PR Summary
Adds automatic RID (Runtime Identifier) and TFM (Target Framework Moniker) filtering during package extraction, plus two new parameters (
-RuntimeIdentifier,-TargetFramework) for explicit cross-platform/cross-framework deployment.Design Decisions for Review
1. Root-level RID folders, not NuGet
runtimes/conventionPowerShell modules use
win-x64/,linux-x64/at the package root for native assets, not the standard NuGetruntimes/{rid}/native/layout. Filtering targets this PS-ecosystem convention.2. Merge semantics on re-install with explicit overrides
-TargetFrameworkor-RuntimeIdentifier+ already installed → merge new content into existing version directory without overwriting files-Reinstall+ override → full replace (clean filtered install)This enables incremental multi-target builds:
3. Singular TFM selection — no fallback extraction
NuGet.Frameworks.FrameworkReducerpicks the single best-match TFM fromlib/. Only that TFM's assemblies are extracted — no fallback that extracts multiple TFMs. This prevents accidental cross-lineage mixing but means users must explicitly merge if they need both.4. Cross-lineage warning
When the selected TFM is .NETCoreApp but the package also has
net472(or vice versa), a non-fatal warning tells the user how to add the other lineage:PR Context
Platform aware installation was brought up in issue: #794.
