Disabling stylecop referenced via dependency

[sakopov]

I have project A and project B, which references it. Project A uses StyleCop code analyzer. Project B does not. When project A is built StyleCop rules are executed and I get build warnings. How do I stop StyleCop from executing in the host project?

You need to set PrivateAssets="all" on the PackageReference, like this:

StyleCopAnalyzers/StyleCop.Analyzers/Directory.Build.props

Line 47 in 921316e

<PackageReference Include="StyleCop.Analyzers" Version="1.1.1-rc.108" PrivateAssets="all" />

Slightly different syntax, but I'm already doing this.

    <PackageReference Include="StyleCop.Analyzers" Version="1.1.0-beta009">
      <PrivateAssets>all</PrivateAssets>
    </PackageReference>

Still no dice as StyleCop analyzers flow to whatever project is consuming it.

Looks like it may be related to a known nuget issue.

Closing, since it's unrelated to StyleCop, but is a known issue in Nuget [1].
