Packages() vs FindPackagesById() behavior on forwarded streams (Remote Repository)
-
Hi,
We have started using Paket (https://fsprojects.github.io/Paket/) with ProGet and we encountered an issue where the packages dependencies were not always resolved the same way between two Updates.
I traced through their code and figured out the reason was that the two following calls to ProGet were not returning the same lists (they are currently only using the first answered request) :
/Packages?$filter=Id eq 'PACKAGE_NAME'
/FindPackagesById()?id='PACKAGE_NAME'FindPackagesById returned all packages but Packages filtered out the remote packages.
I was wondering if it was intended behavior so I can proceed to create a Change Request to Packet or if it was a ProGet issue.
Thank you and have a nice day

I was only able to reproduce the difference in packages returned when the casing of the id was different than the actual ID of the package, i.e. for jQuery:
http://proget/nuget/Default/Packages?$filter=Id eq 'jquery'
and
http://proget/nuget/Default/FindPackagesById()?id='jquery'
The
Packages
endpoint does not return remote packages because searching in this manner is case-sensitive, while it is not forFindPackagesById
. The solution seems to be always useFindPackagesById
, or use/Packages?$filter=tolower(Id) eq 'jquery'
.
