NuGet v3 API in community server

[dtretyakov]

Since choco CLI v2 supports NuGet v3 protocol it will be great to support it in community server.

According to the documentation it looks like it works as v2 server: https://docs.chocolatey.org/en-us/community-repository/community-packages-disclaimer

packages from the community repository (https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2)

Any plans to upgrade community server or it was done update documentation?

Yes, this is something that we are going to be undertaking, but there is currently no time frame for when this will be provided. The decision was made to first support NuGet v3 feeds within Chocolatey CLI (which means that you can then use Chocolatey CLI with repositories that do support it), and then we will provide a V3 feed on the Chocolatey Community Repository.

@gep13, Chocolatey CLI v2.0.0 with support for API v3 has been released May 31, 2023 (five days before your reply). 15 months have passed since that release. Could you please give a quick update on the status of v3 in the community repository?

NuGet v3 support hasn't been added to the Chocolatey Community Repository as yet. While this is a priority for us, it's in planning. The v2 API continues to provide Chocolatey CLI with all the functionality it needs.

Thanks a lot.

There's one problem with this: The documentation mentions that people can use Nexus to cache the community repository, but according to Nexus documentation, it doesn't support everything needed by Chocolatey in its NuGet V2 implementation.

Can you tell me what is broken?

[dhs-rec]

Sorry, forget about this. That was just my interpretation of the Nexus documentation. Did a quick test setup and it seems to work.

I am putting together an issue around Chocolatey CLI and Nexus just now. I will post the link to it here once it's complete.
