Use GitHub Packages from different Organization

[AlexanderRichter]

Hello, we are trying to find our way through different scenarios on how to use Al-Go.

Our current idea is to have one GitHub Organization for our Producut Development Team. There we want to store all our Apps in GitHub Packages.

In a different we want to manage the individual Projects.

How could we configure Al-Go to use the Packages from the Product Org for depenendy resolution and still have the Packages from Custom Projects within the Project Orgainzation.

My question ist, is there a way to manage mulitple GitHubPackagesContext for one organization.

I had a similar question here: https://github.com/microsoft/AL-Go/issues/827. Feature https://github.com/microsoft/AL-Go/issues/261 should be in preview now (didn't check).

i updated the al go settings with using freddydk/AL-Go@nuget and added a trusted nuget feed in my settings

"TrustedNuGetFeeds": [ { "Url": "https://nuget.pkg.github.com/MYProductOrg/index.json", "AuthTokenSecret": "GhTokenWorkflow" } ]

Then i went to my custom app in Project Org and and added a dependency as usual. Unfortunaley the build fails because dependency could not be resolved.

Checking the Log dont even see it that the Package gehts downloaded.

The Log shows for Step "Download Project Dependencies"

Yes, you should be able to add multiple trusted organizations. I haven't tried this myself - but will try next week, when I get back from vacation

[AlexanderRichter]

thanks freddy, enjoy your vacation :)

I'm facing the problem here too. I have published nuget packages in my organisation account on github. I have generated a personal token with the package:read attribute.

In my personal github account, I've created a repo using the nuget branch template. I created an app. In this app I created a dependency to my organisation app. In the .AL-Go/settings.json I have added the settings

{
  "country": "fr",
  "appFolders": [],
  "testFolders": [],
  "bcptTestFolders": [],
  "TrustedNuGetFeeds": [
    {
        "Url": "https://nuget.pkg.github.com/MyOrg/index.json",
        "AuthTokenSecret": "GhNuGetMyOrg"
    }
  ]
}

in the Action secret I have added GhNuGetMyOrg with the previously generated personal token.

The build fails.

The following command works on my server :

PS C:\actions-runner> Get-BcNuGetPackage -nuGetServerUrl "https://nuget.pkg.github.com/MyOrgPF/index.json" -nuGetToken "ghp_MyOrgPackageReadToken" -packageName "a00a0000-aa00-0000-0000-0aaa00a00000"

I've attached the debug log of the CI/CD action

hope it helps debug_nuget.zip

Sorry for the delay on this - have been busy on BC24 / PS7 stuff, but will have a look at this next week.

[ronnykwon]

I would suggest to have custom script that would run on specific lifecycle event in the same spirit of BC integration

[freddydk]

You need to move the TrustedNuGetFeeds setting to the repository settings file (.github/AL-Go-Settings.json) The project settings file (.AL-Go/settings.json) cannot contain ContainerHelper settings as it is today.

And sorry for the long wait here :-(
