Filter by version in Proget Retention Rules
-
Hi,
We make use of the prerelease tag in the NuGet package to tag packages with different uses.
Ex:
My.Package.1.0.0-dev-20151126-1545
I'd like to be able to filter the retention rules for a feed on the version, not just id/name.
Ex. I would like to only keep the latest 10 versions of all packages that matches the "rel" tag in the version. Thins would not touch packages named ex. My.Package.1.0.0-rel-20151126-1545.
Thanks,
/Erik
Product: ProGet
Version: 3.8.6

I've noted this as a feature request!
-
Any updates on this feature?
-
Filtering retention rules by pre-release version was implemented a while ago.
-
I want to filter on the pre-release tag, not version. "my.Package" is the ID, "1.0.0" is the version and the pre-release tag is ex. "-dev-20151126-1545"
My.Package.1.0.0-dev-20151126-1545
My.Package.1.0.0-rel-20151126-1645I want to be able to delete all packages which has the word "-dev-" in the pre-release tag.
To my knowledge you can't do this at the moment.
-
No, you cannot do this as the moment and would also like to have this functionality.
-
Why would you guys want this?
I can't quite figure it out... you have a "pre-release" version called "release"? Doesn't this totally defeat the purpose of semantic versioning?
-
We've also encountered a scenario where we had hoped we could filter by the pre-release prefix/tag.
In the same feed, we have a bunch of -betaNNN packages coming from our development CI process. We also have a few -rcMMM packages that are release candidates and are undergoing additional testing.
For example, we would have liked a retention policy of keeping the last 10 -beta packages AND the last 3 -rc packages.
As it is now, if we use the "Delete prerelease versions" filter, a slew of new -beta packages will cause the older -rc packages to get purged away.
-
We will implement retention policy filtering by version. See the tracking issue here for updates: PG-1278
Hopefully it will be in the official v5.1 release (or soon-after maintenance release) but it may also be there earlier since we are also going to allow pre-release product versions to be downloaded from the Hub installer.
