Drop path contents



  • When doing a batch import via a feed's drop path, are package files supposed to remain there once they've been successfully imported?

    I'm currently trying to migrate hundreds of packages, but it's hard for me to tell if/when it is finished correctly.

    Product: ProGet
    Version: 3.8.5



  • If the Bulk Import Drop Path is set, ProGet will periodically scan this path for packages to import into the feed. Each package that is successfully imported will then be deleted from this path.

    This is useful for a one-time import of lots of packages, or as a target for a build tool that produces a NuGet package.

    Note that a bulk import is intended only for importing new packages, and will not overwrite packages.



  • Ah alright, there are a lot of potential overwrites in the packages I'm importing. Not a big deal though, I can run a script to compare & delete with the package directory.

    Appreciate the super quick response!



  • Just a quick note to add to this, there is a setting on the Admin->Advanced Settings page called AllowDropPathImportOverwrite that will allow drop path packages to overwrite feed packages when set to true.
