MSBuild and package restore with packages.config

问题

Sorry if this question has been answered before, but I just cannot seem to find an answer:

Is it possible to restore packages during the build using MSBuild only if projects are still using packages.config?

回答1:

As far as I can read on https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/consume-packages/package-restore it is possible:

MSBuild: use the msbuild /t:restore command, which restores packages packages listed in the project file (PackageReference only). Available only in NuGet 4.x+ and MSBuild 15.1+, which are included with Visual Studio 2017. nuget restore and dotnet restore both use this command for applicable projects.

回答2:

According to documentation[1]:

The restore target works only for projects using the PackageReference format. It does not work for projects using the packages.config format; use nuget restore instead.

So you will have to use nuget.exe restore instead. Look my other answer for that.
