UGIALT.net conf 7: proposals, dates and voting
Nov 1118During the last 3 weeks I’ve been pretty busy with the organization of the UGIALT.net of next 21st January. This post is a quick update on the status of the Call For Presenters and the next steps that will lead to the big day. First of all: the official closing date for the CFP is November 27, at 23:59 CET, so you still have 9 days to think about something and submit it. So far, we have received 29 proposals, from 23 different speakers, and the agenda will have 3 tracks of 5 slots and one ...

Enabling conditional Basic HTTP authentication on a WCF OData service
Jun 1128Yes, a long title, but also something I was not able to find too easily using Google. Here’s the situation: for MyGet, we are implementing basic authentication to the OData feed serving available NuGet packages. If you recall my post Using dynamic WCF service routes, you may have deducted that MyGet uses that technique to have one WCF OData service serving the feeds of all our users. It’s just convenient! Unless you want basic HTTP authentication for some feeds and not for others… After doin...

NuGet for the Enterprise: NuGet in a Continuous Integration Automated Build System
May 1125I had the pleasure of speaking at TechEd 2011 North America last week in Atlanta. You can see ALL the videos of all the sessions on Channel 9. As an aside, you might notice that they are in the process of organizing video archives of ALL Microsoft developer events at http://channel9.msdn.com/Events. You can even see PDC 1999 if you like or see sessions by Speaker at http://channel9.msdn.com/Events/Speakers. Here are all my talks with a horrible headshot that I plan on asking Duncan to swap ou...

Using dynamic WCF service routes
May 1109For a demo I am working on, I’m creating an OData feed. This OData feed is in essence a WCF service which is activated using System.ServiceModel.Activation.ServiceRoute. The idea of using that technique is simple: map an incoming URL route, e.g. “http://example.com/MyService” to a WCF service. But there’s a catch in ServiceRoute: unlike ASP.NET routing, it does not support the usage of route data. This means that if I want to create a service which can exist multiple times but in different con...

How To Find Out Which NuGet Packages Depend on Yours
Feb 1124Renaming a package ID is a potentially destructive action and one we don’t recommend doing. Why? Well if any other packages depend on your package, you’ve effectively broken them if you change your package ID. For example, today I wanted to rename a poorly named package, MicrosoftWebMvc, to Mvc2Futures. What I ended up doing is recreating the same package with the new ID and uploading it. That way existing packages that depend on MicrosoftWebMvc aren’t broken. But now, I have two packages ...

Building a Self Updating Site Using NuGet
Jan 1116For those of you who enjoy learning about a technology via screencast, I’ve recorded a video to accompany and complement this blog post. The screencast shows you what this package does, and the blog post covers more of the implementation details. A key feature of any package manager is the ability to let you know when there’s an update available for a package and let you easily install that update. For example, when we deployed the release candidate for NuGet, the Visual Studio Extension M...

Tools for the lazy: Templify and NuGet
Jan 1107In this blog post, I will cover two interesting tools that, when combined, can bring great value and speed at the beginning of any new software project that has to meet standards that are to be re-used for every project. The tools? Templify and NuGet. You know the drill. Starting off with a new project usually consists of boring, repetitive tasks, often enforced by (good!) practices defined by the company you work for (or by yourself for that company). To give you an example of a project Ive...
