Opt out of centralized package management

[janbiehl]

When using centralized package management via Directory.Packages.props files builds are failing when referencing projects generated by the plugin.

To prevent builds from failing the generated projects should opt out from centralized package management. This could either be done via my implemented solution (see changes) or via Directory.Packages.props file that opts out directly inside the generated project.

I don't expect any side effects for applications that are not using centralized package management. But for applications that do use it, it is a nice addition.

Hi @janbiehl, thanks for sharing this with us, This looks like a good default!

However, I would like to handle the case where someone does want to manage packages via Directory.Packages.props and wants the generated csproj to have <ManagePackageVersionsCentrally>true</ManagePackageVersionsCentrally> and the PackageReference to be generated without a Versionattribute.
meaning I want to add support for ManagePackageVersionsCentrally via plugin options.

Do you think this is something you can take on yourself? In this PR? You should have enough examples in the repo on how to create such option and how to conditionally render the csproj based on the option.

If not, please open a ticket for this, and we will implement it for the next version :)

Hey, I implemented the solution as I understood you. I chose not to activate Central Project Management as the default setting.

I also added some unit tests, but I see that some checks are failing. What exactly do I need to do to get the checks to turn green? It's not intuitive to me. Do i have to copy things manually around, or is there a command to get that right?

Hi @janbiehl , great work!

For the fixes
Make sure you have SQLC installed and run:

make sqlc-generate

then
run this to fix all linting:

dotnet format --exclude GeneratedProtobuf --exclude examples

also, please document the added option here - docs/03_Usage.md under the options table

then push everything 🥇 🥇 🥇

This is fine, but if you install the pre-commit this is done for you.
