Description

The dotnet nuget sign command signs all the packages matching the first argument with a certificate. The certificate with the private key can be obtained from a file or from a certificate installed in a certificate store by providing a subject name or a SHA-1 fingerprint.

Note

This command requires a certificate root store that is valid for both code signing and timestamping. Also, this command may not be supported on some combinations of operating system and .NET SDK. For more information, see NuGet signed package verification.

Arguments

package-path(s)

Specifies the file path to the package(s) to be signed. Multiple arguments can be passed in to sign multiple packages.

Options

--certificate-path <PATH>

Specifies the file path to the certificate to be used in signing the package.

Note

This option currently supports only PKCS12 (PFX) files that contain the certificate's private key.
--certificate-store-name <STORENAME>

Specifies the name of the X.509 certificate store to use to search for the certificate. Defaults to "My", the X.509 certificate store for personal certificates. This option should be used when specifying the certificate via --certificate-subject-name or --certificate-fingerprint options.
--certificate-store-location <STORELOCATION>

Specifies the name of the X.509 certificate store use to search for the certificate. Defaults to "CurrentUser", the X.509 certificate store used by the current user. This option should be used when specifying the certificate via --certificate-subject-name or --certificate-fingerprint options.
--certificate-subject-name <SUBJECTNAME>

Specifies the subject name of the certificate used to search a local certificate store for the certificate. The search is a case-insensitive string comparison using the supplied value, which finds all certificates with the subject name containing that string, regardless of other subject values. The certificate store can be specified by --certificate-store-name and --certificate-store-location options.

Note

This option currently supports only a single matching certificate in the result. If there are multiple matching certificates in the result, or no matching certificate in the result, the sign command will fail.
--certificate-fingerprint <FINGERPRINT>

Specifies the fingerprint of the certificate used to search a local certificate store for the certificate.

Starting with .NET 9, this option can be used to specify the SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, or SHA-512 fingerprint of the certificate. However, a NU3043 warning is raised when a SHA-1 certificate fingerprint is used because it is no longer considered secure.

All the previous versions of the .NET SDK continue to accept only SHA-1 certificate fingerprint.
--certificate-password <PASSWORD>

Specifies the certificate password, if needed. If a certificate is password protected but no password is provided, the sign command will fail.

Note

The sign command only supports non-interactive mode. There won't be any prompt for a password at run time.
--hash-algorithm <HASHALGORITHM>

Hash algorithm to be used to sign the package. Defaults to SHA256. Possible values are SHA256, SHA384, and SHA512.
-o|--output

Specifies the directory where the signed package should be saved. If this option isn't specified, by default the original package is overwritten by the signed package.
--overwrite

Indicate that the current signature should be overwritten. By default the command will fail if the package already has a signature.
--timestamp-hash-algorithm <HASHALGORITHM>

Hash algorithm to be used by the RFC 3161 timestamp server. Defaults to SHA256.
--timestamper <TIMESTAMPINGSERVER>

URL to an RFC 3161 timestamping server.

-v|--verbosity <LEVEL>

Sets the verbosity level of the command. Allowed values are q[uiet], m[inimal], n[ormal], d[etailed], and diag[nostic]. The default is minimal. For more information, see LoggerVerbosity.

-?|-h|--help

Prints out a description of how to use the command.

Examples

Sign foo.nupkg with certificate cert.pfx (not password protected):
```
dotnet nuget sign foo.nupkg --certificate-path cert.pfx
```

Sign foo.nupkg with certificate cert.pfx (password protected):

dotnet nuget sign foo.nupkg --certificate-path cert.pfx --certificate-password password

Sign foo.nupkg with certificate (password protected) matches with the specified SHA-1 fingerprint in the default certificate store (CurrentUser\My):
```
dotnet nuget sign foo.nupkg --certificate-fingerprint 89967D1DD995010B6C66AE24FF8E66885E6E03A8 --certificate-password password
```
Sign foo.nupkg with certificate (password protected) matches with the specified subject name "Test certificate for testing signing" in the default certificate store (CurrentUser\My):
```
dotnet nuget sign foo.nupkg --certificate-subject-name "Test certificate for testing signing" --certificate-password password
```

Sign foo.nupkg with certificate (password protected) matches with the specified SHA-1 fingerprint in the certificate store CurrentUser\Root:

dotnet nuget sign foo.nupkg --certificate-fingerprint 89967D1DD995010B6C66AE24FF8E66885E6E03A8 --certificate-password password --certificate-store-location CurrentUser --certificate-store-name Root

Sign multiple NuGet packages - foo.nupkg and all .nupkg files in the directory specified with certificate cert.pfx (not password protected):
```
dotnet nuget sign foo.nupkg c:\mydir\*.nupkg --certificate-path cert.pfx
```

Sign foo.nupkg with certificate cert.pfx (password protected), and timestamp with http://timestamp.test:

dotnet nuget sign foo.nupkg --certificate-path cert.pfx --certificate-password password --timestamper http://timestamp.test

Sign foo.nupkg with certificate cert.pfx (not password protected) and save the signed package under specified directory:
```
dotnet nuget sign foo.nupkg --certificate-path cert.pfx --output c:\signed\
```
Sign foo.nupkg with certificate cert.pfx (not password protected) and overwrite the current signature if the package is already signed:
```
dotnet nuget sign foo.nupkg --certificate-path cert.pfx --overwrite
```
