Help wanted: Make Lingua available on NuGet

Open JMan7777 opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

Hello,

this is a request to make this great project available to a bigger community.

It would be great if you could also make this project available on NuGet.

Many developers using MS Visual Studio would benefit from it and could use this project also in e.g. Xamarin made apps.

Thx a lot.

Hello Markus, thanks for your request and sorry for the late response.

I'm not very familiar with Microsoft's .NET ecosystem. Can Java libraries also be used there? Can you perhaps give me some starting point on how to make my library available within NuGet? Thanks.

Hello @pemistahl ,

Happy New Year to you.

You might start by having a look at: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/quickstart/create-and-publish-a-package-using-visual-studio?tabs=netcore-cli

You can choose the type of package you want to create:

  • .NET Standard
  • .NET Framework

When creating for Xamarin you should use .NET Standard.

The code is C# but when you come from Java it's almost the same ;). Most external libraries your code might depend on you will also found on NuGet, so you can easily still use them.

Hope I could point you in the right direction.

Thx.

Thank you @JMan7777. Happy new year to you as well. As soon as I find the time, I will take a look. But I cannot tell you when this will be exactly. I'm quite busy these days.
