A Cake AddIn to analyse the NuGet dependencies of a C# project.

The addin uses the information on the csproj or packages.config for the NuGet packages used in the project, doing a analysis:

• Using the version of the package, verifies if a newer version is available
• Produces a inline report with the NuGet dependencies versions listed

---------------------------------
Project: ./src/Cake.DependenciesAnalyser/Cake.DependenciesAnalyser.csproj
Cake.Core is on version 0.26.1. The dependency is up-to-date.
Newtonsoft.Json is on version 11.0.2. The dependency is up-to-date.
---------------------------------

---------------------------------
Project: ./src/DependencyChecker.NuGet.Adapter/DependencyChecker.NuGet.Adapter.csproj
Newtonsoft.Json is on version 11.0.2. The dependency is up-to-date.
Semver is on version 2.0.4. The dependency is up-to-date.
---------------------------------

---------------------------------
Project: ./src/Domain/Domain.csproj
Semver is on version 2.0.4. The dependency is up-to-date.

• We pretend to add a solution analyses to verify package references vs DLL references

To include the addin, add the following to the beginning of the cake script:

#addin "Cake.DependenciesAnalyser"

To use the addin, you need to configure the settings and run the AnalyseDependencies alias:

#addin "Cake.DependenciesAnalyser"
...
Task("Dependencies-Analyse")
    .Description("Runs the Dependencies Analyser on the solution.")
    .Does(() => 
    {
        var settings = new DependenciesAnalyserSettings
        {
            Folder = "./src/"
        };

        AnalyseDependencies(settings);
    });
...

The DependenciesAnalyserSettings have one mandatory option from two possible options, Folder and Project.

• Folder - The addin will recursive scan the folder for csproj and analyse them
• Project - The addin will analyse the csproj

• .NET Core 2.0 - The Framework(s)
• NuGet - Dependency Management
• Cake - Cross Platform Build Automation System
• AppVeyor - Continuous Integration & Delivery Service
