I couldn't find if this has been suggested before, but I was looking at FlubuCore and how they integrate nicely with the dotnet CLI.
It struck me that this might be a perfect fit for cake too. I mean, wouldn't it be nice to do the following:
-
Restore regular NuGet packages and Cake with its addins
dotnet restore
-
Run the do-the-thing task that you would normally call with build.ps1 -Target "do-the-thing"
dotnet cake do-the-thing
I'm currently using Cake on a few projects here at work, and it's great! This sort of integration would make it even better though. 👍
