Deployment Method:

NOTE

This applies to both open source and commercial editions of Chocolatey.

1. Enter Your Internal Repository Url

(this should look similar to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/)


2. Setup Your Environment

1. Ensure you are set for organizational deployment

Please see the organizational deployment guide

2. Get the package into your environment

  • Open Source or Commercial:
    • Proxy Repository - Create a proxy nuget repository on Nexus, Artifactory Pro, or a proxy Chocolatey repository on ProGet. Point your upstream to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/. Packages cache on first access automatically. Make sure your choco clients are using your proxy repository as a source and NOT the default community repository. See source command for more information.
    • You can also just download the package and push it to a repository Download

3. Copy Your Script

choco upgrade choco-nuspec-checker -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'2020.04.06'" [other options]

See options you can pass to upgrade.

See best practices for scripting.

Add this to a PowerShell script or use a Batch script with tools and in places where you are calling directly to Chocolatey. If you are integrating, keep in mind enhanced exit codes.

If you do use a PowerShell script, use the following to ensure bad exit codes are shown as failures:


choco upgrade choco-nuspec-checker -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'2020.04.06'" 
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE

Write-Verbose "Exit code was $exitCode"
$validExitCodes = @(0, 1605, 1614, 1641, 3010)
if ($validExitCodes -contains $exitCode) {
  Exit 0
}

Exit $exitCode

Description


choco://choco-nuspec-checker

To use choco:// protocol URLs, install (unofficial) choco:// Protocol support


Screenshot of (unofficial) Chocolatey .nuspec Checker (Script)

choco-nuspec-checker (CNC) is a PowerShell script I designed for Chocolatey package maintainers/creators to check Chocolatey .nuspec files for common errors and omissions... and automatically fix most of them! Find out AND FIX what the Chocolatey validator is going to tell you BEFORE you submit your package. CNC also goes beyond it's original scope and checks for common Chocolatey install/uninstall script errors and omissions as well.

FEATURES:

  • CNC checks all .nuspec elements and reports any missing or template default values
  • CNC checks for all verifier messages (guidelines, suggestions, and notes) and reports them if applicable
  • CNC checks for dead URLs and reports them
  • CNC checks for GitHub direct links, reports them, and can convert them to various CDN URLs (default=Staticaly)
  • CNC checks for RawGit CDN links, reports them, and can convert them to various CDN URLs (default=Staticaly)
  • CNC can open all your .nuspec element URLs in your default browser for quick viewing
  • CNC checks and reports current status of your package on chocolatey.org
  • CNC can add a standard template header and/or footer to your .nuspec description and replace tokens in it
  • CNC checks nuspec and PowerShell scripts for correct UTF-8 encoding and reports if the encoding is incorrect
  • CNC can re-write your nuspec in UTF-8 w/o BOM format
  • CNC can re-write your PowerShell scripts in UTF-8 w/ BOM format
  • CNC checks all your PowerShell scripts for syntax errors
  • CNC checks for and can add $ErrorActionPreference = 'Stop' to your PowerShell scripts
  • CNC can optimize PNG files in your nuspec directory if PNGOptimizer.commandline is installed
  • CNC can be run from the Command Prompt AND PowerShell

Helps make packaging Chocolateasy!

INSTRUCTIONS:

  • CNC -help for help with options and switches
  • Run CNC to check the .nuspec in your current directory, run CNC X:\SOMEWHERE to check the .nuspec in that directory. (Do not specify the file, just the directory.)
  • To check all your packages' .nuspec files, change to the root directory of your packages, and via PowerShell run Get-ChildItem | ?{if ($.PSIsContainer){cls;CNC $.Fullname;pause}}
  • To update all your packages' .nuspec files, change to the root directory of your packages, and via PowerShell run Get-ChildItem | ?{if ($.PSIsContainer){cls;CNC $.Fullname -UpdateAll;pause}} (no clear screen or pausing)

CHANGELOG:

