Add NuGet package reference when namespace is used

Proprietary

Adds a <PackageReference> to a .csproj only when a C# source file in the same project directory has a using directive that starts with the trigger namespace prefix. Useful for paired add-package-when-type-is-used migrations.

The NuGet package name to add.

The package version to add. If omitted, no Version attribute is set.

The package is added if any C# source file in the same project directory has a using directive whose namespace starts with this prefix. At least one of Trigger namespace prefix or Trigger type FQN must be set.

The package is added if any C# source file in the same project directory has a fully-qualified reference to this type. Useful for types that live in a namespace that's already in scope via existing usings (so the using directive doesn't change). At least one of Trigger namespace prefix or Trigger type FQN must be set.
