual Studio 2015.
|
|---|
| 22 | 4. Right-click on the project node in Solution Explorer and choose Manage
|
|---|
| 23 | NuGet Packages.
|
|---|
| 24 | 5. Select the NuGet feed you created on the left.
|
|---|
| 25 | 6. Choose your analyzer from the list and click Install.
|
|---|
| 26 |
|
|---|
| 27 | If you want to automatically deploy the .nupkg file to the local feed folder
|
|---|
| 28 | when you build this project, follow these steps:
|
|---|
| 29 | 1. Right-click on this project in Solution Explorer and choose 'Unload Project'.
|
|---|
| 30 | 2. Right-click on this project and click "Edit".
|
|---|
| 31 | 3. Scroll down to the "AfterBuild" target.
|
|---|
| 32 | 4. In the "Exec" task, change the value inside "Command" after the -OutputDirectory
|
|---|
| 33 | path to point to your local NuGet feed folder. |
