Install Telerik Core without Nuget at all

[Ryan]

Hello,

I am stuck behind a corporate network that does not allow me to connect to the telerik nuget feed. How can I install without NuGet? I looked at the MSI installer instructions but it seemed like that installed a nuget package file to use nuget for the install as well. We just need to be able to download the necessary files and add them as references in our project. Not sure which files need to be included etc.

Thanks in advance!

Hello Ryan,

The NuGet package can be downloaded from your account. Navigate to the Downloads section:

select the Telerik UI for ASP.NET Core product from the available products:

 

and under "Other Files" you will find the nupkg file:

You can then store it locally and use it as a reference to the project.

I hope this helps.

Regards,
Aleksandar

I need to download all the relevant files in my local and reference it manually to my project

Something similar to this when i downloaded KENDOUIMVC 2023.2.606..


Now we are upgrading to .Net 8, So we have to download ASP.Net Core version

Hi Renu,

In order to download locally the needed files, I would recommend using the approaches from the following articles:

• https://docs.telerik.com/aspnet-core/installation/overview-download
• https://docs.telerik.com/aspnet-core/installation/msi-install

Kind Regards,

How do I reference the nupkg in the project directly? In the past I have renamed the nupkg to a zip extension, unzipped the files, then manually added references in my csproj file to all of the DLLs I need but I'd prefer to just reference the locally stored nupkg if possible to make it easier.

Nevermind. I figured it out from this link:

How do I install a NuGet package .nupkg file locally to Visual Studio? - Stack Overflow

Precisely added a new package source with a local folder then just installed them all from within the NuGet interface

Hi Ryan,

Exactly, you only need a folder with all the packages (.nupkg files) in there. Then you use that folder path as the package source.

For example, let's say I have a folder named C:\OfflineNugetPackages\Telerik with all the Telerik packages I want in that feed. then my nuget.config file would look like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
  <packageSources>
    <clear/>
    <add key="nuget.org" value="https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json" protocolVersion="3" />
    <add key="TelerikOffline" value="C:\OfflineNugetPackages\Telerik" />
  </packageSources>
</configuration>
