help enable source link for Newtonsoft.Json

[ctaggart]

I created a pull request JamesNK/Newtonsoft.Json#1555.

Meanwhile, I uploaded a nupkg to try out.

You can try it out with the json branch in sourcelink-test:

Here is a video demo using Visual Studio 2017 15.5.2:

I added your feed to NuGet options, but I get an error when I try to browse your feed in VS2017 nuget management UI for available packages:

[source link enabled packages] 'doctype' is an unexpected token. The expected token is 'DOCTYPE'. Line 1, position 3.

@MagicAndre1981 That is a standard NuGet feed from myget. They have instructions here:
https://www.myget.org/feed/Details/sourcelink

It looks like this from Visual Studio 2017 15.5.2:

How I have it configured in VS:

ok, got it working now. I was not able to open the instruction page as guest.

That experience was great 😍😍😍. Can you please enable it for SignalR Client 2.2.2, too? I have issues that I would like to debug easier.

@MagicAndre1981, glad you liked it. SignalR falls in the aspnet camp. You will need to ask them to enable source link. #173. Unfortunately, they are still trying to figure things out aspnet/Universe#131.

[MagicAndre1981]

ok, it would be still nice if you could provide such a package Microsoft.AspNet.SignalR.Client -Version 2.2.2-pdb until they provide it officially 😇

[MagicAndre1981]

Can you please help the Xamarin guys to use it? Their old school way sucks:

@MagicAndre1981 good idea. xamarin/Xamarin.Forms#2165 That article is a great example of the steps required before enabling source link.

Looks like this is going to happen soon using https://github.com/dotnet/sourcelink
JamesNK/Newtonsoft.Json#1746
