How do I install a NuGet package into the second project in a solution?
There's 3 approaches :).
In NuGet 1.1 (The latest release) we've improved powershell pipelining so you can do this:
Get-Project -All | Install-Package SomePackage
That will install "SomePackage" into all of your projects. You can use wildcards to narrow down which projects:
Get-Project Mvc* | Install-Package SomePackage
That will use wildcard semantics (in this case, find all projects that start with mvc).
Get-Project SomeProject | Install-Package SomePackage
That will install SomePackage into SomeProject and nothing else.
There's two approaches.
As you already learned, the Package Manager Console has a drop down that lists the projects in your solution.
The other approach is to use the -Project flag. Nice thing about that is it gives you Intellisense with the project names! For example:
Install-Package SomePackage -Project MvcApplication2
