Code quality checker. It’s really neat and worth a few minutes to check out.

If you get an error trying to install SonarCloud on your local machine such as this one:

$ dotnet tool install --global dotnet-sonarscanner
C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\3.1.300\NuGet.targets(128,5): error : Unable to load the service index for source https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/transport-canada/_packaging/DevOps-Nuget%40Local/nuget/v3/index.json. [C:\Users\phungk\AppData\Local\Temp\oovxfjsy.cgm\restore.csproj]
C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\3.1.300\NuGet.targets(128,5): error : Response status code does not indicate success: 401 (Unauthorized). [C:\Users\phungk\AppData\Local\Temp\oovxfjsy.cgm\restore.csproj]
The tool package could not be restored.
Tool 'dotnet-sonarscanner' failed to install. This failure may have been caused by:

  • You are attempting to install a preview release and did not use the --version option to specify the version.

  • A package by this name was found, but it was not a .NET Core tool.

  • The required NuGet feed cannot be accessed, perhaps because of an Internet connection problem.

  • You mistyped the name of the tool.

For more reasons, including package naming enforcement, visit https://aka.ms/failure-installing-tool

It’s because of the private TC NuGet feed.

Open up %userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\NuGet\NuGet.Config and comment out line:

<add key="TC Nuget" value="https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/transport-canada/_packaging/DevOps-Nuget%40Local/nuget/v3/index.json" />

This will allow you to install.

Remember to un-comment the TC Nuget feed afterwards.
