Change default .nuget/package folder .NET Core

[SerhiiS-in6k]

Text from documentation:
If not specified, the default NuGet package cache is used. It is found in the .nuget/packages directory in the user's home directory on all operating systems (for example, /home/user1 on Linux or C:\Users\user1 on Windows).
Can I change .nuget/packages location?

I think the NUGET_PACKAGES environment variable might be what you're after.

Thanks it really works. but I have one more issue dotnet create two folders .nuget/Nuget and .dotnet. How to prevent to create this folder?

[jcansdale]

I don't know about the .dotnet folder. Where does this appear?

[SerhiiS-in6k]

I tried to use dotnet cli without installation(just launch from the path in a script) . But cli creates two folders:

/home/<user>/.nuget
/home/<user>/.dotnet

I think it will cause an error because of it may add issues to simultaneous builds on CI.

@SerhiiS-in6k are you installing using the dotnet-install.sh script?
