错误 NU***0***: 找不到包<packageId> . 源中不存在具有此 ID 的包：github、nuget.org

Question

A project that useses public NUGET.ORG packages and also packages from my Org's ownnuget Github Packages registry restores just fine locally, but fails to do so inside a Github Action. Here's the exerpt from the action's yml:

name: workflow1

on:
  push:
    branches: [ main ]

jobs:

  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    permissions:
      id-token: write
      contents: write
      packages: write
      issues: write

    steps:
      - name: Check that shit out
        uses: actions/checkout@v3
      
      - name: Set that shit up
        uses: actions/setup-dotnet@v2
        with:
          dotnet-version: '6.x.x'

      - name: Build that shit
        run: |
          dotnet nuget add source https://nuget.pkg.github.com/myorg/index.json -n github -u ${{ github.actor }} -p ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }} --store-password-in-clear-text
          dotnet restore ./project.sln
          dotnet build ./project.sln --no-restore --configuration Release --nologo

Adding the nuget source is the same as recommended (as working) here . Unfortunately the Build step fails with an error like this

error NU***0***: Unable to find package <packageId>. No packages exist with this id in source(s): github, nuget.org 

I have also tried using a dedicated nuget.config file instead of expicitly adding the source on the run. This also fails, but curiously, the Github Packages registry is not even listed.

In other workflows I am also using the GITHUB_TOKEN to publish/write to the Gihub Packages registry. Now I only need to read from it, but the permissions should be okay I guess.

Any thoughts on why this keeps crahing? Any help is appreciated! Thanks.

Solved it now by myself. Posting here so it might be useful for someone else.

create nuget.config at project root, include a packageSourceMapping section.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>

  <packageSources>
    <clear />
    <add key="nuget" value="https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json" />
    <add key="github" value="https://nuget.pkg.github.com/myOrg/index.json" />
  </packageSources> 

  <packageSourceMapping>

    <packageSource key="github">
      <package pattern="packageId" />
    </packageSource>

    <packageSource key="nuget">
      <package pattern="*" />
    </packageSource>
    
  </packageSourceMapping>

</configuration>

update the source's credentials on-the-fly in the GH action's execution

name: ci

on:
  push:
    branches: [ main ]

jobs:

  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    permissions:
      id-token: write
      contents: write
      issues: write

    steps:
      - name: Check that shit out
        uses: actions/checkout@v3
      
      - name: Set that shit up
        uses: actions/setup-dotnet@v2
        with:
          dotnet-version: '6.x.x'

      - name: Build that shit
        run: |
          dotnet nuget update source github -u ${{ github.actor }} -p ${{ secrets.READ_GH_PACKAGES_PAT_ORG }} --store-password-in-clear-text
          dotnet restore ./project.sln
          dotnet build ./project.sln --no-restore --configuration Release --nologo

Note, that in my case I couldn't use the built-in ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }} and had to create one myself, since the repo containing the registry is private and not public. I also had to authorize the token for use within my organisation.
