f# - Share versions between Paket dependency groups?

Question

In the examples for Paket dependency groups, there is often a "main" and "test" group:

source https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json

storage: none
framework: netcoreapp3.1, netstandard2.1

nuget FSharp.Core
nuget FParsec



group test

  source https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json

  nuget FSharp.Core
  nuget FParsec
  nuget xunit 2.4.1
  nuget FsUnit.xUnit 3.8.0

In order to use a dependency in both the library code and the test code, I can add it to both groups.

But is there a way to say "match the version of nuget FParsec in the test and the main groups"?

Answer 1

I'm not sure - but what if you get rid of nuget FParsec from inside the test group and specify the one from the main group in paket.references?

paket.references

FParsec

group test
    xunit
    FsUnit.xUnit
