I did a search on NuGet and couldn't find a Lightspeed NuGet package. I have pro license for Lightspeed 5 so I have all the binaries I need to use Lightspeed in a non-ASP.Net 5 code. However, it is my understanding that ASP.Net 5 doesn't allow you to allow you to reference DLLs directly, you have to create a NuGet package first. So, I created a NuGet package of my POCO objects, DB context and Lightspeed references and added it to a .Net Framework 4.5 console application; it added the appropriate references. However, this didn't work as expect when I tried to add this package to my to my ASP.Net 5 website (package added but using statement causes a compiler error). Does anyone know a work-around to get Lightspeed working with ASP.Net 5? Ideally Mindscape would publish a NuGet package. |

We do provide a private NuGet feed for LightSpeed 5, the feed URL you need to use is supplied under the Keys section of your Subscription. We will be publishing a feed for 5.5 binaries soon.

I found the URL and added the package source to Visual Studio 2015 I then typed Install-Package Mindscape.LightSpeed into the package manager console and it got the following error. install-package : An error occurred while retrieving package metadata for 'Mindscape.LightSpeed' from source 'http://www.mindscapehq.com/store/packages/[some GUID]'. At line:1 char:1 + install-package Mindscape.LightSpeed + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [Install-Package], Exception + FullyQualifiedErrorId : NuGetCmdletUnhandledException,NuGet.PackageManagement.PowerShellCmdlets.InstallPackageCommand Viewing the package source in the NuGet Package Manager (GUI) only displays one package. The description says "Nightly Build for 28 July 2015". I think the package is corrupted because the "Install" button doesn't appear. |

It looks like there are changes in the way NuGet 3 and above makes its API calls which we don't support so at this stage. I will let you know once we are able to add support for this but this is not a high priority for us. In the meantime you can grab any updates via the nightly build installers.

You do realise that this means people cannot build ASP.Net 5 applications using Lightspeed (not easily anyway). This means you going to lose business to Entity Framework 7, which is a complete rewrite of Entity Framework and thus will be closer to the performance of Lightspeed (possibly faster). And, it's free. I'm not telling you how to manage your priorities, but perhaps you should consider that when ordering them. |
