Last week, we released our Revised Download Counts and Package Statistics that are now based on the raw logs of our CDN. For this to become reality, we had to also import data from our old statistics data warehouse into the new system. As it turns out, we overlooked something very important: in the old system (and by importing data, also in the new...

After a few days of work, I’m excited to introduce you to the ASP.NET WebHooks preview support we’ve put together for Visual Studio developers. This tool bootstraps your ASP.NET project with the NuGet packages and configuration code you’ll need so you can add custom processing for incoming WebHook requests from third parties like GitHub, Dropbox, a...

The easiest way to get the update is within Visual Studio, under Tools > Extensions > Updates. (Also read the release notes). As part of this update, we're including a new opt-in ...

On the server side we are working on boosting performance, scalability and reliability. We were also in need of a new status page to better communicate the status of the service. Without further ado: meet the new status.nuget.org! We're happy with this new incarnation of our status page. It not only shows whether individual services are up or no...

These issues where well known, and our solution in the past was to point people to http servers. We discussed this issue with Andrew and suggested that the new supported folder structu...

In the blog Introducing Microsoft ASP.NET WebHooks Preview, we gave an overview of how to work with Microsoft ASP.NET WebHooks. We described how you get out-of-the-box support for a variety of WebHooks providers such as Dropbox, GitHub, MailChimp, PayPal, Slack, Salesforce, Trello, as well as being able to write your own. In this blog we describe ...

Browsing GitHub the other day I found an interesting button in README: Deploy to Azure. This button intrigued me to say the least. With one click I can create my own instance of that web app and try it out. Isn’t it great? And it’s very easy to insert into your own GitHub repo. But every app should include monitoring! So I’ll show you how to extend...
