title: NuGet (.NET)
description: NuGet (.NET) dependencies support in Renovate
---
# NuGet
Renovate can upgrade dependencies in these files:
- `.csproj`
- `.fsproj`
- `.vbproj`
## Version Support
Renovate only works with SDK-style `.csproj`, `.fsproj` or `.vbproj` files.
By default, this includes:
- .NET Core 1.0 and above
- .NET Standard class libraries
- `.csproj`, `.fsproj` or `.vbproj` files that use the SDK-style syntax
To convert your .NET Framework `.csproj`, `.fsproj` or `.vbproj` files into an SDK-style project, follow the steps in this [guide](https://natemcmaster.com/blog/2017/03/09/vs2015-to-vs2017-upgrade/).
## How it works
1. Renovate searches in each repository for any files with a `.csproj`, `.fsproj`, or `.vbproj` extension
1. Existing dependencies are extracted from `<PackageReference>` and `<PackageVersion>` tags
1. Renovate looks up the latest version on [nuget.org](https://nuget.org) (or an alternative feed if configured) to see if any upgrades are available
1. If the source package includes a GitHub URL as its source, and has either:
- a "changelog" file, or
- uses GitHub releases
then release notes for each version are embedded in the generated PR
If your project file references a `packages.config` file, no dependencies will be extracted.
Find out here how to [migrate from `packages.config` to `PackageReference`](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/consume-packages/migrate-packages-config-to-package-reference).
## Alternate feeds
By default Renovate performs all lookups on `https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json`, but you can set alternative NuGet feeds.
You can set alternative feeds:
- in a [`NuGet.config` file](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/reference/nuget-config-file#package-source-sections) within your repository (Renovate will not search outside the repository), or
- in a Renovate configuration options file like `renovate.json`
```json
{
"nuget": {
"registryUrls": [
"https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json",
"https://example1.com/nuget/",
"https://example2.com/nuget/v3/index.json"
]
}
}
```
In the example above we've set three NuGet feeds.
The package resolving process uses the `merge` strategy to handle the three feeds.
All feeds are checked for dependency updates, and duplicate updates are merged into a single dependency update.
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
!!! warning
If your project has lockfile(s), for example a `package.lock.json` file, then you must set alternate feed settings in the `NuGet.config` file only.
`registryUrls` set in other files are **not** passed to the NuGet commands.
### Protocol versions
NuGet supports two protocol versions, `v2` and `v3`.
The NuGet client and server must use the same version.
When Renovate acts as the client, it can use the `v2` and `v3` protocols.
By default, Renovate uses the `v2` protocol.
If the configured feed URL ends with `index.json`, Renovate uses the `v3` protocol.
So Renovate behaves like the official NuGet client.
#### v3 feed URL not ending with index.json
If a `v3` feed URL does not end with `index.json`, you must specify the version explicitly.
- If the feed is defined in a `NuGet.config` file set the `protocolVersion` attribute to `3`:
```xml
<packageSources>
<clear />
<add key="myV3feed" value="http://myV3feed" protocolVersion="3" />
</packageSources>
```
- If the feed is defined via Renovate configuration append `#protocolVersion=3` to the registry URL:
```json
{
"nuget": {
"registryUrls": ["http://myV3feed#protocolVersion=3"]
}
}
```
You may need this workaround when you use the JFrog Artifactory.
## Authenticated feeds
Credentials for authenticated/private feeds can be given via host rules in the configuration options (file or command line parameter).
```json
{
"hostRules": [
{
"hostType": "nuget",
"matchHost": "http://example1.com/nuget",
"username": "root",
"password": "p4$$w0rd"
}
]
}
```
If you use Azure DevOps:
- set `matchHost` to `pkgs.dev.azure.com`
- set the username, so Renovate can build the project when it creates the PR
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
!!! note
Only Basic HTTP authentication (via username and password) is supported.
For Azure DevOps: use a PAT with `read` permissions on `Packaging`.
The username of the PAT must match the username of the _user of the PAT_.
The generated `nuget.config` forces the basic authentication, which cannot be overridden externally!
## Future work
We welcome contributions or feature requests to support more patterns or use cases.
