### How do I get access to nightly builds?
|
|
|
|
Nightly builds of the Semantic Kernel are available [here](https://github.com/orgs/microsoft/packages?repo_name=semantic-kernel).
|
|
|
|
To download nightly builds follow the following steps:
|
|
|
|
1. You will need a GitHub account to complete these steps.
|
|
1. Create a GitHub Personal Access Token with the `read:packages` scope using these [instructions](https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/keeping-your-account-and-data-secure/managing-your-personal-access-tokens#creating-a-personal-access-token-classic).
|
|
1. If you account is part of the Microsoft organization then you must authorize the `Microsoft` organization as a single sign-on organization.
|
|
1. Click the "Configure SSO" next to the Person Access Token you just created and then authorize `Microsoft`.
|
|
1. Use the following command to add the Microsoft GitHub Packages source to your NuGet configuration:
|
|
|
|
```powershell
|
|
dotnet nuget add source --username GITHUBUSERNAME --password GITHUBPERSONALACCESSTOKEN --store-password-in-clear-text --name GitHubMicrosoft "https://nuget.pkg.github.com/microsoft/index.json"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
1. Or you can manually create a `NuGet.Config` file.
|
|
|
|
```xml
|
|
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
|
|
<configuration>
|
|
<packageSources>
|
|
<add key="nuget.org" value="https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json" protocolVersion="3" />
|
|
<add key="github" value="https://nuget.pkg.github.com/microsoft/index.json" />
|
|
</packageSources>
|
|
|
|
<packageSourceMapping>
|
|
<packageSource key="nuget.org">
|
|
<package pattern="*" />
|
|
</packageSource>
|
|
<packageSource key="github">
|
|
<package pattern="*nightly"/>
|
|
</packageSource>
|
|
</packageSourceMapping>
|
|
|
|
<packageSourceCredentials>
|
|
<github>
|
|
<add key="Username" value="<Your GitHub Id>" />
|
|
<add key="ClearTextPassword" value="<Your Personal Access Token>" />
|
|
</github>
|
|
</packageSourceCredentials>
|
|
</configuration>
|
|
```
|

|
|
* If you place this file in your project folder make sure to have Git (or whatever source control you use) ignore it.
|
|
* For more information on where to store this file go [here](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/reference/nuget-config-file).
|
|
* You can also use the following command `he Microsoft GitHub Packages source can be added easier to NuGet:`
|
|
1. You can now add packages from the nightly build to your project.
|
|
* E.g. use this command `dotnet add package Microsoft.SemanticKernel.Core --version 0.26.231003.1-nightly`
|
|
1. And the latest package release can be referenced in the project like this:
|
|
* `<PackageReference Include="Microsoft.SemanticKernel" Version="*-*" />`
|
|
