DESCRIPTION

       The  dotnet  workload  restore  command  analyzes a project or solution to determine which
       workloads it needs, then installs any workloads that are missing.

       For more information about the dotnet workload commands, see the dotnet  workload  install
       command.

ARGUMENTS

       • PROJECT | SOLUTION

         The  project or solution file to install workloads for.  If a file is not specified, the
         command searches the current directory for one.

OPTIONS

       • --configfile <FILE>

         The NuGet configuration file (nuget.config) to use.  If  specified,  only  the  settings
         from  this  file  will  be used.  If not specified, the hierarchy of configuration files
         from the current directory will  be  used.   For  more  information,  see  Common  NuGet
         Configurations.

       • --disable-parallel

         Prevents restoring multiple projects in parallel.

       • -?|-h|--help

         Prints out a description of how to use the command.

       • --ignore-failed-sources

         Treats package source failures as warnings.

       • --include-previews

         Allows prerelease workload manifests.

       • --interactive

         Allows  the command to stop and wait for user input or action.  For example, to complete
         authentication.

       • --no-cache

         Prevents caching of packages and http requests.

       • --skip-manifest-update

         Skip updating the workload manifests.  The workload manifests  define  what  assets  and
         versions need to be installed for each workload.

       • -s|--source <SOURCE>

         Specifies the URI of the NuGet package source to use.  This setting overrides all of the
         sources specified in the nuget.config  files.   Multiple  sources  can  be  provided  by
         specifying this option multiple times.

       • --temp-dir <PATH>

         Specify  the  temporary  directory  used to download and extract NuGet packages (must be
         secure).

       • -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 <xref:Microsoft.Build.Framework.LoggerVerbosity>.
