Does Atlassian provide a tool to manage nuget packages?

Question

We would like to build C# software with bamboo, package the dll's into a nuget package with the nuget tool and then distribute and manage the nupkg files.
To use it in visual studio a source is needed, can anyone provide some usefull tips/tools or howto?

I think that @Maarten Buth talking about some additional Atlassian Bamboo tool/widget or any other possibility that will provide the supporting of .Net packages distribution (like a private Bamboo-Nuget server that will support any package publishing and restoring if specify this server as a PackageSource while restoring), it's like Maven for Java, I think there is similar thread here since 2011:

we need a way to update a value in there as part of the build process

I do not know much about the package you are referring to. But if your intention is to pass a variable during the build process, it is possible with Variables.

You either use Inject variable plugin so that you can inject new Bamboo variables from a file or use Run customised.. to manually Override a variable in the plan with a custom one and run the plan with that.

Did that help you?

I think the challenge is that the nuspec is part of the csproj now, so we need a way to update a value in there as part of the build process. My experience tells me "no there is no task solution for this." So we would have to either write our own task or a script/executable on the build server that can patch the csproj before packing the nuget packages.
