dotnet consolidate
.NET core tool that verifies that all NuGet packages in a solution are consolidated.
Developers typically consider it bad practice to use different versions of the same NuGet package across different projects in the same solution.
The tool finds such discrepancies.
Installation
dotnet tool install dotnet-consolidate --global
Usage
Pass a solution file as a parameter
dotnet consolidate -s YourSolution.sln
or multiple solutions
dotnet consolidate -s YourSolution.sln AnotherSolution.sln
You can also optionally specify the a package ID if you want only a single package to be consolidated
dotnet consolidate -s YourSolution.sln -p PackageId
or a list of package IDs if you want to consolidate multiple, but not all which are referenced in the solution projects
dotnet consolidate -s YourSolution.sln -p PackageID1 PackageID2
Alternatively, you can configure the opposite, package IDs that should be skipped during consolidation:
dotnet consolidate -s YourSolution.sln -e ExcludedPackageID1 ExcludedPackageID2
It's also possible to skip a pattern of versions during consolidation with a regular expression:
dotnet consolidate -s YourSolution.sln --excludedVersionsRegex .*-alpha$
With this, if e.g one of the projects in the solution uses MyPackage
v1.0.0, and another project MyPackage
v1.1.0-alpha, then no discrepancy will be indicated.
If the tool finds discrepancies between projects (only the specified ones if -p is given), it exits with non-success status code and prints these discrepancies.
Examples
dotnet consolidate -s umbraco.sln
✅ Output:
All packages are consolidated.
dotnet consolidate -s Sentry.sln
❌ Output:
Found 5 non-consolidated packages

Testing a development version of the tool locally from source
Run the following commands in src/DotNet.Consolidate
:
dotnet build
dotnet pack
The package will be created under bin/Release
.
Open the folder of the solution where you want to test the tool, then run:
dotnet tool install dotnet-consolidate --local --add-source <full path of bin/Release>
dotnet consolidate -s YourSolution.sln
When you're finished, you can also uninstall it to clean up:
dotnet tool uninstall dotnet-consolidate
