JarCastingGradle NuGet Plugin 
This plugin allows to execute NuGet.exe from a gradle build. It also supports pack & push commands through built-in tasks, nugetPack, nugetPush & nugetRestore.
nugetPack
You can see this plugin being used for real on il-repack project. (together with msbuild one)
nugetSpec
The task is to generate nuspec file by custom configuration.
Sample usage:
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath "com.ullink.gradle:gradle-nuget-plugin:2.17"
}
}
apply plugin: 'nuget'
nuget {
// nuget.exe version to use, defaults to 4.9.4
// there are three different mutually excluded options for Nuget binary downloading:
// first: define nuget version for download.
// available versions can be found [here](https://dist.nuget.org/index.html)
version = '4.9.4'
// second - set nuget location, which will be used for download:
nugetExePath = "https://dist.nuget.org/win-x86-commandline/latest/nuget.exe"
// third: define nuget executable file, which is already downloaded previously:
nugetExePath = "C:\\Tools\\Nuget\\nuget.exe"
}
nugetSpec {
// Array, Map and Closure could be used to generate nuspec XML, for details please check NuGetSpecTest
nuspec = [
metadata: [
title: 'project title',
authors: 'Francois Valdy',
// id: default is project.name
// version: default is project.version
// description: default is project.description
// ...
]
files: [
{ file (src: 'somefile1', target: 'tools') },
{ file (src: 'somefile2', target: 'tools') }
]
]
}
nugetRestore
Nuget restore is used to retrieve missing packages before starting the build.
Sample usage:
nugetRestore {
solutionDirectory = path\to\project
packagesDirectory = location\for\package\restore
}
Where
- solutionDirectory - could either contain the .sln file or the repositories.config file
- packagesDirectory - used only if a folder with repositories.config is used

password = 'optional password'
configFile = 'nuget.config'
}
