LocalPackages Directory

This directory of the repo is used for testing new package deployment in production without needing to publish the package before it is ready.

Placing any .nupkg files in this directory and using nuget restore .\QuantConnect.Lean.sln will allow any packages in this directory to be picked up and used by Lean as a dependency.

Note:

• dotnet build will not use this LocalPackages source, unless you add it to its sources like so:

dotnet nuget add source *PathToLeanHere*/LocalPackages

• Using nuget restore works without adding the source because it will pick up on the file .nuget/NuGet.Config which defines this source.