  • 2020.04.06 - Better error handling when $env:ChocolateyToolsLocation is not defined. (Usually due to running under a different account than installed from.)
  • 2020.01.16 - Updated message related to Markdown heading issues (now a requirement to fix), added Operating System index files checking, added verification that $env:ChocolateyToolsLocation exists (variable, not location)
  • 2019.12.14 - Added checking for Markdown heading declarations that are incompatible with the Sept. 2019 changes to chocolatey.org. (Plan to autofix in a future update.)
  • 2019.09.01 - Added Powershell v3 as a dependency due to Invoke-WebRequest use. Eliminated iwr error for new packages that weren't pushed to chocolatey.org yet, added reporting for packages that are in submitted or waiting for maintainer status, added to the common problems for not a valid XML file messages.
  • 2019.08.26 - "Kicked out of bin release" - script installation endpoint changed. Now works from Command Prompt as well as PowerShell. Additional 7Zip supported formats checked for as binaries.
  • 2019.08.22 - -UpdateXMLNamespace implemented (unreleased due to new moderation demands)
  • 2019.08.21 - added checking for package release notes in description (unreleased due to new moderation demands)
  • 2019.08.14 - now validates the nuspec as a valid XML file and reports common errors, notifies if there is a submitted/unapproved version on chocolatey.org, better checking for failed and trusted package notifications (unreleased due to new moderation demands)
  • 2019.08.13 - minor fix to cinst checking in chocolateyinstall.ps1 (unreleased due to new moderation demands)
  • 2019.03.04 - now checks for msiexec calls in scripts, checks for correctly named install script, checks that install scripts don't use choco commands, checks the XML namespace/schema, cosmetic changes
  • 2019.02.22 - now notifies if the package is trusted and if the package is failing tests on chocolatey.org, -OptimizePNGs superseded by -OptimizeImages which will now optimize BMP, GIF, and TGA files as well as PNG files, added checking for FossHub download links in chocolateyInstall.ps1, more minor tweaks
  • 2019.02.18 - now checks download URLs in install scripts, minor message updates
  • 2019.02.16 - -UpdateScripts will re-write PowerShell scripts to UTF-8 w/BOM (even if EAP statement doesn't need to be added), now checks for and reports templated values, adding the XML UTF-8 check comment now implemented, more updates to summary, added checking for SourceForge download links in chocolateyInstall.ps1, -MakeBackups option to create *.CNC.bak files - this is a breaking change from v2019.01.29 where making backups was default, check for CDATA in description and parse it for problems but not change it when saving, some more tweaks that I forgot before writing this
  • 2019.02.04 - New -UpdateScripts will add EAP statement to script files and re-write out to UTF-8 w/BOM, New -UseGitHack, -UseGitCDN, and -UsejsDelivr allows you to use image CDNs other than Staticaly (default), CNC now gives a summary count of warnings and fixes, now checks for header/footer before adding so duplicates aren't created, now checks all PowerShell scripts (previously only chocolateyinstall/uninstall), cosmetic changes to highlight required changes
  • 2019.01.29 - you can now use the following tokens in your header and footer files: $NuspecAuthors, $NuspecID, $NuspecOwners, $NuspecTitle, and $NuspecVersion - they will be parsed and replaced with the values from your nuspec file, added checking iconUrl image dimensions, new -OptimizePNGs option to run PNGOptimizerCL (if installed via Chocolatey) on PNG files in nuspec dir, added checking for lack of BOM in install/uninstall scripts, added checking for $ErrorActionPreference statement in install/uninstall scripts, now aborts when there are multiple nuspec files found in the same directory, now aborts if nuspec appears corrupt, cosmetic enhancements, now makes a backup file upon updates.
  • 2019.01.26 - "Birthday Release" CNC is now considered "Ready for Prime Time." (I still have more updates planned.) CNC can now write changes to your nuspec file including the iconUrl, description, and XML declaration (Finally!!!), added ability to update the XML declaration, added -UpdateAll and -Update options, updates are written as UTF-8 w/o BOM, cleaned up UTF-8 reporting, added PowerShell syntax error checking of chocolateyInstall.ps1 and chocolateyUninstall.ps1, new -WhatIf option for testing without saving changes, the normal minor tweaks and cosmetic changes. I will keep making it better though, of course.
  • 2019.01.22 - added XML declaration and UTF-8 comment checking, better dependency version checking, a rare verifier message I missed
  • 2019.01.15 - you can now specify a path to a directory containing a .nuspec file to check, misc minor tweaks
  • 2019.01.13 - finished the dependencies checking, all verifier messages (guidelines, suggestions, and notes) now reporting in CNC
  • 2019.01.12 - minor fixes
  • 2019.01.09 - many more checks and warnings added, almost all known verifier guidelines, suggestions and notes added, some beautifications, added option to view Chocolatey validator info page, added optional image GitHub direct and RawGit URL conversions to Staticaly CDN URLs
  • 2019.01.07 - added help, added option to open and view all URLs in your default browser, added options to view, edit, and add "standard" (template) headers and footers to the description (can't save yet), added reporting of standard header and footer if found, added more verifier messages, added checking for descriptions that are too large (>4,000), now checks for license files other than LICENSE.txt, probably more I don't remember :)
  • 2019.01.04 - implemented included binary files checking and messages, laid out the groundwork for the future enhancements
  • 2019.01.03 - fixed some URL checking handling that could cause PS errors, updated list of CDN recommendations, added checking for RawGit URLs in description, cosmetic updates
  • 2018.12.22-2018-12.28 - initial release
