C NuGet package error in Azure DevOps with image

Question

I'm creating a NuGet package to distribute in my organization. Following a post online, the pipeline is working. In Azure DevOps I created the Artifacts, the pipeline buils the NuGet package and push it in the Artifacts as I expected. I'm using Visual Studio 2021.

So, in the property of the project I selected an icon.

I committed this change and now Azure DevOps gives me an error. So, I created a folder in the project called Images and here I pasted the image I want to use and updated the path from Visua Studio. The error is the same.

##[error]CSC(0,0): Error CS7064: Error opening icon file /home/vsts/work/1/s/Images/psc_logo.ico -- Could not find a part of the path '/home/vsts/work/1/s/Images/psc_logo.ico'.

Also, in Visual Studio I see the package but the description and the author are different from what I filled in the property.

How can I fix it?

Answer 1

According to the error message, it seems you need add the file psc_logo.ico to the source control, the repo.

But, if you want to specify the icon for the package, then the way you are setting the icon is incorrect.

The package settings should be specified in the Package tab.

And for the icon of the package, you could specify following Property in the project file:

<PropertyGroup>
    ...
    <PackageIcon>icon.png</PackageIcon>
    ...
</PropertyGroup>

<ItemGroup>
    ...
    <None Include="images\icon.png" Pack="true" PackagePath="\"/>
    ...
</ItemGroup>
