Nuget List CLI 命令显示已删除的包

Question

I am on a Mac using .net core 2.0 and Jetbrains Rider. I have a network folder where I publish my private nuget packages.

nuget push <packagePath> -source <localNugetPath>

I delete a package from the local folder.

nuget delete <packageID> <packageVersion> [options]

This deleted the nuget package from the network folder but yet it still shows in Rider as an options.

nuget list [search terms] [options]

The above nuget list command will also show the package. How do I permanently get ride of the package?

Answer 1

NuGet does not allow for package delete and instead relies on unlisting the packages. This means:

• This unlisted version is not shown in new searches and hence will not get auto resolved to, in new projects.
• However, existing projects that have references to this unlisted version continue to work as before. (And that's one of the reasons for not allowing delete - so that existing projects do not break)

The package can shows because it cached. To clean all cache use command:

nuget locals all -clear
