[BUG] NugetTask fail when project has dependencies hosted on private repos about pharmacist

[anaisbetts]

@glennawatson thanks for all of your hard work on Pharmacist, it's a great concept and I think the new Source Generator version will be even better! 💖

We are moving to source generators for next revision which doesn't suffer from nuget source issues. Just have to wait for the visual studio version that supports it next week n

Again asking what the status of this issue is, since it looks like I'm again running into it.

Since my last post here I simply continued using ReactiveUI.Events.*, but have now upgraded Xamarin Forms to version 5.0. With this upgrade, the Expander-control, previously a part of XF, has now been moved into the Xamarin Community Toolkit (see here). Consequently, issues have arisen in using the ReactiveUI.Events.XamForms-package that still contains references to the control that now no longer exists.

I thought I could work around this issue by generating events for Xamarin Forms and Xamarin Essentials myself, in a separate project within my solution. This "events"-project is then referenced by those projects previously using packages from the ReactiveUI.Events.*-namespace. However, when building my solution, I'm now getting the exact same error as above again. It looks like Pharmacist doesn't just run on the project I set up separately to generate my events for me, but simply runs over all my projects, looking for events...

And sarcastic comments absolutely makes things happen faster.

I am seeing the same issue when we have pointers to our nuget packages hosted on Azure DevOps.

@glennawatson is there a place in code that would be a good starting point to take a look at for this? I might have some availability to take a peek into here.

[AlexanderMelchers]

What's the status on this? I'm currently in an upgrade project on our solution, and as part decided to start using ReactiveUI. However, we have a bunch of legacy NuGet-packages, and as soon as I install Pharmacist, I get this NullReferenceException. Initially, Visual Studio would even freeze every time I opened it. I had no idea what was going on, but now turning here it seems that our packages on Azure DevOps might be the problem.

Is there any way around this (config option to turn off scanning proprietary packages?), or am I just forced to fall back on the ReactiveUI.Events.*?

[AlexanderMelchers]

Cool! Looking forward to it. Not that the ReactiveUI.Events.*-packages are a bad option for the time being. But the less dependencies our project has, the better! Thanks!

Would this also give us control over which packages Pharmacist tries to process? Because I think that would be the ideal solution, to somehow be able to indicate a list of packages Pharmacist processes or explicitly excludes from processing. Because even if Pharmacist might be able to access all NuGet-packages used by a solution, it might be undesirable to have it generate event bindings for all.

[glennawatson]

It will only generate events for the explicit classes you call Events() on. It has no awareness of NuGet packages.

The code is all ready to go just need time to do a push of a NuGet push.

2 years later, still no fix.

[glennawatson]

See https://www.nuget.org/packages/ReactiveMarbles.ObservableEvents.SourceGenerator/ and https://github.com/reactivemarbles/ObservableEventsSourceGenerator

This uses the dotnet nuget system rather than a custom nuget manager, so can handle private nugets.

ReactiveMarbles.ObservableEvents.SourceGenerator 1.0.2

Allows to get an observables for property changed events.

Does you answer hides that you are shut downing pharmacist and redirect to those projects instead ?

Or is it only that you don’t care about the users of pharmacists and the management of this projet so you don’t even want to see any pr from anyone in this field ?

[glennawatson]

@softlion two years without any PR doesn't qualify you to make such a statement.
